Thamel: It’s GMac

[llandz]

Does anyone know when we can expect the press conference to happen? I know the school hasn't even announced GMac yet, but there's only one ACC team left in the dance so it's not like they'd be pulling attention away from anything.

It's called the SU Women's basketball team???? Pulling from their game today. I would figure unless some crazy miracle happens, and we beat UConn without our best player, the announcement will be tomorrow morning. Probably be then even if the miracle happens.

I think NHL coaches are the only ones that still wear them. But they generally stand in one spot the whole game. Kinda funny that the one sport that lets two guys stand toe to toe and punch away is the one where the coaches dress up.

Hoops coaches dressing casually/comfortably during a game isn't something that bothers me.

I'm a boomer, and I say ditch the suits. Nice matching athleticware.

I assume GMac would have to announce he's leaving Siena first.

Did Hodgson do that? I don't think so. He doesn't necessarily have to "announce" it, but inform them.

Nah, at least not publicly.

That’s really good to hear. Melo knows what he saw this year.

Lot of good points here…

That's cool, but it's only half the equation. Those two dudes may not be thick, but they're strong. They play strong. Pace is one aspect, but you can't play at your own pace unless you can withstand contact and still be on balance and in control of your body. Kiyan has to get much stronger. The 'strength he has' is insufficient.

You may be referring to a majority of fans who post on this site. Not a majority of fans overall. As Geno said yesterday, naysayers tend to post more.

A majority of fans who post on this site are definitely more passionate and thus tend to be more critical, true. But the majority of fans overall has been affected differently. First I believe the number of fans must have dropped significantly based on game attendance (announced tickets sold vs a near empty dome) and some of them are not coming back, plus we are not gaining young fans due to the ten year decline and failure to produce a pipeline if NBA stars. Those fans who hung around are having a hard time going to games and making it a family outing if they can't convert their kids to new orange fans. To say the average overall fans are less patient is not unreasonable, they just react differently. The fans on this board will kick and scream and post "remember when we..." threads, the average fan would just turn the lights off then quietly let themselves out.
