Not portal, but going to be. Carm out at Siena: Seems a little quick after one bad year. He got screwed cuz his best teams were during COVID where the he was the #1 seed in 2020 (cancelled) and 2021 (rewarded with Iona in the quarters). I guess is season like that just wont fly with Siena

If you go 4-28 at Canisius or Mount St. Mary's people will grumble but say "you'll get 'em next year, coach."
You go 4-28 at Siena you better be careful starting your car, yanno?

Even right before COVID when they were the 1 seed they were filling up the TUC. Figured they would have given an alum one more seasion

The quotes coming out of his press conferences were a pretty bad look for Siena...lots of blaming players. Not sure how he'd attract new players to play for him.
And I'm not sure if he even used all of his scholarships this season and ended up having to use walk-ons.

Iona has now officially lost every single player with remaining eligibility to the portal. 10 open scholarships and 3 committed freshmen.
This is all very stupid of course, but the NCAA had decades to do something besides hug their precious binkie labeled "Amateurism" and hope no court would ever rule against them. They f***ed around but we're the ones who have to find out.

Don't lay all blame on NCAA - kids have no sense of what commitment means, no understanding of what it takes to be part of a team - they have been taught that last place get trophies, if they don't get their way quit, they should be getting 35 mins a game as a freshman, if someone starts over you don't try to get better and beat out that player just transfer to a place you can play, it is ALL about the name on back of the jersey, do what is best for YOU, do NOT make sacrifices, if you get yelled at you are a victim, education takes a backseat to playing.
Coaches leave all the time though - yeah they also get fired, they have also graduated and are in the real world - college is ANYTHING but the real world.

So sad newbie - I did granted it was back in the late 80's - comeback again when you have a clue. You might not like my take on todays athletes but I believe it 1000%. They are selfish all about getting theirs.
