That's what happens whenever Evan and Ron stand next to you, everyone looks... well...different.

Lol I wondered...thought maybe he just lost some weight.

I think this is like the first time in at least 20 years, that not a single BCS Conference team made it to the final Four of the NIT.

2016
BYU
Valparaiso
George Washington
San Diego State

Because the BS teams that could have made it were given a free pass to the big dance.

ETSU down at half 37-39.

Seems it would be a good idea for Vandy to look in-state. Steve Forbes and Dana Ford would both be good options.

Dana Ford is nowhere near ready to run a big time program.

That 2 year turnaround of Tennessee State is pretty impressive. Although I guess Cooper almost did the same thing and his days are numbered at Miami (Ohio). Maybe Vandy will impress and make a decent hire but I'm expecting a total dud. If I were making a hire I would rather take a flyer on a young low-major guy who has won instead of a BCS assistant who has never been a head coach or been a head coach and failed miserably (Capel).

ETSU gave up 65 points in the second half and ends their season with a 104-81 loss.

They got their last coach from Isur. Dan might be interested:)

The concern would not be surrounding recruiting or x and o's. And therefore results. The concern would be around the _integrity_ of the program. Is he capable of leading his subordinates and doing it the right way?

FIVE YEAR ANNIVERSARY FLASHBACK!!!

FIVE YEAR ANNIVERSARY FLASHBACK!!!

Funny how things change. This is who I thought Evan Wessel was going to turn out to be before his injury. Instead, he worked his ass off, reinvented himself, and became one of the best middle linebackers ever seen on the floor of Charles Koch Arena.
