Bats or dollars?
Oh, they definitely have that in bats but I don't know the going rate for bats these days

As a former Miner as well as Lumberjack, I approve this hire LOL Hopefully, he can get in running in the right direction. I hear their AD isn't....that great... It would be awesome if I could catch one of their games if we travel to play New Mexico next season. Or if we could play them in non-conference, which would be fun for me

I don't know how a staff filters through this. The number of uncommitted is staggering. And, growing.

Ya their endowment growth rate over the last decade was 2nd only to Yale.

We need to poach somebody from their endowment team.

Well, they have $$$ but not willing to spend it on a coach

We need to poach some of there alumni $$$$$. I think our development team is plenty knowledgeable and dialed in. You have to get broader support. More $1000 a year type giving.

Oh we can definitely grow in that area too.

But a lot of ACU's growth is good investment returns. From 03 to 13 they averaged nearly 11%. That's enough to almost double their endowment, twice in 10 years.

Here's a pretty good article on it.

Seems like a nice landing spot. And he's used to playing in an out of the way spot.

It would appear that our path to a WAC MBB championship keeps getting easier and easier.

No wonder he took the UTEP interview. Definitely underpaid at 215k(compared to peers)

Not going to be sad about this one. Dude was going to be a stud. HUGE loss for Lamar...

Kentucky MBB player Terrence Clarke has died from a vehicle accident in Los Angeles. Despite playing in only eight games this year due to injury, Clarke was preparing for the 2021 NBA draft. He was 19 years old.

Not sure where to put this. Word was Cam wanted to get closer to home. This ain't it.

It's not but there aren't a ton of options nearer to home. And Ark/Memphis are on a bit higher level and may not have a spot.

Wow. Figured he was hanging it up. Oh well, he can go get less time in a stronger conference I guess.

Seems like it's speculation on our part if we are interested in LaDamien Bradford from A&M, but looks like he might announce tonight.

LaTech was one of his top choices out of HS, so it makes sense.
