Well, we had to get new ones into Allentown, Scranton, and now Trenton, first. Bishops appear to be the only job position that's hiring lately. It's a real slowwww offseason.

OT--but its still the offseason, so whatever...

Good thing Father O'Connell didn't get sent to Scranton--you'd have a real problem on your hands when he showed up rooting for CUA in your gym.

Congratulations to Father O'Connell--he leaves behind an incredible legacy at Catholic University.  We were "freshman" together--my freshman year was his first year.  Of course, his tenure was 3 times longer than mine.  He rebuilt the University from top to bottom with zeal and enthusiasm--from our mission, our academics, our Catholic identity, our physical campus--you name it.  Virtually everything is better now than when he took over in 1998. 

I'm sure he'll be an outstanding Bishop--and who knows--maybe someday he'll be back at CUA as Chancellor!  (Per tradition, the Archbishop of Washington is the Chancellor of Catholic University.)

 On during halftime of Lakers-Celtics tonite was former Royals' All-American Jason Hoppy on new Bravo series Bethenny Gets Married? At least, it looks like Jason, although it's been over 15 years since I've seen him play, but how many Jason Hoppys can there be? He's the boy friend/fiance of Bethenny Frankel-one of The Real Housewives of NYC.
  It's a real slowwww offseason.

Ronk,

I have it on good authority from my sources that you are a regular watcher of the Real Housewives, so please spare us the NBA Finals excuse!

That is indeed the former Royal star...

[TheGrove]

Seriously? Not bad.

Really? I'd heard he was in the mix for the Citadel job (which went to former D3er Chuck Driesell) too, but I'd figured that was because it was a chance to move up divisions. Was he really itching to get out of MMA?

  No reason given in story on front page of d3hoops; I mentioned it for any Landmarkers who skip the front page on their way to our topic.

Big loss for MMA. Landmark coach of the year who seemed be leading a team that was beging to gel, coming off a tourny appearance.  Should be interesting to see who they bring in over the summer.
