That guy used to be the manager at the Chuck E. Cheese near my house!

Idaho...anyone remember Tanoka Beard?

 

Cal fired Ben Braun today. That could be a very good job, you can sell a Stanford-quality education without the Stanford-level academic requirments for recruiting.

 

Hell yeah! Here's to hoping he returns to Eastern Michigan.

 

Missouri State hired Cuonzo Martin today.

Enjoy MSU's fans, Cuonzo. They have this funny misconception that they're owed a NCAA tourney appearance every year, despite very little history to back that up.

 

I'm sure after nine NCAA-less years under Hinson, they'll be happy to just have one.

 

He could return to eastern Michigan ... Detroit hasn't filled its opening yet.

 

Is any school out there interested in Rob Jeter?

Please?

Pretty please?

 

I had heard some rumblings that Toledo was a possibility for him.

 

Not likely. Hinson won 19 games a year during his time and was jobbed out of NCAA appearances in '00 and '06. Didn't matter. You'd think they were Kentucky the way they helped run him out of town, despite the fact the majority of their NCAA appearances can be traced to their days in the Mid-Con.

 

The old Mid-Con ... miss that conference:

Southwest Missouri State
Cleveland State
Northern Iowa
UW-Green Bay
Western Illinois
Eastern Illinois
Valpo
UIC
Northern Illinois

 

Sorry, but memories of PeeWee doing the Bunny Hop belong at Bowen and only Bowen.
But since Calihan's a barn too, U-D would not only be a good place for him, but a refreshing chance from Velvet Jones

 

Man, that would be quite a comedown after California. But the Titans could get him fairly reasonably since to his $1 million buyout.

I still can't call it Detroit-Mercy.
