There's not enough recurring revenue at NU or UB to sustain revenue sharing. Bona has a decent shot because of their history.

Once upon a time a student athlete named Bob Lanier from Benett High School wanted to go no place but Canisius College. But we wouldn't accept him. So he went to Bona. And we're still trying to live it down.

Respectfully, I'm beyond tried of rehashing decisions from 50 years ago. Lanier wasn't a Griff. Canisius didn't join the Eastern Eight. I don't care about any of that.

Niagara and UB barely have enough revenue to sustain what little they have. Their staffs are revolving doors. It's not going to magically improve if they redistribute some of their little revenue to student-athletes. St. Bonaventure is going to struggle with the new directives from the A-10 to spend outside of basketball, but they're positioned better for this because of Woj and their alumni culture.

The best decision would be for the MAAC to make a conference-wide agreement. The second-best decision is to wait a year and see what happens.

Let’s see what this coaching staff does. I would love to see 1 or 2 more wins but that looks doubtful. They will be busy, lots to fix. My biggest issue with this team was the lack of depth. Go Griffs!
