Alcorn cleans house concerning their basketball programs
- Thread starter In_The_662
- Start date
Both teams were middle of the pack this past season. What kind of expectations did you Alcorn folks have?

Championship expectations. Is that not an expectation for all of the member institutions' athletic programs?

Were your coaches playing with on a equal playing field when it relates to their budget vs the top half of the conference.

That was a fair question. Only Alcorn insiders would know the answer.

JROCK yes it’s a fair question but let’s not pretend that some HBCUs have 50 million dollar budgets.

Not even close.
Yeah, it kinda was. After reviewing the results of both coaches during the time that they both were there I can understand why a change was made. Initially, my comment was made based on this year alone.

Alcorn’s AD has fired his own hires - that ain’t good. Outside of bumping McNair up he has whiffed on most of the coaching hires. But folks need to realize basketball is a imaged based destination sport and location plays a big role now in attracting talent. The Shirley Walker, Dave Whitney ain’t coming back anymore.
