Re: Basketball random stuff
Man, first time checking out how Utah State is doing in Basketball and it doesn’t look like they are missing Sprinkle at all. 18-2.

Re: Basketball random stuff
USU has a strong basketball program. They were good before Sprinkle as well. They lost some key players in the portal when the previous coach moved on so Sprinkle had to rebuild the roster.

Re: Basketball random stuff
The incoming coach also did a great job at retaining most of Sprinkle's roster, with the exception of Great Osobor who followed Danny to UW. Great might wish he had stayed at USU as UW has had a very difficult time of it in the Big 10 so far this year.

Wow, for some reason I forgot that Great got $2 million (!!) to go to UW for a year. I totally retract my comment, I'd leave a Top 25 team for last place in the Big Ten as well for that kind of money.tetoncat wrote: ↑Wed Jan 29, 2025 10:34 pmHe got a huge NIL dealMSU01 wrote: ↑Wed Jan 29, 2025 11:38 amThe incoming coach also did a great job at retaining most of Sprinkle's roster, with the exception of Great Osobor who followed Danny to UW.

On the other hand, the Utah State women's basketball program is PITIFUL. 2-23 record.

Re: Basketball random stuff
I saw today that the Rio Grande Valley Vipers cut Robert Ford III on February 22,2025. Is it true that he has been plagued with injuries since he left the Bobcats? Injuries that prevented him from playing overseas before the Vipers signed him?

I was watching the University of Houston basketball game today. The announcers commented on the emphasis Kelvin Sampson places on offensive rebounding. They evidently practice with bubble on basket to get offensive rebounding reps.

Like Travis DeCuire and Tom Izzo, Kelvin Sampson comes from the Jud Heathcote coaching tree. Sound fundamentals.

Re: Basketball random stuff
Smart move to hire Nate Harris permanently. It was such an obvious move that I'm a little surprised the Griz didn't manage to screw it up somehow. They've finally got a legit D-1 head coach a decade after Robin Selvig retired.

JuJu Watkin’s injury is tragic news for USC and for the women’s tournament.

Re: Basketball random stuff
How many players go with her? I would think the number one candidate has to be Glancy with Feldman a close second. This could gut NAU.

Re: Basketball random stuff
Feldman and Neverson (Big Sky Reserve of the Year) are already in the portal and it would be a shock if Glancey isn't close behind. Coaching changes these days are basically going to require the new coach to start completely from scratch.Joe Bobcat wrote: ↑Tue Mar 25, 2025 9:31 amHow many players go with her?
