That's what I thought.

 

[AZmessDAWG]

Shut the fuck up.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

These post always make me laugh. Massive reaping, like we didn’t almost miss the conference tournament and have 2000 people at our games.

Reaping occurs on message boards only.

 

[douglasbader]

Shut the fuck up.

Make me.

No bullshit, it's official. McCollum signed and at least 2 guys (Stirtz for sure) coming with him. Dix might stay now.

 

[Hawk&Balls]

Mccollum, stirtz, dix and no harding or freeman?


Big dick beth did it again

 

[ivan_drago]

Looks like the slapdicks who cry every time a local person doesn’t break something will have to find something else to complain about.

 

[Revolver]

Keep Dix, Koch, and Traore.

This list will obviously get a lot better in a couple weeks. 5 hawks in the top 20 portal options right now. Getting dix, koch and pryce back is probably realistic.

Well he basically paraphrased a Trilly post.

 

[kenos]

No bullshit, it's official. McCollum signed and at least 2 guys (Stirtz for sure) coming with him. Dix very likely to stay now.

Now convince the '25 class to recommit/stay committed, and Johnson-Arigu to stay.

Congrats your boy finally got a scoop!

I did edit to say Dix might stay now. He's getting chased heavily by big big programs and the money might be too much to turn down.

Help is on the way.

 

[BuffettHawk]

If everything we’re hearing is accurate, Big Dick Beth did a good job with this one. A respectful dismissal of the long tenured coach, a substantial increase to NIL, and then landing one of the most sought after candidates in the field in about a week’s time after the position opened.

She lost out on her first choice to a blue blood, but that was out of her control for the most part.

 

[AZmessDAWG]

Keep Dix, Koch, and Traore.

He can go.

 

[LifelongHawk]

Hope Beth or Swarm or somebody has ben in contact with Josh Lewis. Or Ben is this morning.

When did he break this news? HALO broke it on Thursday night.

 

[ivan_drago]

LOL. Nevermind, it took 15 seconds to say “actually Trilly got it.”

Jesus Christ.

 

[ivan_drago]

I just hope they don’t pay Stirtz too much.

If the Indiana talk was already happening then DeVries to IOWA was a swing for the fences/bargaining chip

 

[BillyBob]

I preferred McCollum over Devries.

A little concerned about all the whites, however.

 

[Revolver]

Jesus Christ.

you’re the only one bitching about anything, Ivan. This is a joyous time.

 

[YugoslavianMountainHound]

I wanted DeVries more but that was probably just because it was going around that was the top pick. After following more closely I think McCollom is the better choice.

Devries would’ve been better, but McCollum is the absolute best available.

 

[Revolver]

Devries is likely better short term. McCollum is likely better long term.

 

[kenos]

Dix
Koch
Pryce
Johnson-Arigu
Diakite
Briscoe
Traore
Stirtz

That's a decent foundation for year one

 

[Revolver]

He can go.

I like him as a defender. Not like he is a must, but he’s there already.

 

[Iowatheltics]

 

[Squat Cobbler]

If you can’t or won’t play defense you can GTFO.

 

[Revolver]

Gimme a Jon Rothstein official post.

 

[HiawathaHawk]

Stirtz, Banks and Howard are the three who could come with him from Drake. Maybe Manyawu but he might be a tweener.

 

[Fritz Fequiere]

I was pretty bummed about Devries until I watched Drake beat Missouri. The passing and defense was a sight to behold. We’re gonna be good again and soon.

 

[Stu Beagle]

Definitely a more splashy hire than our last 2

 

[Fritz Fequiere]

I’ll be pretty surprised if Dix stays but I’ve always thought he was best suited for more of a half-court type style. He’s stronger than he is fast.

In line with the Alford hire of the “hot coach” but I don’t know that people were raving about Alford being a savant at that time? I was young, though, and the media landscape was obviously much different.

People were raving about his ability to lead and motivate.

That turned out well.

McCollum is a much, much better hire. The proof is in the game film. No snake oil.
