Re: Roan to JMU

This university took a step back when we ran Benson out of town. I'd surmise that I'm probably not as anti-McFadden as you are...but I agree. I loved Dr. Benson. Opinions are subjective, but I think he's arguably the best leader EKU ever had (at least since Martin). That said, he had already interv...

Re: Roan to JMU

Yikes What dirt does Worthington have on Roan. https://www.richmondregister.com/sports/opinion-bye-bye-roan/article_1c6c9ed2-fc41-11ee-b8ab-d3234f846c96.html Yeah. That's what I was talking about. Part of my still wonders if it was just a case of the legalities of firing someone over things that ar...

Re: Roan to JMU

Great post, Roll Kerns. I agree on almost all counts. I'm not sure that I see FBS as any more or less likely than it was before. If we make a good hire maybe that person gives us a fresh new angle. It's way too early to tell, and it's also way too dependent on potential future movement over which we...

Re: Roan to JMU

Not going too much into this because I could go for a while. But Nathan wasn’t going to Eku stuff before the softball stuff happened because he got his feelings hurt. And he’s very sensitive and petty. So hard for me to believe anything he says. Not saying everything he said was wrong, but he’s pro...

Re: Roan to JMU

Nathan from the register *really* unloaded on him. I've liked a lot of what he's done here, but it's not entirely undeserved.

Re: Roan to JMU

I came here to post this. I couldn't gather if it was a "done deal" yet or not, but it certainly seems like there is a lot of smoke. I'm expecting flames soon.

I'm really reaching for a silver lining here, but...advocate in the Sunbelt?

Also, it's interesting that will be Preston Spradlin's boss.

Re: Transfers

Just saw former Colonel Curt Lewis transferred from Missouri to ETSU. It's always a little disappointing to see a kid chase the Power Conference life only to land back in mid-major land...but somewhere else. I wonder if there was any attempt at all from either side to explore a reunion. He wouldn't...

Re: Transfers

I'll add that he must truly value basketball more than his general lifestyle too, because with all due respect to our beloved city of Richmond, KY...Eckerd literally has private beach for students on campus. It's insane!

Re: Transfers

We got a commit from Eckerd College (D2) George Kimble. Sunshine State Conference freshman player of the year. Averaged 19.8 points and 4.6 assists last season. That's so random. It's a really tiny school, but I have a relative who goes there currently. I also noticed off hand that Berea College pl...

I believe the "dead period" is about to end, so we're probably about to see a flood of reports about where kids are going.
