UNCG coach fired ... does this affect Dionte Neal??

[TGT2]

from Greensboro N&R:
Mike Jones out as UNC Greensboro men's basketball coach
Jones had four winning seasons and three successive 20-win season in his five years in Greensboro, and five 20-win seasons at Radford.

I think it does. They shoulda given him one more year

Wes did great things before he left for Cinci with multiple NCAA and NITs the last 4-5 years he was in the G. Jones kept them a winning team until this year, but couldnt get postseason births. Im guessing admin saw that as not meeting the standard set.

As far as Neal, I have no clue if he stays committed or not. Ive see someone mention would he be open to decommit and go somewhere that offered both sports, and he could but it wouldnt be to play football as football was never an option he was going to pick

.....and he decommits.

The interesting thing was he mentioned football

Will be interesting to see what happens. Football teams for the most part have their rosters set, so not sure being so late in the game how that could work. Basketball is wide open. Ill make an uneducated guess and say App State, but would love to see a bigger school smartly swoop in.

I’ll throw in high point as well. I could see unc Charlotte coming in as well. They got jariel and are on Kadence Pruitt now. Could see them making a pitch for both.

Fortunately for Dione the portal mess will work in his favor. Every position is pretty much wide open now except for the football QBs who have already signed for the big $$$$. Likewise for the big name basketball portal guys.

I know several big time football programs wanted him to sign for football and walk on basketball but there was apparently not a lot of interest there. We'll see if that remains the same.

Hopefully he will keep focused on Friday night.

High Point would be a great fit. I wonder how many messages he has already received from schools.

Maybe Nido will get him some of that Congdon money. There’s plenty to spread around over there.
