One of the worst, most disorganized Power 5 basketball teams I have ever seen.

Worse. Littlepage was bad but in his worst season he won seven games, and his teams never looked as in disarray as this DePaul team. They won't win another game.You forgot about Littlepage.
Last year's Louisville team would beat this DePaul team by 30.I think Eddie's last team is the lowest rated power conference school ever on KenPom. Depaul might take that honor from us.
Edit: Utah in their first year in the Pac 12 was worse, as was last year's Louisville.
DePaul beat this year’s Louisville team.Last year's Louisville team would beat this DePaul team by 30.
A-10 is right / on par for Depaul.De Paul should not be in Big East period
Drop to Atlantic 10. I think CUSA or AAC is not appropriate for them
Perhaps should drop as low as Mossouri Valley

Quite a few good players during that time but Aguirre was the best.Mark Aguirre...one of the greats.
I hesitate to say stuff like this. People said Rutgers didn't belong in the Big Ten. It just takes the University getting organized and making a good hire. They were top 75 all three years in the Leitao 1.0 era.De Paul should not be in Big East period

Hearing any rumors about any goalies or defenseman moving to the Metro conference?A-10 is right / on par for Depaul.
BE can easily replace Depaul with VCU and/or Dayton.
Heard rumors about VCU possibly moving to AAC (BB only) from A-10.
How puzzling is the Net? We jumped 10 spots because we routed a hapless team.
I thought margin of victory wasn't a factor. Maybe defensive efficiency?How puzzling is the Net? We jumped 10 spots because we routed a hapless team.
not even a comparison given RU always had more resources to pull from but chose not to spend on hoopsI hesitate to say stuff like this. People said Rutgers didn't belong in the Big Ten. It just takes the University getting organized and making a good hire. They were top 75 all three years in the Leitao 1.0 era.
So so so much of this was said about Rutgers. Hadn't been to the NIT since 2006, the tournament since 1992.not even a comparison given RU always had more resources to pull from but chose not to spend on hoops
De Paul has not been to a legit post season and no CBI in 2019 doesnt count since a NIT bid in 2007
They have not been to the NCAA tourney since 2004.
This will be the 7th year in the last 17 that they failed to reach double digit victories.
they were flat out horrific in Leitios 4 of 6 seasons winning 9 games 2x and 5 in the shortened 19 game season during covid
their last 3 hires before they hired an unqualified Stubblefied are just retread has beens...Wainwright, Purnell, Leitio
this is by far the LEAST attractive job of the Power 6
how many fans were in the stands last night in a cavernous arena.
Ru certainly struggled for 25 plus years but it was across the board awful and hopeless as it is at De Paul
De Paul made it from the Great Midwest when they were still relevant as the Big East needed teams to satisfy hoops. Their reputation from the early 80s is long gone. Schools dont have to still be relevant because they once were....look at Fordham, they dont belong in the A10 but still trying to somehow be relevant in a world that passed them by. Duquense and St Bonnies use to have strong programs in the 60s and 70s but especially the former have seen their place diminish.
yeah rutgers was on the list for the Big 10 so.....So so so much of this was said about Rutgers. Hadn't been to the NIT since 2006, the tournament since 1992.
From 2006 through 2018, DePaul went 45-179 in Big East conference play. Rutgers went 50-180 in BE/AAC/B10 play.
I'm certain you can find articles within the past decade calling Rutgers the worst P6 job.
What i remembered about the Littlepage tenure was that some fans wore paper bags over their heads.Worse. Littlepage was bad but in his worst season he won seven games, and his teams never looked as in disarray as this DePaul team. They won't win another game.
We beat DePaul by about 30 in a secret scrimmage. To put things in perspective as to how bad they areI blame this thread for last night.
Seriously. This is probably our worst team since Year 1 of the Pike era and still obliterated DePaul in that scrimmage.We beat DePaul by about 30 in a secret scrimmage. To put things in perspective as to how bad they are
A couple of damn good NJ guards too. Clyde Bradshaw (East Orange) and Jerry McMillan (Barringer)Quite a few good players during that time but Aguirre was the best.
Terry Cummings, Dave Corzine, Tyron Corbin to name a few
I remember no one on the team could dunk. No one!! And this was not the no dunks allowed era....What i remembered about the Littlepage tenure was that some fans wore paper bags over their heads.
