Alcorn cleans house concerning their basketball programs


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.
Ghostwriter you make a good point. However attracting players is not as tough as it may seem. The men's coach won with the players Luther Riley recruited then he start going the JC route in GA and lost ties in state. That's what killed him and he was not that good of a coach in my opinion.
 



How , we were talking basketball, and he brought up football. SU has the most SWAC basketball championships.

This is not true. Alcorn has the most regular season championships, followed by Texas Southern. We may be within five or fewer behind Alcorn. Southern has the most tournament championships, followed by Texas Southern. We are one behind SU and we would have tied things up this year.

The tournament championships is what counts, that’s who gets the commish cup points.
