You can't even blame that on your phone's auto-correct.

Why hasn’t anyone just called and asked Lowery if he’s going to be hired this week?

Good ups for Thibs winning NBA coach of the year narrowly over Monty Williams someone on our radar during our BU hiring. Great to know that we had great options, very good screening and vision. Hope his rating doesn't go down because of this.

I called ... said I was calling for a friend. He said that Larry hadn't officially said no yet, which was holding everything up. Fingers crossed.

When I first heard that...All I could think of was: Aww...POOR You.

I sincerely like Underwood. The man‘s definitely paid his dues. I get the “It’s screwin’ with my golf game...“comment was supposed to be funny ha-ha.

But, there‘s just something about a millionaire bitching about his golf
game that doesn‘t sit too well with me.

So it upsets you that a guy you like worked very hard over a long period of time and is doing something that literally millions of others regardless of net worth also do on their vacation?

He's probably answered innumerable calls along the way as well. Hard to find an activity that better gives you the chance to be productive in your business while you're enjoying it.

For me, it's the challenge of finding golf enjoyable.

BU is on the golf course. Don’t interrupt him with all this assistant coach talk while he’s putting.
Lmao funny part is a good friend of mine has been giving BU and some others golf lessons. Told him to get me some good insider info, alas he won't talk BB with him... Guess he will be removed from my friends group.

Did tell me Brad is pretty good...

It's interesting how the kids of coaches will talk about how the job is a 24/7 gig, and they don't see their parent much... but fans think coaches just play golf all day.
I didn’t say anything about playing golf all day. I like golf as much as the next guy.
Hats off to millionaires. Yes, he’s probably been pestered by innumerable calls
on the golf course.

However, one of the coaching staff’s main jobs is to recruit...it’s his job.
The university pays him nearly 4 million with incentives to do his job.
Recruiting IS definitely one of the biggest parts of said job.

I’m sure its a pain in the !!!. But I’m sure the trade is more than worth it.
I’m not the only one out there that thought that statement came off a bit entitled.

I can't speak for what others said.. but what I said wasn't directed at you or anyone else. Moreso just a general comment.

I have no problem with BU playing golf. It is a stress reliever and its good to get out. He has had multiple players visit over the last few days so a day of relaxation is fine. BTW, it takes me 2.5 hours to play 18 holes of golf in a cart. At most, depending on the crowd, it would take him 4 hours. Many on here focus on the wrong thing or they are too busy making inane stitck comments on here trying to be funny. BU knows what is going on. We can only speculate. June has always been a quiet month so let us relax and let BU handle things.

Oh my goodness, a wealthy person made a joke about golfing. Totally inappropriate!

Seriously, go look over at the recruiting thread if you think he somehow isn't getting his job done. They're hitting the recruiting trail hard.
