haha...I will agree with you on that...this boards whims change with the wind to fit the narrative they want to make of the situation.
Gary Waters, Cleveland State at NJIT tonight
- Thread starter Local Shill
- Start date
Worst mistake ever firing Waters. My 20 year interest and support of RU basketball began creeping to a halt after Waters was let go and came to a crashing halt after the Mike Rice fiasco. EJ's hiring has brought me back a little, but but it's a tough go.
Waters brought RU basketball back to a baseline of respectability that had been missing since the Wentzel years (and before that the Tom Young era) that we haven't seen since.

We were there...along with former RU staffers John Wooding, John Beisser and Edgar Delarosa. And yes, I had a CSU Vikings hoodie on!
NJIT plays in a building that's dark, tiny and LOUD when packed in tight like it was last night.
Thrilling game despite Cleve St being down their all league pg due to disciplinary reasons. Got to talk with Coach D and GW for almost an hour post game.
Honored to count those guys amongst our friends, and looking forward to visiting Cleveland again in June!

When are we going to see Cleveland State at the RAC?
It's been 9 years it's time for Mr. "They held serve" to let bygones be bygones.

Nice shout out to Larry D'Semplare. Gary had a strong coaching staff. If he included a NY area recruiter on his staff he probably would have been successful at RU.
Interesting in a story yesterday on a competing website Gary says the administration was talking about a practice facility when he was here. bureaucracy at its finest - all talk no action.

I remember being at a Scarlet R meeting at the RAC during the Waters era. One of GW's assistants was speaking to the group. He said then that the greatest need of the MBB program at that time was a practice facility. And that was a long time ago.
