NCAA MBB Coaching Carousel

If everything you read is true that Muss has worn everybody out at yet another stop, I imagine he can be had. -

We've blown right on by scouting the stat line and moved on to scouting a single element of the stat line. 'Cause that's how the great ones do it. -

Played in the same League as Akai Fleming, though not at the same time, so even if their isn't some sort of at least tacit connection I can't imagine they don't know pretty much all the same people. -
I watch a fair amount of OU and Uzan was a more confident shooter as a freshman. He never got into any kind of comfortable groove this year, to the point where he was turning down looks at times. But he's a good defender, he's a tough kid, and he takes care of the ball. He's got a chance to help somebody.

I’m sure his shooting will improve. That wouldn’t be my problem with him. My problem is his switchability in Woody’s auto switching system. His lateral movement is just not good. He looks to me like a small ball 4 in an open system. If he’s switching from say 4 to 3 he’s probably fine. But if he’s on the perimeter switching 1-3 you’ve got a problem. Teams are gonna hunt him, put in ball screen and get him switched on to their best matchup and he is not gonna hold up. -

Imagine so, though his appeal was always sort of lost on me. -
Bandwagon hopper. Some of us have found them that unlikeable for decades.

If he’s not Satan, he is absolutely the dude who took the bite out of the apple. Michael McDonald looks at that guy with envy.

They are very good. If you aren’t familiar with him, google Richey Edwards, the lead singer/songwriter. Quite the story there.

(2019) C Mackenzie Holmes to IUWBB

You just couldn’t ask for a better representative for the school. She and Grace are the foundation pieces of IUWBB. -

This is so nuts. Columbia Records incomprehensible decision to try to fashion Chicago into a sort of nameless, faceless generic rock band has successfully blurred the fact that they were crazy good. And Terry Kath, Jesus, for those who only know Chicago from about 5-10 songs on AOR radio, that guy was simply 1 of the most talented guys in the history of rock. Dude could do everything.

(2024) - SF Bryson Tucker to INDIANA
Demo replied to Class of '66 Old Fart's topic in Indiana Men's Basketball
From Cassidy: “Good morning from Houston and McDonald’s All-American practice. I’ve been greeted by new Indiana signee Bryson Tucker, who asks “what do I do in the pic? Do we have an Indiana hand sign?” The kid’s trying. -
The kid is a great college player, team leader and stone winner. If any coach can’t win with that dude I really don’t know what to say.

Right now, so do 360 other D-1 schools.

Wonder if this is a little bit of old news and IU reached out before the Tucker commitment. But, fwiw. 6’7” wing who’s shot right at 40% from 3 over the last 2 years on a little over 4 attempts per game. All CAA last year. 1 year left. -
I swear, every time I watch Mark Sears and sit here and mumble to myself about how that is the EXACT player Woody needs to find and then remember that he started out at Ohio U, I’m unsure whether to be annoyed that he’s not in Bloomington or encouraged that he can, in fact, be found.

Aaron Estrada needs to pay me to never watch him. I know he’s a good player and yet the half dozen or so Bama games I’ve watched this year I’ve never seen him good.

Blackmon wouldn’t be part of my preferred roster construction, but a couple of points really need to be addressed here: 1) If you don’t think Jalen Blackmon isn’t a better player than Evan Gordon I would question if you know what you’re watching. 2) If you’re going to insult the kid by calling him dumb and lazy, I think you really need to support that with very specific examples of behavior that you have witnessed to reach that conclusion. Because in my experience with D-1 athletes, some are smarter than others and some work harder than others, but the percentage of those kids who don’t work miles harder at their craft than the population in general is infinitesimal. -
I’m sure this is the new normal that the portal has wrought, but I cannot wait to get the Covid year cycled.

I’m not sure what he’s saying here. Is the fact that Bama staff, which GA’s are, was giving instruction and information to players supposed to be somehow wrong? And the replies are outstanding. Tell us you don’t know what GA’s do without telling us you don’t know what GA’s do.

(C) Kel 'el Ware - COMMITTED TO INDIANA
Demo replied to Chris007's topic in Indiana Men's Basketball
That Izzo quote is gonna be everywhere. And in this case it’s true. The staff did a very good job with Ware and the kid clearly accepted coaching. -

Wow. Not surprised he’s staying but really surprised he’s not going through the pre-draft process. Great news. The kid can get to work now.
