"The mens basketball team of Northwest Florida is back home, national title trophy in hand. The team making it back to Niceville around two a.m. Monday morning. That after the long bus ride home from Wichita, Kansas, after winning that program’s third NJCAA national championship. The title coming Saturday night following the 83-67 win over Salt Lake. The Raiders, under the guidance of first year coach Greg Heiar, sharing the conference title with Chipola, then lost to Chipola in the semifinals of the State Tournament. They went to Hutch as the ten seed, and won five straight games in six days! An exhaustive run, but coach Heiar telling us it was well worth the effort and energy. Greg coming in and taking over a team that was 6-15 last year. And here they are 31-5, and national champs!...."-https://www.wjhg.com/2022/03/22/greg-heiar-talks-about-winning-it-all/
This is your "no brainer" Kap.
Bu then again NMSU can go fly a kite.

Unless NMSU or Moccia releases a statement about it, this is just “internet rumor”. Get a press release for @UTEPfan1966 so will be able to verify later. Hopefully Seattle, Grand Canyon, and UNM aren’t trying to pluck these coaches too!
Gotta give a shout out to my 2nd favorite college basketball team.
WAY TO GO COOGS!!

I had forgotten about this tournament we played in. Looks like the organizers got their east coast vs west coast matchup they wanted.
Logistics issues - very much on brand for the tournament.
Fresno beat Southern Utah by 20. Maybe we inadvertently dodged an even bigger beatdown.
It's interesting that Fresno State had to travel, since they had the higher attendance numbers.
Yes, they did. They also shot very well, making several threes, especially in the first half. The game was really over at half time. I thought Meah played better than I thought. Stroud comes off the bench and had a couple of buckets. Honestly, I think he would have been better off going to a school where he could find more PT. Just too many guys ahead of him. Maybe he will get more time next year.
Self employment has its benefits, I guess?

Eric Church cancels sold-out concert to attend UNC-Duke Final Four showdown
What could be more important to Eric Church than playing to a sold-out crowd at AT&T Center? Watching his beloved Tar Heels battle the Duke Blue Devils for a national title berth, that's what.

Bands do this all the same, but they just give bogus reason such as "scheduling conflicts". At least he was upfront about it.
I am not quite so sure about that. Do you remember years ago how the board was pumping up Texas-Arlington when they came in and beat us. Their potential has never really materialized. It may have been more of us over hyping them, or thinking our team was better than it was. Not sure.
The transfer portal also can devastate you, or give you lightning in a bottle. From what I have seen it seems to make the rich richer, and the poor poorer.
I hope you are right, as it would be nice to see, but it is really hard to remain consistent, and you see more single good years than multiple.

Can’t argue with the facts of the portal world. I remember all that UT Arlington love on here back then.
However they have a great coach.
Hopefully we will have a team that can compete and win!
On Jayden Martinez, I saw a bunch of his games in high school, and I definitely wouldn't have projected him as an impact D1 level player. Now, I get to see him at North Texas. Happy for him. Again, it shows how difficult it is to project high school players. I can see the appeal to college coaches of recruiting guys who have already had some success at the D1 level via the portal.
