If the figures are close to accurate, the LoyChi coach at 1/2 of what Mooney makes beat Mooney not once but twice this year. Are we getting our money’s worth? Hardt must think so.
For a new coach, how about ...
- Thread starter Gallipoli
- Start date
I mean, yeah, he beat Mooney twice, but he also finished dead last in the A-10, had single-digit overall wins, and had top-level NIL available to him.

How in the world are we behind Loyola Chicago on NIL.
That’s true. I was reinforcing that he makes 1/2 of Mooney’s salary but owned him regardless of everything else.

By that time they'll be playing in front of tumbleweeds and crickets, because the real fans got frustrated and the Lakewood Manor bus ran out of passengers.
It’s late in the day, but I’m nominating this as post of the day.

I give the credit to HPU's president. it's not easy to build a school from the ground up. he took a tiny local college and is fund raising and pouring tons of money into the school. he's doing everything right. build it and they will come.
HPU gets hit in the rankings for the most ridiculous reason ... that they hardly have an endowment. that's because they're spending everything to build it. some stuff they spend on is over the top in my opinion. but widely outspending their conference on NIL is a move that is paying off. they got more recognition in the last 4 days than in the last 10 years. barely heard of them until now.
and they way he's spending, I doubt an A10 level team would be able to pry the coach away. a high major, sure.

I thought Davis did not coach well in that game at all, and also, I would welcome him here as our coach with open arms tomorrow. Virginia native, too!

Another Ben McCollum post but decided to post it here. Look at where the players started their career and McCollum brought to his roster on Iowa and is in the elite 8 year 1. These are kinds of recruits that Richmond could realistically have brought in. It is so obvious that coaching matters. A good coach finds diamond in the rough players and turns them into stars. Mooney tries to find diamond in the rough players and they end up transferring. We have that here at UR with Chemotti taking a bunch of 3 star players and is #2 in the country in MLax and with Roussell who takes players with 0 stars like Doogan who becomes a WNBA caliber player. Why do we have to settle with our flagship sport?

McCollum really should be national coach of the year. The dude just wins. Great coaches win everywhere, like Beilein did. It's why I really want to see Merkel from RMC (a gourmet Beilein assistant) here one day. I don't care if they're D3, they win every year.
