We can agree to disagree that Iona's decision to hire Pitino means that none of his skeletons are too big to fit in GU's closet. I suspect the institutional control issue means a lot more to GU than personal relational issues. Does it? We hired Nickelberry and Broadus and looked at Kenny Johnson. We don't have high standards there.

I suspect the institutional control issue means a lot more to GU than personal relational issues. If only the same concern for institutional control was an issue during one of Ewing’s many mass transfer incidents. This lack of institutional control has led to a terrible APR situation which I fear could be a problem when trying to hire a real coach. A near term loss of scholarships and/or postseason play should weigh heavily in the mind of whomever we try to right this ship. And, if you are Rick Pitino and have a short runway, losing a year or two could be deal breaker.

And what did Pat post/tweet about his seniors? Nada! Heck, it doesn't even have to be Ewing himself - where's the social media guy I thought they had hired? He tweets something out over Ewing's name. What's so tough about that? It almost as if the basketball program doesn't care. . .

Heck, if Patrick (practice? Why?) and Ronny (tv crew for other conference’s games) don’t work every day, but are still paid the big bucks, why work every day at the TAC? Is that the Thompson/Ewing Program’s culture? It’s not like they have a big budget… oh, wait…
