Investing in Education Elections
Yesterday's Minnpost blog post describes a "Tsunami" of cash flowing into the school board election in Minneapolis MN (hat tip to Diane Ravitch). It seems that there hare hundreds of thousands being spent on the election for two at-large seats in Minneapolis, and based on some on line research it is unclear to even political insiders why there is so much money flowing into this election… But given the sources of funding flowing into the newly created "Minneapolis Progressive Education Fund (Bloomberg's giving $100,000 and TFA's giving $90,000) and the fact that one of the candidates endorsed by the group has stated his desire to eliminate tenure, it is possible that those investing in the election hope to invest in for-profit charter schools. ele
The fact that the school board candidates have platitudinous campaigns makes it easy for them to sidestep questions like "Why are you allowing outside money to help fund your election?" or, perhaps more pointedly, "What do you think the outside investors will ask you to do on their behalf once you are elected and how comfortable are you with they likely requests?" or, to allow as little wiggle room as possible:"When he was mayor on NYC, Bloomberg replaced "failing public schools" with for-profit schools staffed by inexperienced teachers from TFA. What is your position on that strategy?" In elections where hundreds of thousands of dollars are flowing in, these questions need to be posed to those running for office and the candidates responses need to be shared widely. But as MN blogger Eric Ferguson noted in one of his posts, many voters are completely unaware of local elections…. but that may change this time since the new money flowing in is resulting in negative campaign flyers being sent to homes and negative robocalls being placed to voters. As the school board election in Minneapolis demonstrates, money makes a difference in campaigns— and not in a good way!
The Slippery Slope of Bible Distribution
The Google feed provided a link to a thought provoking article that appeared in the Independent Journal Review (IJR) titled "The Pamphlet Give Out to Kids in Public Schools, An X-Rated Book: Sex and Obscenity in the Bible" is Unacceptable".
Here's the background: The Freedom from Religion Foundation, (FFRF) announced plans to hand out materials at 11 public schools within Orange County, Florida, on January 16, National Religious Freedom Day. The Orange County Board sued to prevent the distribution of the materials, in part because the cover of the pamphlet, depicted below, was deemed by many people to be a smear against Christianity. Andrew Seidel, the FFRF attorney, rebutted this charge by noting that "some of the things that are in the Bible in terms of sex and compare that to the cover [of the pamphlet], the cover is pretty tame compared to anything that is in the Bible".
The article goes on to note that "Seidel contended that despite the fact that the material may offend Christians, it is only fair since atheists feel the same way when Bibles are handed out in public schools."
In many respects members of other religions should be grateful to the FFRF for raising this issue in a "religion vs. atheism" context because I believe that Muslims would feel as unsettled by the distribution of the Bible as Christians might feel unsettled by the distribution of the Koran. I recall from debates held at school board meetings regarding the provision of an opportunity for the distribution of Gideon's Bibles on school grounds that we ultimately denied permission on the "slippery slope" argument. Namely, if we granted permission to one religious group we'd have to allow opportunities for ANY religious group to distribute materials…. which is precisely the argument the FFRF is making…. and what is the result?
On January 3, 2014 OCPS and FFRF came to an agreement and on June 3, 2014 a Motion to Dismiss was handed down which detailed that the "defendant unconditionally agreed to allow Plaintiffs to distribute the materials that Defendant had previously prohibited."
Seidel has concluded that OCPS had backed down due to the illegality that the school could not forbid the distribution of FFRF material while simultaneously allowing the dissemination of the Bible in its schools.
Seidel indicated that the FFRF intends to launch similar actions against other school boards who allow the distribution of Bibles. My continued advice to boards: beware of the slippery slope!
IS Public Education a Deciding Issue?
Education blogger Jeff Bryant asserted in his column yesterday that education policy could be a determining factor in several gubernatorial races in the coming weeks. But, as he notes, in some cases it will result in the election of a "lesser-of-two-evils" candidate as opposed to the election of a candidate who is willing to undo the budget cuts, evisceration of contracts, and emphasis on standardized testing. While polling data indicates that "The top testing turnout message overall emphasizes education, specifically Republicans' efforts to cut programs for students while giving tax cuts to the wealthy", the fact remains that several candidates getting hefty support from teachers unions are NOT advocates of increased funding but rather less strident in they opposition to education than their opponents.
As I've noted in several earlier posts, I hope that public education advocates will NOT be forced to choose between the lesser of two evils in 2016. Those who seek increased public education funding should rally behind whichever Presidential aspirant pledges to end the standardized testing regimen that has been in place for a generation and the privatization movement that NCLB and RTTT has aided and abetted. If the testing is not stopped the drumbeat of "failing public schools" will continue and the public will be increasingly disinclined to fund a failing enterprise.

Microsoft: Stop using Internet Explorer 6 already
Send this to a friend
- Anthony James
Still using Internet Explorer 6? Microsoft wants you to upgrade … now.
In a blog, Microsoft said it is instituting automatic updates for Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7, beginning with users in Australia and Brazil in January. The update will be delivered via Windows Update, but users can opt out and upgrade at their own pace. This approach follows a more subtle campaign using social media.
Using automatic updates isn't anything new (Firefox and Chrome have done it for awhile), but why does the software giant want users to stop using one of its products? For one, IE6 was developed 10 years ago, but at the beginning of 2011, more than 12 percent of users around the world used IE6. Today, that number is down to 8.3 percent, but includes 27.9 percent of all internet users in China.
"Now that we're in 2011, in an era of modern web standards, it's time to say goodbye," Microsoft writes on its own "Death to IE6" countdown site.
More importantly though, are the security issues of using older browsers. Numerous patches have been released for IE6, and several vulnerabilities remain. CNET News has a blog post that goes deep into some of these problems, and predicts that the latest version of Internet Explorer will give Firefox and Chrome a run for their money.
Even though many internet users shifted away from Internet Explorer to Firefox and Chrome a long time ago, 53 percent of the world still uses IE, which was named one of the worst tech products of all time.
Despite this, Microsoft is still supporting IE6 until 2014.

Psych is a one-trick pony that quickly deteriorates into a rather humdrum mystery once the novelty of watching Spencer fake his psychic revelations wears off.
The subtext of loss and longing, which sometimes isn't all that sub, makes The Crazy Ones a tightrope act. But Kelley gets tremendous support from his cast. The madcap Williams has never been better, and Gellar's performance is a magnificently winning mixture of quiet desperation, mounting rage and wistful yearning.

USDA: Nation's wheat flour consumption is leveling off
U.S. per capita all-wheat flour use has fluctuated significantly since the 1930s, but is now showing signs of leveling off.
Per capita use for 2012 is estimated at 134.4 pounds, up 1.9 pounds from the 2011 estimate, but well below the most recent peak of 147 pounds in 1997 and an earlier peak of 163 pounds during World War II.
From the late 1880s until about 1970, U.S. per capita wheat use generally declined, as strenuous physical labor became less common and diets became more diversified.
click image to zoom The rebound during 1970-97 reflected such factors as growth in away-from-home eating and an increased understanding of the health benefits from eating high-fiber, grain-based foods.
Since 1997, lower wheat use appears to be influenced by consumer interest in low-carbohydrate diets.
While U.S. wheat producers benefited from rising U.S. demand between 1970 and the late 1990s, they now face less robust growth in the domestic market.
This chart is adapted from a chart in Wheat Outlook: March 2013.

Several states outlaw pay day advance financing fully, and a few get very few constraints in payday loan lenders. Because of the incredibly short-term mother nature of payday cash advances, the main difference in between small Interest rates and also efficient Interest rates (EAR) could be large, simply because EAR usually takes adding to into consideration. For a $15 charge over a $100 2-week cash advance, this will be 26 ? 15% = 390%; the actual practical use associated with an once-a-year fee (such as a great Interest rates) continues to be discussed simply because APRs are created to make it possible for people to examine the expense of long-term credit rating and may not purposeful in cases where the loan will likely be excellent for only a couple weeks. Also, a great "effective" fee (such as a great EAR - ) may have even more constrained price simply because payday cash advances do not permit awareness adding to; the principal quantity remains the very same, it doesn't matter how prolonged the loan will be excellent. Nevertheless, careful overview with the particular way of measuring bank loan cost offered is necessary to generate purposeful reviews
Payday cash advances bring large risk towards the loan provider; they have a go into default fee of 10-20%, and also in accordance with one review, non-payments cost payday loan lenders close to 1 / 4 of the once-a-year income

Garden Ridge files for bankruptcy, local stores unaffected
Send this to a friend
Garden Ridge Corp. and its subsidiaries have filed to reorganize under Chapter 11 bankruptcy, the company said Monday.
The Houston-based home decor retailer has three stores in the St. Louis area: in Bridgeton and Fenton, Mo., and in O'Fallon, Ill. Overall, it has 44 stores in 13 Midwest and Southeast states
The company initially plans to close four stores -- three in Houston and one in Cincinnati. However, it said it could close "select additional" stores during its reorganization, but added that it is committed to reopening stores in every market where it currently has stores and add new stores.
Over the last nine months, Garden Ridge has been working to improve profitability. Its same-store sales have increased 5.4 percent in December 2003 and 2.6 percent in January, according to the company.
The company has also arranged for up to $70 million in debtor-in-possession financing from Bank of America, pending court approval. Combined with normal cash flow, the DIP financing provides sufficient liquidity to continue normal operations, the company said. It expects to emerge from Chapter 11 in 90 to 120 days.

PALO ALTO, Calif., June 15 /PRNewswire/ -- The security and surveillance system business is increasingly evolving into a service industry. Rising demand for security has resulted in the emergence of new technologies. A dynamic and complex business scenario such as this demands system integrators to be abreast of the changing trends.
New analysis from Frost & Sullivan (http://www.autoid.frost.com/ ), U.S. Security Systems Services Market, reveals that the revenues in this industry totaled $11.91 billion in 2005 and are likely to reach $27.24 billion in 2012.
If you are interested in a virtual brochure, which provides manufacturers, end users and other industry participants an overview of the latest analysis of the United States Security Systems Services Market, then send an email to Tori Foster, Corporate Communications at [email protected] with your full name, company name, title, telephone number, fax number and email. Upon receipt of the above information, an overview will be sent to you by email.
"Successful integration of security systems involve profound understanding of technical aspects as it is customized based on business requirements and existing infrastructure," explain Frost & Sullivan Research Analysts Jason Halverson and Sathya Durga. "The cost of system failure is encouraging end users to consider appropriate operational support and maintenance of security systems and thus, boost demand."
Organizations in both the public and private sector today face an additional challenge of maintaining and providing access to a mobile workforce. The need to improve operational efficiencies by upgrading access control systems to enable employees from differing workplaces to easily access various facilities is of crucial importance.
Low comfort levels of systems integrators with network systems and software is affecting the growth in surveillance and security integration markets. Emerging technologies such as Internet Protocol (IP) surveillance demand in-depth understanding of network systems for installation and integration. The lack of expertise to install and integrate such emerging technologies is one of the major challenges in this market.
"System integrators in the surveillance industry have been playing a significant role in influencing the buying decision process and with the analog to digital transition, their roles have become critical," explain Halverson and Durga. "System integrators' growing unease with emerging technologies needs to be eradicated and vendors should take active steps to educate and train them to be comfortable with network systems."
In addition to systems integrators growing detachment from emerging technologies, vendors face an additional challenge of low awareness levels from end users. In a move to counter these challenges, vendors should actively educate systems integrators through training and should improve awareness of their end users.
U.S. Security Systems Services Market evaluates the government, education, corporate and high technology, commercial and banking, healthcare and residential markets in this space. This study also includes a detailed discussion of industry challenges with strategic recommendations, market drivers, restraints and competitor profiles.

From: Scottsdale, AZ
Region: Southwest
Topic: Non-Natives, Soils, Shrubs
Title: Non-flowering plants in Scottsdale AZ
Answered by: Barbara Medford
QUESTION:I have three plants that are supposed to do well in Arizona but mine are not flowering. The yellow bells and orange jubilee I have get full sun, drip watered 3 x a week for 1 1/2 hrs (at 4am) and are not flowering. The orange jubilees were just planted this spring and flowered well, now they are not at all. The yellow bells have been established for 2 years and no flowers (lots of foliage). My bougainvillea is also not flowering. It is in full sun but not watered at all. It is producing green leaves but no flowers this summer. It is end of June at 115 degrees. Is it too hot?? I stopped watering the bougainvillea because it got rather large with foliage (no flowers).
Okay, let's get organized. You have three plants that are not blooming, so we will look at them one by one and see if there is a common denominator.
1. Yellow bells - in our Native Plant Database this is listed as Tecoma stans (Yellow bells) which is native to Arizona but not to Maricopa County, according to this USDA Plant Profile. It is in the Bignoniaceae or trumpet creeper family, and this is ordinarily able to start blooming fairly early in its life cycle.
"Growing Conditions
Water Use: Low
Light Requirement: Sun , Part Shade
Soil Moisture: Dry
CaCO3 Tolerance: High
Drought Tolerance: High
Cold Tolerant: yes
Heat Tolerant: yes
Soil Description: Well drained, rocky, limestone, sand, and loam soils
Conditions Comments: Yellow bells is drought tolerant and Southwestern varieties are adapted to monsoon rains with dry spells between. They may flower better if such conditions are emulated in planned landscapes, so allow ground to dry out between waterings."
2. Orange Jubilee - Tecoma alata, article from Arizona State University. This is native to Peru, but apparently does okay in North America. Needs full sun.
3. Bougainvillea - Native to Brazil. Article from Aggie Agriculture on Bougainvillea. "If your bougainvillea is not blooming, it probably is not receiving enough sun or fertilizer. These plants thrive in the tropics in areas of low rainfall and intense sun and heat."
So we have two plants in the same genus (Tecoma), one native and one not, so we don't know what effect the soils have on the blooming of the plant. Bougainvillea is also not native to North America.
About the best we can do is refer you to the links we have given on the three plants, and then give you what are more or less our generic rules on plants that are not blooming. First, you will note that all three need full sun, which we consider to be 6 hours or more of sun a day. Second, Tecoma stans (Yellow bells), at least, does not need all that water you seem to be giving it. If it is not getting very good drainage in the soil, so the soil can dry out between waterings, the roots may be drowning. Cut back on the water. Third, a very frequent reason for non-blooming is that they are getting too much fertilizer, especially the high nitrogen fertilizers meant for lawns. Nitrogen encourages a lot of green leaves, which is what you want on lawn but not on flowering bushes. The last thing is the sun and heat, which all three plants seem to thrive on.
Conclusion: There is something about the culture of the plants themselves, food, water, sun or soil that is probably inhibiting the flowering. Try to figure out what you have changed that might be causing it. Since we recommend only native plants, we feel that the fact that none of the plants are native to where you are growing them could mean there is some incompatibility with the soil.

The first of four five-day walkouts was scheduled to start this morning. Coinciding with further delays caused by volcanic ash from Iceland, it would have seen the airline incur costs of up to £138m and disrupted the travel plans of nearly 2 million passengers.
But in a dramatic course of events that is likely to infuriate trade unions, BA was granted the injunction last night after it argued that Unite, the union representing cabin crew staff, had mishandled the announcement of a strike action ballot result in March. Citing a technical point under section 231 of the Trade Union and Labour Relations act, the airline won on the ruling that Unite had allegedly failed to adhere to its statutory duties of providing a detailed breakdown of the ballot results to all its members.
Mr Justice McCombe granted the injunction shortly after 5pm yesterday, arguing that a "balance of convenience" had led to his decision. "I am unable to say it is sufficiently clear that the union took the steps required by law at the time they were required," he said last night. The decision was met with dismay by Unite. It promised to appeal against the decision in a move that could see it return to the Court of Appeal as early as today.
The union's joint leaders Tony Woodley and Derek Simpson branded the judgement "an absolute disgrace", calling it "a landmark attack on free trade unionism and the right to take industrial action".
"Its implication is that it is now all but impossible to take legally-protected strike action against any employer who wishes to seek an injunction on even the most trivial grounds," they said.
It was the second loss in court for Unite in six months. BA won an injunction against a 12-day strike over Christmas after Mrs Justice Cox said the union's ballot should be deemed invalid as it had included workers who had already accepted voluntary redundancy.
Unite's national officer Steve Turner said that "decent citizens" had voted in an open ballot which had then been ruled out by the judiciary, and that an appeal would be launched as quickly as possible.
Disputing the ruling, he argued that the union said it had done everything possible to publicise the result of the ballot correctly, including uploading it on the union website, as well as posting notices on cabin crew locations at London airports and despatching text messages and e-mails to get the strike ballot result across to members.
Yesterday BA, whose chief executive had kept a tone of circumspect for much of the day, appeared jubilant. "We are delighted for our customers that Unite's plans for extreme and unjustified strike action cannot go ahead," a statement from the airline said.
It added: "We hope all sections of Unite, including the leaders of the cabin crew branch Bassa, will take this opportunity to pause and focus on achieving the early and peaceful end to this dispute which the travelling public and all our employees want."
Unite and its main cabin crew branch, Bassa, wanted to push ahead with BA's longest walkout over the airline's decision not to fully reinstate staff travel perks that were withdrawn from the 5,000 crew who joined seven days of walkouts in March. Crew in March were taking action over cuts in cabin crew numbers.
Bob Crow, general secretary of the RMT union, which had an Easter strike prevented by a similar legal argument, said yesterday: "We warned after the [Easter] judgment that it bent the anti-trade union laws even further in favour of the employers and so it has proved. There is no doubt that this new Con-Dem government wants to effectively outlaw strikes in publicly used services before they swing the axe at our hospitals, schools and fire stations, and the courts are the battering ram to make that happen."

Morrissey Fires Back At Jimmy Kimmel After Duck Dynasty Skit
After being mocked on last night's (February 26) episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live! for canceling his scheduled appearance to protest the cast of Duck Dynasty being booked on the same show, singer Morrissey has fired back at the late-night talk show.
"I was disappointed with last night's Jimmy Kimmel Show wherein our smiling host managed to ridicule depression (70% of Americans suffer from depression according to the National Institute of Mental Health)," Morrissey said in a statement.
"He then found time to ridicule healthy eating (the obesity epidemic in the U.S. costs $147 billion per year in medical expenditure), and he also ridiculed the notion that animals should be entitled to the possession of their own lives," the statement continued. "Furthermore, he found time to jokingly promote gun-ownership – hugely amusing for the parents at Sandy Hook, no doubt. He also promoted his special guests Duck Dynasty – who kill beings for fun. None of the above issues are, of course, as important as Jimmy Kimmel himself, who has finally revealed his show to have an overwhelming loss of meaning. Tune in and relive the intellectual fog of the 1950s."
In acknowledgement of Morrissey's cancellation, Kimmel made an on-air statement where he wryly sided with the cast of Duck Dynasty in the dispute ("because they have guns"), adding that the singer "keeps finding ways to depress us." The show also featured a comedic video with the Duck Dynasty cast pretending to hunt for vegetables.

Boston, MA (SportsNetwork.com) - Facing the prospect of a two-game hole in the Eastern Conference semifinals, the Boston Bruins sent everything they could at Carey Price.
One shot knuckled into the ice and skipped past the Montreal Canadiens goalie to tie the game. Barely two minutes later, Price couldn't get all the way over to stop Reilly Smith.
Another NHL playoff game, another blown two-goal lead.
Smith scored the go-ahead marker during a four-goal flurry to end the third period as Boston came back to beat Montreal 5-3 in Game 2 on Saturday, evening the series.
The Bruins rebounded from Thursday's Game 1 loss, when P.K. Subban scored on a Montreal power play 4:17 into the second overtime, and they rallied from a 3-1 deficit in this one with 13 1/2 minutes to play.
"We've been a strong third period team the entire year," said Smith. "We started getting bounces. ... It ended up working out great, but it's tough when you're relying on the third period to come back."
After Thomas Vanek scored his second goal of the game for Montreal -- both on deflections from Subban -- Dougie Hamilton beat Price with a high wrist shot from the point at 10:56 of the third off a pass from Brad Marchand.
Just over three minutes later, Patrice Bergeron picked a loose puck off the wall, and his harmless shot from the right boards looked like it had little chance of going into until it took that funky hop next to defenseman Francis Bouillon and several feet in front of Price, going in over his shoulder.
Smith's winner with 3:32 left came after a cross-ice pass from Torey Krug was tipped by Brendan Gallagher, slowing it down before it reached Smith in the right circle for his near-side wrist shot.
"They poured it on at the end of the game," said Price. "I thought they got pretty lucky. They were playing desperate ... and they found a way to put it in the net."
Milan Lucic added an empty-netter and Daniel Paille scored earlier for the Bruins, who escaped with a win at home before traveling to Montreal for Game 3 on Tuesday.
Tuukka Rask made 25 saves for the Bruins, who also lost Game 1 to Detroit in the first round, then won the next four to advance for the fifth time in six years.
Mike Weaver had a goal for Montreal and Price gave up four on 34 shots. He had 25 saves on 26 shots in the first two periods.
"I thought we put ourselves in a position where we thought we could take the win," said Subban. "But it's very tough to go into an opponent's building and steal two games in the playoffs. It's not an easy thing to do. And unless you play a full 60 (minutes) you're not going to be able to do it. We didn't play a full 60 today."
Montreal killed off a 5-on-3 in the first period but Boston took a 1-0 lead later on Paille's goal from the slot at 13:02 off a pass from Carl Soderberg, who got the puck in the right corner after Andrej Meszaros had fired it off the end boards.
Weaver's shot from the right circle made it through traffic and past Rask 1:09 into the second period to tie the score for the Habs.
Not long after Boston had a goal disallowed -- Milan Lucic batted the puck in with his left glove -- Subban knocked down an attempted clear by Zdeno Chara on a Montreal power play and Vanek tipped Subban's try past Rask to make it 2-1 Canadiens with 1:51 left in the second period.
Vanek was in front for another deflection off Subban's blast from the point 6 1/2 minutes into the third period, sending it high over Rask's shoulder for a 3-1 Montreal lead.
Rask beat Montreal for the first time in Boston (1-6-3) ... Marchand had two
assists ... Chara boasted a game-best plus-5 rating in almost 27 minutes of
ice time ... Boston was 0-for-3 on the power play and Montreal scored twice on
six chances ... The teams are meeting in the playoffs for the 34th time. The
Canadiens are 24-9 in the previous 33 series, but the Bruins have won the last
two (2008, 2011).
There was quite a bit of hitting on the field at Milan Puskar Stadium last weekend, but almost as much action took place in the streets just outside in the hours following West Virginia's upset of visiting Baylor.
Jamie McMurray claimed the pole for the Goody's Headache Relief Shot 500 -- the first race in the Eliminator Round of the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship -- by beating Joey Logano in Friday's qualifying at Martinsville Speedway.
Houston Texans linebacker Jadeveon Clowney is questionable for Sunday's game at Tennessee.
Retiring Chicago White Sox slugger Paul Konerko and Philadelphia Phillies shortstop Jimmy Rollins were honored Friday as co-winners of this year's Roberto Clemente Award, given to the player who combines outstanding play on the field with devoted work in the community.
The New Orleans Pelicans have picked up the fourth-year option on the contract of forward Anthony Davis.

Be reminded about this event
Thursday Evening Hours
Open Thursdays until 9 p.m., sponsored by Constellation Energy.
Today, medieval books are treated as works of art, untouchable treasures to be locked away in cabinets. Yet many were intended for regular use as vital components of everyday life for monks and nuns, and their way of life was, in turn, crucial for the creation and preservation of manuscripts. In the vibrant culture of the monastic community, new and innovative devotional texts and images were created, while secular knowledge, including music, history, science, grammar and classical literature, was also actively enjoyed and preserved. This exhibition, of approximately 20 books, will explore the life of the monastery as told through the variety of books that were created, used, cherished, glossed, worn down and palimpsested by those who lived there over the centuries.

Buffalo head coach Reggie Witherspoon will not return next season
Mar 15, 2013, 3:31 PM EDT
To follow along with the 2013 Coaching Carousel, click here.
After 14 seasons as head coach of the University at Buffalo basketball team, Reggie Witherspoon has been relieved of his duties. UB athletics director Danny White announced the decision in a press release on Friday afternoon.
"After much consideration, we have determined that a change in leadership for our men's basketball program is necessary," White said in the release. "Coach Witherspoon has led this program with character and integrity for the past 14 years and we are grateful for his service to our institution.
"This was a very difficult decision because I understand the impact Coach Witherspoon has made to our University and community. To be sure, our program is in a much stronger position than when Reggie and his staff took over."
In 14 seasons at the MAC school Witherspoon tallied a record of 198-228, with the Bulls finishing this season with an overall record of 14-20 (7-9 MAC East). Buffalo fell to Kent State in the quarterfinals of the MAC tournament Thursday night, and the Bulls' biggest win of the season came on March 2 when they handed Akron its first conference loss of the season (81-67).
With forwards Javon McCrea and Will Regan in the rotation there was some optimism entering the 2012-13 campaign, as Buffalo managed to win 20 games or more in three of the prior four seasons. But the Bulls were unable to build on that momentum, ultimately leading White to decide that the school needs to go in another direction.
Of their top five scorers from this season only one is out of eligibility: guard Tony Watson II (11.3 ppg). With the right hire (meaning that the new head coach would keep the roster intact), this is a group capable of improving the win total in 2013-14.
From a recruiting standpoint Buffalo currently doesn't have any commitments, be it verbal or signed (early signing period), in the 2013 class.
