    Will be interesting to see how this all unfolded. I doubt Mack turned down Xavier, and I doubt Pitino turned down Nova for the Xavier job. Seems to be a lot of misinformation out there.

    Would be top 5 backcourt in the country.

    We can dream right?

    I’m glad I heard that because it’s a reminder tonight could have been worse.

    Here's NM's statement on Pitino. These guys all obviously start from the same form and just tweak around the edges.

    I watched most of the MSU/N Mexico tourney game, and thought N Mexico got jobbed by the refs.

    “They’re big, they’re strong, they’re athletic. They had some blocked shots from behind that I hadn’t seen all year. Certainly, there’s another level of athleticism that we’re not used to,” Pitino said about Michigan State. “We knew they’d make us earn it. I was wishing we could get to the foul line a little bit more. We did not. Making five free throws versus a very, very physical team is hard.”

    I actually respect the hell out of GC for this hire. He went with the higher ceiling hire as opposed to the higher floor. His legacy will depend on how this goes.

    Disagree. Happy to have that debate anytime

    Agreed. Unless you’re including success outside of Xavier, too. Then I can see it

    Norlander reported Greg flew to NM to get it done. No clue where the Mack stuff was coming from, probably just if Pitino didn’t accept. A lot of donors were stunned

    Some shit is just crazy. Buzz has TAMU in a pretty good spot. They finished in the top 3rd of the SEC. Texas finished 3rd from last. Texas takes out coach and then we take a TAMU.

    Makes no sense. But none of it does
