There is a rumor going around that Bill Self will be announcing his retirement this week. Guess we will see if it is true but seems to be picking up steam

Seems he has had some significant health related challenges the past few years, wouldn't be surprised if he hangs up his hat.

Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice........
Interesting move, LSU. If this doesn't summarize the NIL era, I don't know what does.
Butler made a very uninspired hire with an alum, NBA assistant, no head coaching experience - Ronald Nored. Tough one to eventually fire in 3 or 4 years when he inevitably sucks as a head coach. They better be careful or they're going to wind up the DePaul replacement at the bottom of the Big East.
Wasn't there a report that Steele was going there, or did I see bad info?

Think he wants Jacque Vaughn to replace him but boosters want someone else if it happens. Wouldn't surprise me if he did it closer to the season to get that
Haha... The name Ronald Nored is a blast from the past. He was a Jim Les-era Bradley recruit in the class of 2008.
Here is the thread about him from April, 2008, and it was started by you, JMM28-
https://bradleyfans.com/threads/bradley-recruit-2008-ronald-nored.8374/
The article linked to in that 2008 post was a Rivals.com article that is no longer accessible, but it mistakenly listed Ronald Nored as having committed to Bradley. But if you had a premium subscription and could read the entire article, it was revealed that he actually committed to Butler.
Bradley had indeed been recruiting Nored, a 6' point guard from Alabama. In fact, this post shows that Nored had visited Bradley before committing to Western Kentucky.
https://bradleyfans.com/threads/bradley-recruit-2008-ronald-nored
After Nored verbally committed to Western Kentucky and Jim Les had commitments from 2 other point guards (Eddren McCain, from Louisiana, and Darian Norris, from las Vegas), Bradley dropped off recruiting him. Nored later switched his commitment to Butler in April, 2008 when Western Kentucky coach Darrin Horn left to take the South Carolina job.
Rivals.com, a subscription recruiting website, erroneously posted the headline with Bradley instead of Butler (seems like that has happened before
)Nored went on to a decent, though not spectacular career at Butler (career avg. 5.8 ppg) and was part of their back-to-back NCAA Tournament Final teams in 2009 & 2010 with future NBA'er Gordon Hayward when they were still in the Horizon League. After finishing his playing career in 2012, he got a job with his Butler coach, Brad Stevens, who, by then, had moved on to coaching the Boston Celtics.

Chris Mack is leaving Charleston for South Florida
Man how many bad hires can be made in one day! This is an awful, awful hire.

Possibly, but who can say? Maybe he is an excellent X&O coach these days. Given the nature of the portal and NIL, how much recruiting skill is really needed these days if schools are essentially just buying a roster out of the portal every year? Will be interesting how these things pan out.
