hey finally some not depressing offseason news for Iowa

Still need to add another shooter (unless Weiskamp is coming back I guess, but even then they could still use it) and probably a real defensive center.

Twitter guy (@kysportsradio) who has seemingly been first with all the Antigua rumors is now saying that Illinois has put an offer that would make Antigua the highest paid assistant in college basketball. Kind of cool if true.

Rutgers lost out on Paulicap to West Virginia, and is still looking for a backup center.

They ended up passing on Josh Baker though when they landed Aundre Hyatt from LSU. I'm feeling okay if they just can get a solid backup C who has a pulse. It will be difficult to get anyone better than that with no chance at starting.

She's from Louisiana, maybe just still has ties there and wanted to get back closer to home. Plus her kids are all grown and out of Waco, I think, and she's divorced, so there probably wasn't a lot still holding her down. Anyway, good on her if that's where she wants to spend the tail end of her career and retire, she certainly didn't have much left to prove at Baylor. She provided some bright moments in dark times for that athletic department and that school as a whole.

every new detail that drips out from the Cincinnati mess makes it all look that much worse

https://twitter.com/MrKeithJenkins/status/1389327506294071309?s=20

while Brannen sounds like a real dick, this all is also in the context of Cincy taking tens of millions out of the general fund that is supposed to pay for things like professors to cover the huge amounts they've been sinking into big-time athletics, so in general i hope they faceplant, both because it would be hilarious to watch Wes Miller fail, and because friends of mine who actually teach there say the campus environment gets worse the better the football/basketball teams are because the admin has such a hard-on for athletic prestige that it'll sacrifice almost anything else to keep it

VT lost AHC and top assistant Chester Frazier to his alma mater Illinois. Looks like we're attempting to replace him with Mike Jones, head coach of DeMatha. Would be absolutely huge for recruiting the DMV, and there seems to be some smoke there. Fingers crossed.

Demanding 17 months severance after being fired in return for staying quiet about alleged recruiting violations is a pretty cut and dry definition of extortion. Enjoy the jailtime, Dino.

That said, if the allegations are true and happened when Gaudio was there, that means Louisville was committing recruiting violations while not only on probation for recruiting violations but also still under investigation for different recruiting violations that got the last coach and AD fired. I'm all for paying the players and/or NIL rights, but that doesn't mean I don't get a little bit of joy watching Louisville continuously shoot themselves in the foot.
