News from a friend who spoke with Kill.

Hinson has 1 year to make post season.  

Any new hires will have a 3 year contract to show significant improvement in their program.

I believe that to be true, but why would he go into the season with just 10 scholarship players. Not much room with a couple of injuries.

I heard the same thing from a friend, but he heard it from a friend who knows one of the assistants. Hopefully, he follows through with it.

What ADs say is meaningless so long as Hinson continues to have the ear of the donors that matter.  Everyone and their mother can think he is an incompetent shyster but if certain donors think he is the bees knees the program will remain a useless pool of mediocre crap.  So "1 year to get to the postseason" means about jacksquat

News flash 

 

the same thing was said said last year. Hinson was informed he was being let go. 

 

Bell was fired instead.  Don’t get your hopes up

I'm with Barkeep.  I'll be convinced when I see PT back in Lawrence booking hotel rooms for the Jayhawks. 

Meh.

Making a postseason this year is completely irrelevant.  7 years for a postseason is completely unacceptable.

SIU is somehow going to make the NIT and BH will be pounding his chest.

Absolutely irrelevant.  The program has not been rebuilt.  The cupboard is pretty bare after this season.  There is nothing left to sustain postseason hopes for any more than just this one season.

Would be nice if he would say that in public so that he could be held accountable for it.

I can’t see Kill getting fired, especially since we will only have an interim chancellor.  Do the donors like Hinson or Kill more?

To the surprise of no one, Hinson has been taking petty shots at Tommy Bell and giving Kill the Greg Cook suck-up treatment in interviews in recent weeks. For someone who hasn't been very good at his job while pulling in good money at a broke school over the past six-plus years, Hinson might want to cool it on the arrow-slinging.

And he will likely be pushing for a statue of himself erected just inside the Arena's main entrance; and a lifetime contract to ensure that SIU makes the NIT every 19-years or so under his great coaching and guidance.

Go Dawgs!

He has absolutely no excuse for not making a meaningful post season tournament this year.  None, zero, nada...….

Example: Greg Cook and his wife were sitting with Mrs. Hinson right behind the Saluki bench for the UK game. Granted, not many options for Saluki fans to sit, but this was no accident.
