The silence from Bevacqua regarding men's basketball is deafening.

Re: while Rick wins B E
I like Pitino, but if we don't get him somehow, what do you think of the chances Bobby Hurley might be interested?-
Level 3
Why in the world would you want to hire Bobby Hurley? ASU became a dumpster fire. He basically
threw up the white flag halfway through the season.
If you want to go the ex-star player route, look instead at Bryce Drew. Yes, he flopped at Vandy, but he's had great success at the other stops and recruits very well.

I like the Hurleys as coaches. I figure he probably coaches similar to Danny. He was more of a
player than Danny. Even Magic Johnson said when the Olympic team was scrimmaging against a team in which he was the point guard, that the Olympians couldn't stop them. I would think some of that skill would rub off on his coaching. I may be wrong because I think you know basketball more than me, yet, I certainly told you and others that the guard we had that transferred to Syracuse was highly overrated and he was.-

It's usually the benchwarmers who turn out to be better coaches.
Gifted athletes often cannot explain how they do what they do and how it makes them better than everyone else. They just do it and it came naturally. The players who had to work to be average usually have a better understanding of what it takes to be successful.
Regardless, Bobby will never be a candidate at ND.
There is someone on X stating that Shrewsberry is interested in the Butler opening. Maybe we will get to see who is on ND's list sooner than we expect?

Interesting. I have had that theory for baseball too. It does seem that an inordinate amount of
bench players become very good coaches.
