General Coach Candidate News

Thank you UNC AD for screwing West Virginia out of a bid so IU could potentially steal a young sitting Power 5 coach and possibly have IU getting a jump on the portal.   Let’s go if true

Also want to say I appreciate all of our folks who share what they are hearing. I would love to hear more about what you guys heard if you ever feel like sharing it, but it made for a fun ride nonetheless! Cheers to portal season!

 

Anyone who has anything negative to say to our plugged in posters, please keep it to yourself and scream into a pillow if you’re disappointed so the rest of us don’t have to hear it.

We just got us a real live professional college basketball coach that is young enough for 15 years and can (and will) win right away.

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

meh......

Not exciting at all.  Carries very little punch.  Would have rather rolled with Will Wade and really wish we could have swayed McCasland.

not sure he's better than McCollum even but he should be better in the portal.  

Very underwhelming but I guess that's ultimately what I expected.

Devries didn’t have a winning conference record either this year. Fwiw

Did they deal with injuries to a top player?

Anyone reporting this other than Trilly?

Osterman?

Goodman?

Flab Johns?

Let me help: it’s a good hire because he’s a good coach

To all the insiders pumping Brad Stevens rumors for the last 6 weeks:

At least it isn't Brownell

DvD is a disappointing hire given that SD had all of this time and seemingly forced CMW out with someone in mind...  That said, this is massive improvement over our "coach" for the past 4 years.

Everybody at WVU is upset at losing him.  That should tell you something, because it's not always the case.

Osterman kind of said the opposite

Will Wade or beard would have been way better. This hire isn’t going to excite the fan base at all 

Screw the fan base. Half of them don't even know who he is which says a lot about how much their happiness should matter when it comes to making a solid hire.

Can we officially NEVER mention Brad Stevens on this board again?

I 1000000000000% agree. He is never coming.

Not particularly exciting. Not the big hire.

Just win basketball games. A lot of them.

I like him more than McCollum
