    He would be a good hire. He's done bad in the NBA but the Bulls are a mess.

    The logic that hiring Hoiberg to keep Porter Jr is beyond FS. The only thing that keeps Porter is if Porter Sr is hired as head coach. And that is beyond beyond FS.

    Nah, there are other ways to keep MPJ, all of which involve hiring a HC who will hire Porter Sr, and being willing to outbid everyone else for Porter Sr's services.

    How is porter Sr getting hired on by whatever school his son goes to not a recruiting violation? Is this a normal practice? Im sure it's happened before but this porter bullshit is the first I've ever heard of it

    Goes all the way back to Ed and Danny Manning in the 80's.

    So the NCAA is okay with that, but if a coach buys a player a hamburger at BK, it's a violation.

    That SHOULD be a violation. Why in the fucking world would you buy a recruit fucking Burger King unless you were trying to steer him away?

    #themayor is a good coach, but I dunno if he's a good fit as a west coast recruiter.

    Fuck them period ...

    Fuck Romar for trying to buy Porter's kids by putting pops on staff at a compensation level greater than his other assistants ...

    Fuck Porter for pimping his sons out for a college assistant job and collecting money for doing nothing more than having good offspring ...

    Fuck the Porter's for getting home schooled and really only showing up on the Hale campus to play basketball ...

    Both of the kids are good to great players ... I have nothing against them per se ...

    But at the same time, the only reason they entered the mindset of the University of Washington was because of some shady bullshit ... easy come and easy go

    Their personal relationship with Romar played a role as well.

    Not debating the Manning-esque shade factor, but who cares? It's not even against the rules.

    They're great players. Romar's abilities as a HC aside, I want great players on the team, even if they don't BLEED purple and PISS gold.
