Hearing rumblings of Beilein to an ACC school... but not the one you think. BC.

Texas still makes so much more sense

Are you changing your username to “-j/k”?

Yeah, I know. That's why thinking about him going to BC is so much more interesting. I mean, maybe it comes down to him being a fan of Mike's Cannoli?

Modern Pastry FTW. Tourists go to Mike’s (Pastry, not Cannoli).

I was referring to the actual Cannoli themselves but I can see how you would be confused. My only trips to Boston so far have been as a tourist, which would explain. Must try this "Modern" Pastry next time I'm up.

Your capitalization of Cannoli threw me off. Modern is right across the street. I was there Friday night. Get the pasticiotti. You’ll thank me later.

Never been to Modern. The few times we've been to Bah-ston, it was Mike's every time, about 2 blocks from the best eggplant parm I've ever had.

Next thing ya know, we'll be talking about Ymm, Beer...

“Leave the gun. Take the cannoli.”

One of my favorite movie lines ever.

Article is behind a firewall.

If I'm John Beilein, Texas would be of no interest to me. He is 67 years old, has made tons of money, has no roots (or likely recruiting contacts) anywhere near Texas, and his son might be having some challenges that could use his attention (I don't know if there ever was an explanation of why he left Niagara so suddenly). Texas is a very high stress job - they have a ton of resources, but also very high expectations. Then again, this is the same guy who gave up a great situation at Michigan to take a high risk position with the Cavs, so who knows what he is thinking.

Imagine Beilein to Wake... that could shake things up in North Carolina...

It would certainly be a bold statement by Wake. I would love it if this happens.

BC are hoop morons, having fired the successful (I witnessed a number of epic BC-Duke battles) Al Skinner. Nonsensical move, they've never been the same since.

I don't miss Skinner - or more accurately the bang-em-up Big East style he embraced. Seth, too.

Was BC a really bang em up type team? I don't remember them that way. I do remember them being able to execute their offense "inside a phone both".

The problem with Skinner was that he was lazy. He was content being pretty good. BC thought they could do better. They turned out to be wrong.

My recollection of those Skinner teams matches jk's. Sort of Greenberg-VT lite.
