Basketball Talk at Football Media Days
Interesting discussion on C-USA basketball. Glad there is discussion. I know Kermit said he wanted conference wide strength of schedule in ooc addressed etc at the end of the season. It's needed.
Thus far, I'm not real impressed with the early tenure of the new commish. While it is good that they are finally talking about basketball problems, those talks should have started immediately when C-USA fell below a RPI of 20 as a conference. Not only should talks have begun long ago, actions and solutions should already be implemented and executed for this upcoming season.
I hope the new conf commish starts to tackle some of these problems with a little more zeal and promptness. Some of these C-USA schools need to get with the program, you know get with the team and come on in for the big win.
I'm still trying to moderate my opinion of the job the new commish did with the media rights deal. Some slack for her since the job was handed to her shortly before negotiations. Plus, the conf rightly made the media deal short, 2 yrs. Hopefully, the conf and commish can get things together and get improved media rights deal in 2 years.
