            This post being topical, humorous and dated leads me to believe that Dofo's account has been hacked by a sane adult.

                  Guessing NC State would have liked a crack at Larranaga.

                    No kidding. It is bad enough to lose your coach, but to lose him this late in the year puts extra pressure on hiring a new coach and salvaging recruiting. I hope GMU isn't left holding the bag on this.

                      Well, apparently it's still up in the air.

                      George Mason officially granted Miami permission to speak with head coach Jim Larranaga late Thursday night, GMU athletic director Tom O'Connor confirmed to ESPN.com.


                      I guess the big rub for Coach L is that a lot of promises were made by the Administration after their Final 4 run to up grade the program and most has gone wanting, especially after Coach L had turned down his alma mater to stay at GM. The feeling was that the Admin thought he would stay until he retired and now they didn't need to put out. With the GM's meetings with thier coach today, they may have changed their tune to get him to stay.

                        Interesting. If the University promised him things and then didn't follow through I understand him being a little upset and could see that as a reason to leave. However, I'd hate to see him leave Mason for Miami. I don't know what he's getting paid, but Miami, from all accounts, isn't looking to pay a whole lot.

                        Our Mason friends deserve better than to lose their coach this late in the game to Miami of all places.

                            Larranaga made $693,750 including bonuses this year. It's believed that Miami would double his salary.

                                Been following all this on your board. Still can't believe Coach L is going to Miami of all places. Best of luck in picking up all the pieces.
