    And Dakich resigned today. I think West Virginia should kick in some money as a thank you. As the Mountaineers on this board (and there are a few on here) know, it was Dakich who orginally took the WVU job after good ol' Gale quit in the middle of the season, then went back to BG after he found out about Jon Hargett's hometown "benefactor." Because he left, WVU got John Beilein, who has taken the team to two NCAA tournaments and two NITs.

    Thanks for helpin' us out, Danny. We'll burn a couch in your honor.

    I enjoyed watching Dakich's teams play. They were well constructed. He just seemed to do a horrible job recruiting.

    How long will it be before Dakich shows up as an assistant in Lubbock?

    She'll be happy. He'll be closer.

    Another rumor I heard is the Bucks don't want to lose Krystko and might fire their coach sooner than later and promote the old Griz to head coach.

    Isn't stalking someone across state lines a federal offense?

    Spot on, Ides... Terry Stott shown the door today...

    The Cleveland PD reported yesterday (I think it was yesterday...) that Utah got permission to talk to Jim Christian of Kent State....

    Absolutely correct.

    I don\'t know if his wife\'ll let him leave the big city again. She\'s a big reason he left Missoula.

    Not only am I posting twice in a row, but I'm quoting the same post :D

    Bucks have fired their coach. Guess Larry's not coming any closer to me now!
