Vanderbilt fired Bryce Drew last year, and this article argues that Drew was railroaded a bit (injuries derailed their season, the AD that hired Drew resigned & the new AD just fired him without a meeting).

New Texas Tech “What if…?” Series
It feels like months ago that the NBA suspended its season amid concerns related to COVID-19. In fact, it was less than a week ago. Since then all NCAA spring athletics have been canceled along with suspensions of MLB, the NHL, and just about all other athletic activity across the world. Outside the sports world, […]

My apologies for missing last week’s analytics outlook. Simply stated, life got in the way. But Tech went 3-1 the past two weeks including an unsuccessful but impressive comeback effort in Lawrence, and two tossup wins that have really bolstered the team’s resume; a win against West Virginia in Lubbock and a road win against […]
