I mean 3 out of the last 4 years making the tourney. I understand but McCollum is not the slam dunk people are making him out to be 

You cannot dominate any level of basketball the way he did for as long as he did did without being basically a tactical savant, and people are overrating the “power 5” experience factor in the NIL age if you put in any effort at all as a staff. 
 

We have the money to buy great players. Heck, Woodson landed guys while playing golf with his buddies and didnt even know their names. 
 

McCollum will have good players. McCollum knows tactical side as well as anyone. McCollum would win big at IU.

My criticism of Dolson is a sum of all the basketball decisions he’s made during his tenure as AD. He’ll get some benefit of the doubt when he proves himself capable. 

You’re adding up pretty much nothing in terms of decisions Scott has been allowed to make for bball.  He wanted to get rid of Woody last year, that was a good call.  Overruled though.

And you’re just going to ignore football?

He definitely nailed the football hire!

IMO, this search has, and will continue to, involve multiple smokescreens/misdirections/obfuscations - effectively, I might add.  We don't know if the BS info was B.S..  No "insider" is going to get the skinny from Dolson himself, so the chain of info could be corrupted anywhere.

In the words of Ruth from Ozark: "I don't know sh*t about f*ck".

Two guys on your list that I would love as well but the reception for one of them has not been warm here so I kept my mouth shut but I think Chris beard is a slam dunk. Dude wins everywhere he goes including ole miss. I don’t even think ole miss fans know they have a basketball team.

the other is pitino. What he’s doing at at Johns is impressive.

Yeah I just check. Drake is 61st in KenPom. I was expecting better after that endorsement from truthhurts.

Sunday is the day for McCollum people.   Drake/Bradley play and it will be game of the day.  2 of the best teams in the Valley

They lost their six best players. It’s essentially an entirely different team. And he’s 61st in efficiency. At drake. A program with four tournament appearances in the last like 30 years. 

Drake is a really good basketball program in the Valley.  Probably the top job in the conference 
 

DeVries had 6 straight 20+ win seasons before he left for West Virginia and 3 ncaa tourney appearances.

If Pitino was 10 years younger he’d be a no brainer.  But not now would be ridiculous.

I trust Scott and hope he has the full reigns but none of this makes sense. 

To pushing Woody out midseason, JerryYeagley confidently saying Scott has his man from the very beginning and sticking to it, to Trilly confirming Scott spoke with AAU coaches yesterday and mentioned a non-college coach as his priority, to today. Doesn't make sense.

Media is now talking with AAU coaches and that call didn’t happen.  Bad info from Trilly.

In general I agree the the picture we have right now is vague.

Sounds like Tom Crean or Billy Donovan maybe the primary candidates, lol

It's Drake for F&*@$ sake! With D2 players for the most part!

Be honest I don't care about reception. I am concerned with winning at a high level. I firmly believe if we were winning and he stays out of trouble we would be good
