Wouldn’t shock me. I wouldn’t be devastated or anything but it would suck

This is what would be the irritating part for me. Carter really stuck his neck out and put his reputation/job on the line to bring him in and help transform the program. If he ditches after just one year then that would be pretty fricked.

If I’m Carter, I’m point blank asking Beard if the rumors of him wanting the job and using back channels to negotiate with Arkansas are true. If he says no then “ok, sign this extension before you leave this room”.

Didn't Beard already sign an extension back in March?

I know it's just women's basketball but pretty surprised you guys hired Hillsman.

Still around. Just made an odd hiring. Hillman basically nuked the Syracuse program when he was there. The whole team transferred out.

Oh frick. Just looked him up. He resigned during an investigation into him having inappropriate contact with players and abuse. 11 of their players were transferring out.

Yeah, what the frick Yo?

According to his wiki he hasn't even worked since being fired. Not even as an assistant for three years. Tried to get a job in Spain but they didn't even want him. That should tell you something.

Hopefully that’s not finalized and Carter doesn’t sign off on it.

Since it's been officially announced, I imagine Keith gave it his stamp of approval. It's a really bad look and Yo and the program deserve any criticism it gets as a result of it.

I have heard he is gone from multiple people on his staff. Coaching searches are the most fluid out of anything but I believe as of right now he’s gone

I wish but the fact that we allowed that PR hit for a women’s basketball assistant is infuriating. I can’t stand coach yo
