I saw Adam W. with Allen Griffin over the weekend in Skaneateles.. I don’t have any info on whether he’s still involved with NIL but hopefully it’s a sign that not all is lost between the two parties.

Lfg!!

His relationship with Griff and Red dont need work by any means. It’s behind the scenes that AW is not happy about. Has nothing to do with current coaches or program

Who picked up the dinner tab?

Some retired guy. Little bit surly. Looks kinda like that Miami coach. Kept reading one of those local real estate listing newspapers.

Anyone know what's the holdup on announcing this? Is there a reason they're keeping it secret at the moment?

We still sure this is a done deal? Heard some Georgetown rumors on the North Carolina forum from a supposed insider this morning and it got me a little nervous. Apparently, Georgetown also wants to hire Straughn to get a shot at Moore. It looks like Cooley brought over his entire staff, so I'm not really sure where Straughn would even fit in there, but the person posting the rumors seems to be a pretty reputable insider on their site.

Likely contractual until after the final 4 concludes on Monday. I’d expect a formal announcement sometime next week

In Dash we trust

I trust Samurai Hoops over a UNC insider with Gtown info

If Cooley brought his entire staff there's no room. He would have to be a non-recruiting assistant. Doesn't seem very enticing.

I believe he brought all of his assistants and even his non recruiting assistant/former player

Will Straughn coach the forwards? If not, who will now that Red is HC?

Has anyone ever told you that you’re forward thinking?

 

[PhatOrange]

I'd suspect much like assistant football coaches having to wait until after signing day, basketball assistants might have to wait until after the national championship game. Just a guess maybe that's when the annual contracts expire.

*edit - looks like i spoke about 3 minutes to soon
