Why do you think Jackson is gone?

The only way Egor stays is if Pera is named HC I believe.

Per Mark Berman, half of that equation will happen. Let's hope Egor wants to do some graduate work.

I hear he already asked for his release, and other schools have contacted him. Heard Egor was gone too.

Jackson has gone through two coaches already. I wouldn't blame him for not wanting to deal with a third one. He and Egor basicAlly play the same way. If egor stays I could see Marcus wanting a fresh start for one last year

Quote:Mark Berman‏ @MarkBermanFox26
According to college basketball sources @VCU_Hoops coach Mike Rhoades has hired JD Byers & Joey Rodriguez from @RiceBasketball staff.
Makes sense that Joey would go back to VCU.

Man that's a young, inexperienced staff for Rhoades. Byers is maybe 34 or 35 (but looks younger). Rodriguez is 27 or so? Brent is certainly the most experienced member there I guess but he's never been a #1 assistant or head recruiter before.

Doesn't Rhoades play the "head recruiter" role, as he did at Rice?

He deals with a third one if he transfers
