Honestly I'm surprised that any students have an opinion one way or another in the men's basketball team at this point. It's impressive if they know we have one.

I think you offer him the buyout and allow him to take a "retirement" option with some type of other role in the AD's office if that's the only way to mitigate whatever we would otherwise owe him. But you do NOT give him any ability to pick the next coach. It really all depends what we owe him...

The way this ends after this season is like this: * Mooney's last extension was carefully crafted to give us an easy out for little or no actual buyout. * We finish the year as poorly as we are playing right now. * Mooney realizes the game has passed him by, he doesn't want to start over with a...

Listening to the coach's show right now sounds like a eulogy of the Mooney Era, given by Chris Mooney. He is clearly done.

I think the narrative is that they told her she was fired effective at the end of the season and she said "Fine, I'll leave now." That's what the press release I saw seemed to indicate. Her contract was up at the end of the season, too (imagine that, coaching without a 4-year recruiting cushion?!?!)

Feb. 1 and we've already been thinking about next season for weeks. What an indictment on the "program."

Difference is the Bills moved on from an excellent coach and Brady is a very highly regarded/sought-after coach. Mooney is not an excellent coach and doesn't have any highly sought-after assistants.

Seems to be moving it downward. Mooney has had two of his worst seasons ever since NIL began in earnest.

If he's so worried about retaining Mooney as a friend after 21 years, then I'd say they were never really friends.

Could we hire that security officer for our next game?

If Mooney quits or is fired and we hire Will Gipe, I'm changing my name to Two Horner and becoming a vcu fan.
