I did not say anything about why Macciocca was fired or imply that he was fired because of Grandizio's dirty work. I just don't like Grandizio and quite frankly think he's dillusional if he believes an interview is in his near future. For how much Macciocca bashing goes on here, I thought I would put my two cents in about who shouldn't be the next coach at Cabrini. What's done is done with Coach M, but for anyone to post on this board that Grandizio should be given a shot is down right ludacrous. (to me)

Game:

It says St. Josephs, Pa, no grad date on the website. Can't get the BA  or '80 without finishing :-)

If you really want Cabrini to get better then you would want someone with previous college coaching experience and preferably head college coaching experience.

If the admin would support the program with real full time $$ then Cabrini should be able to get and deserves someone better than Grandizio.

And no I do not like him or his alter ego of Allstarscout.

Gamefan:
"A current player's family sitting in the crowd at a game I attended said he has been a head coach for many years at different levels with the last 2 years at Cabrini.  Others looked too young and inexperienced! Really do not know him though."

Game: I am pretty sure that the person on staff you are talking about at Cabrini is Coach Grandizio. First of all, he does not have head coaching experience nor is he even qualified to get the job because it states pretty clearly that the person needs a minimum bachelor's degree.

Unfortunately, that family had a whole lot of smoke blown up their a**.

I would be very surprised if any of the former coaches were asked to stay on, with the possible exception of Cabrini Alums. Disagreement with the head coach's decisions or not, the coaching profession is a lot about loyalty (Kelly's to Dzik, prime example) so why would any new coach ever want to hire someone who is a known back-stabber?

Its a shame Macciocca never seemed to have a chance from the beginning.

What names are in the mix?

Word is, AD is a finalist at another college.

All quiet on the PAC board front when Eastern is downed by 19 and Cabrini wins.

Good luck to all the teams duking it out for playoff advantages!

I wasn't at the Cabrini / Eastern game, but it looks like the Cav's TO's is what killed them.

I also did a little bit of research on the Eagles shooting %age against PAC teams and Cabrini actually held Eastern to their combined lowest for the season.

EU v GMC EU shoots
FG 43% and 3pt 20%

EU v Arc  EU shoots
FG 52% and 3pt 56%

EU v Nuem EU shoots
FG 57% and 3pt 40%

EU vs Wes EU shoots
FG 56% and 47%

EU v Cavs EU shoots
FG 37% and 3pt 25%

Cavs also out rebounded Eagles, but had twice the turnovers (26)
So I am thinking that the Cav's defense was not the issue.

Actually, if I had even looked just a little bit harder, the terms of service is posted at the top of the page.

Chiz, I found this by typing in "terms of service" into the search button at the top of the page.Hope that helps. Sorry the stuff isn't in quotes, I am still trying to figure out how to put the text in quotes. This came from the admin board.

"Nordstrom's! ! !   I hope you are kidding me..:"

Wolfpac - A man's job is different from his profession. What he does to provide for his family doesn't measure how much class he has.

You disgust me.

Why would you be kicked off of the chat? For saying a team sucks? Big deal.

The irony of the situation is that you spouted off about how embarrasing Cabrini basketball is, in a most embarassing manner. You embarrased yourself, with your improper use of the english language on multiple occasions, and your inability to communicate who you are upset with, and who you feel sorry for. "I feel sorry for the institution" ?? Wasn't it the institution that let Dzik go?

I am out of the PAC chat room. I am not fired up or upset, I just think that it is sad that WolfPAC and Heatlee can't add anything to the conversation but their frustration about the situation that happened with Cabrini and Dzik.

As a  last question, I ask the room again, "Are there any players that could be recognized on a national level?" Does the PAC have anyone fun to watch no matter what team you are fighting for?  Only one was mentioned.

Ryan Oxley played well last night, but was unable to get a lot of open looks.

The Cabrini DeSales game was competitive, but DeSales played more disciplined basketball at the end of the game. And they did defend Randy Reid well in the second half.

Cabrini is a good team,  they are just young, and while they can go up on a team by 31 or 15, they are still learning what it takes to maintain it. Young guys need time to learn how to make smart decisions.

January should be interesting with no immediate "team to beat". Can't wait to see who pulls it together.

Heatlee and WolfPAC,

"That would have NEVER happen when John Dzik was the coach."


"Without Dzik and his staff the Cavs are history."


This is just a suggestion. You obviously care about Cabrini Basketball because you are still taking the time to post on this site. Why not try to get over the fact that Dzik isn't coming back and recognize something positive about a program you care about? If you don't care, then let it go.

On a seperate note.

Are there any All American caliber players in the PAC? I know some people are saying the league is getting better, just curious if it has players that could be recognized on a national level?
