@ConanOBrien Why not both?

UMass Script U golf event today and, oh shit, I need to know what Carvy said to Bamford

[UMassHoopster @UHoopster]

@ol_trevmeister I received a solicitation for the Script U society to donate. I'm sending it back with zero dollars and a note that I can not support them anymore if Bamford is still involved.

[UMassHoopster @UHoopster]

@craigo1918 Thanks man. Go UMass

[UMassHoopster @UHoopster]

Again, I'm spit balling, and I'd probably try to rephrase these in some way. There are a million more questions that need to be asked, and I hope someone has the stones and isn't afraid of Frank. Can't just be Herman, the Gazette, and student reporters. We need accountability.

[UMassHoopster @UHoopster]

I'm no seasoned reporter, just spit balling here:
"Has there been any consideration to restructuring Frank's contract to shift more dollars into NIL?"

"Frank, you preach accountability and 'not getting in your feelings ', do you believe your on court demeanor reflects that?"...

UMass basketball head coach Frank Martin will hold an end-of-season press conference at the Mullins Center on Monday, March 23 at 1 p.m.

He will be joined by AD Ryan Bamford.

[UMassHoopster @UHoopster]

"Frank, you said that the MAC is a 1-bid league, you're not here to win games in November, you weren't hired to win random games on a Tues in Jan, etc. Do you still believe that, and what do you say to the fans that go to games in November for a team in a supposed 1-bid league?"

[UMassHoopster @UHoopster]

@ol_trevmeister Jumping over real quick from Bluesky to endorse this post. If you go to games, you see Jay literally setting up by himself, lugging containers of gear around. He built the podcast studio and cranks out content. He's incredible and works his tail off.

[UMassHoopster @UHoopster]

you all have worn out your welcome with literally nothing to show for it. Please, I know that fat paycheck is sweet, but if you have any respect for UMass athletics, please seriously consider stepping down and letting us get a fresh start.

The UMass men's basketball team has become an embarrassment and an afterthought. This is not the "standard of excellence" we were sold. Far from it. 0-12 in football and in danger of missing the MAC conference tourney in basketball

[Patrick @PatrickFlattery]

This is the worst loss in program history. NIU entered the day at 322. The previous worst loss was at Quinnipiac who was 315. This is the only win NIU has recorded against a D1 team inside the top 300. An unmitigated disaster which will likely result in missing the MAC Tourney

[UMassHoopster @UHoopster]

An unmitigated disaster. Changes in leadership are needed from the top down. This administration doesn't even have the stones to address their dwindling fan base. Gutless, feckless, and guilty of torpedoing a once proud athletic department. Thank God for women's hoops, but...

[UMassHoopster @UHoopster]

@howardherman Can't wait to hear his answer as to why he passed up the FG to get to within 8 for a back corner fade. Terrible decision, worse play call.

[UMassHoopster @UHoopster]

@ctrav24 @BTHoops12 Yes, there was an announcement and something on the video boards for Mike.

@CurryHicksSage Not to rehash old stuff, but they lost their star PG, Luis missed several games with a concussion/broken nose, Cross spent some time in the hospital and blew out his knee, and Diggins was a sophomore at a new school trying to figure it out.

A lot went wrong after a good start.

It was a true honor to write this remembrance story on Mike Babul.

Thanks to Winston Smith, Derek Kellogg, Bruiser Flint and Mike Mannix for sharing some heartfelt stories and memories. I know my UMass people will enjoy this one.

This story is free and unlocked @nehoopjournal

@Gaber205 Yeah, but where is Worthy? Certainly not also in that same exact area. Right?
