"Mason made a significant commitment to its athletic programs, especially men's basketball, when the university moved to the Atlantic 10 Conference two years ago,"
"The university has high expectations for the program and thus determined a change was needed."

Note that there's nothing in the university press release about launching a national search for Hewitt's successor, so on and so forth.

Don't know for sure whether that means anything, but I am optimistic the other shoe will be dropping in very short order.

I was right when I created this for the other thread!!!!!! LOL

Jim,

So, when will Darrin Horn be announced as the new head coach?

You can't be serious.

 

[Pablo]

You can't be serious.

As I posted on another thread, I believe that he's the former coach that Jim's source was referring to.

Just donated $50 to the Patriot Club, who's with me?

I've never seen the fanbase more united (excluding NCAA wins). It's been great.

I'm about 99 percent sure you're wrong, Pablo.

My guy said it would be a "significant" hire. I don't think Darrin Horn qualifies, but as I've stated a million times, I could be mistaken.

 

[bravesfan]

Can somebody post the news from GoMason.com?

I already had the link posted, but have edited to also quote the text now so nobody has to click off if they so choose.

GMUBrian has been notified and has opened his checkbook

So, why not ask your source to confirm that he was not referring to Horn?

 

[GSII]

GMUBRIAN welcome back????

 

[gmujim92]

I did, he won't talk specific names. But do Darrin Horn and his 60-63 record at USC sound "significant" to you?
