lmfao.....4 tops....3 is more likely.....guess we'll find out next year, won't we?

you really just came with temples........wow....did they hire lon chaney IV.....give me a fkn break.

See it is statements like you just made about Temple that shows that you don't watch much basketball other than CUSA. Did you know that Temple is top 10 all times in NCAA wins? Only Kentucky, UNC, Kansas, Duke and Syracuse have more wins. Temple had 5 Elite 8's under Cheney. Before this season Temple had been to 6 straight NCAA tournaments. That school has 2 final fours and a national championship back in 1938 and in the 50's. I am shocked at how little you know of Temple's basketball history. History says that they will be back in the tournament shortly.

you're missing the point of how watered down things are going to become in the aac.....both conferences share the same problem....

it's helpful to be forward thinking.....if I didn't know anything about hoops, how did I come with the lon chaney ref???? yeah, I know it is cheney...

none of what you said means diddly moving forward.....

You are missing the point. The A10 got 6 teams into the NCAA tournament this year. When Temple returns to form then the AAC is going to be one of the deepest conferences in college basketball. UConn, Cincinnati, Memphis and SMU are locks. What people are failing to realize is the rich, rich basketball histories of Temple and Houston. Hell Houston just dropped the big one in hiring Kelvin Sampson, because that guy is a proven high level college basketball coach. Houston is almost a lock for the NCAA's next year. I am pretty sure that Temple is too, because they have plenty of talent; but just like any program they had a down year.

This goes to a larger issue though. Even if I don't like certain teams or coaches; I can acknowledge that they are good and have a good history. For some reason people are begrudging schools like Temple and Houston their due. Temple has been really good over the decades and if you are old enough to remember Elvin Hayes and Phi Slamma Jamma then you know what the Kelvin Sampson hiring means for Houston.

Misery loves company topped with ultra delusion. Temple has had 6 tourney appearances in a row, save last year.

you haven't figure out that the most recent is what matters, have you???

Recent tells me 0-12, 1-11 but I am smart enough to know 2 years dont define a program.

This is recent too, belongs to my son. Guess who they beat to get it?

Very well. I am glad you are still enjoying the win. Because otherwise,I dont think you would have made it through the last two seasons, but don't mind me, carry on.

UH put serious coin towards the BB program. 77M for refurbished Hof and a practice facility and top go with 4.5M contract for Kelvin Sampson, a proven winner coach. This type of commitment towards BB is unprecedented in the history of the program. All this is being done so we can make tourney on a regular basis. I think UH will make a tourney in worst case scenario in two years.

youston has dropped enough big ones it looks like diarrhea. Penders, Drexler etc. I remimber PSJ, heck i watched them in nola in the final 4. If a nba guy and their hero cant bring the program back this guy dont have a chance.
Below the power group, leagues dont mean squat anymore.
Now couple that with Cincy's new ad saying they were looking to leave, uconn saying they weren't worried about a league, they were worried about uconn. Both will be gone first chance they get. Just like all of you yammered about leaving from day one in cusa. When the dust settles, you gonna have the original cusa minus louisville and the ones you didn't want to bring along. The bids will dwindle from 3 next year to one each year in memphis.

He's right....and you know it in your heart.....

Memphis is going to be the leader moving forward.....

Cincy has nowhere to go.

I still contend that when the others leave, it's a no-namer +2 or two teams tops.....

I've said this from the exodus get go....cusa hoops can be very good in just a couple of years...that the top 6/7 will be better than 2.0

good luck with houston hoops.....I have no ill will towards your program

Looks like they did just that lol. Who in their right mind would hire this guy?

the aac... where dreams go to die... Why don't you aac fans go to your board, enough of the sugarcoating. 3 bids this year, 2 for the next. Your conference is on a downward spiral.

Where's your proof . A national tv contract ensures good hoops for years to come. If we had no exposure I would agree with you. But having the type of v contract the AAC has means good players will come to the AAC. I think the biggest thing holding Conf USA back is the tv issue. If BB can find a way for more xposure Conf USA will thrive.

I don't have any more info than my 13 yr. old poodle about the coaching search. But it seems most coaches say nothing but positive things about their current situation, their current school, and their current team, while frequently negotiating at the same time with some new suitor.

Cal may be particularly vile in that regard--he said "there's no place I'd rather be than Memphis" when Memphis matched UK's offer, and then was gone 2 days later. I don't think he's that much of an exception though.

So who knows what will happen with any current coach.

yeah, you aac fans are only on this thread to troll C-USA fans. This thread is not doing anything positive for anyone in its existence.

The funny part is that the thread underneath this when I saw it was the one about White signing a contract extension.

Please delete, duplicate post.

Sampson's $4.5 million is over 5 years, $950,00 per season.

Can anyone answer my question about White's contract? Has it been approved and funded by the Board? What is the buyout?

RUSTON – Louisiana Tech University and head men’s basketball coach Michael White have agreed in principle to a six-year, $3.6 million contract extension, according to Athletics Director Tommy McClelland.



The new long-term contract extension is pending the approval from the University of Louisiana System's Board of Supervisors

It's beyond sad that 75% of every post on either the CUSA board or AAC board turns into the same pissing match. Geez!!!

That being said, Tyndall nor White will be leaving their current school for Tulsa. Period. Tulsa is a fine school, but it's not the step up these guys want or need to make a move.

And to the guy that compared Tyndall leaving Moorehead St to go to USM as a lateral move....... Wow.

If it's not a P5 school, it's not worth the move.

Larry Eustacy left USM for Colorado State. Hell Donnie Tyndall left Morehead State for USM. So That type of thing happens, but that does not mean that it will. Dooley sounds realistic. He is actually a pretty good coach and he recruited that area for Kansas, so he will undoubtedly be a really good recruiter at Tulsa.

Eustachy couldn't get out of Hattiesburg fast enough. He hated it here. Tyndall loves it here.
