Yeah or neah? I'm liking what I see so far.

He's been to the Final Four before too.

He has a long mediocre resume, 54% win pct. His last 4 years have been good though. Still only 52 years old. Maybe he has figured things out and progressed is abilities.

He out-coached Musselman last tournament, among others. I think the only other offense that looks as disciplined as Loyola is Villanova. Baylor and Gonzaga are more explosive, but I think talent is a huge part of their success. The question mark is the lack of consistent dominance. However, 5-1 in the tournament with an offensive system that is beautiful should put him 45 spots ahead of Woodson.

People are calling him the next Brad Stevens. I don’t know about that one

Even without a coach, IUBB is still a huge part of the March Madness conversation.

And he could bring Damezi Anderson back to Bloomington with him.   lol

[Hoosierfan222 732]

Watching this game I think I’d be fine with this hire considering he’s also made a final four...

[IU Prof 719]

I'd give this game 20 more minutes before giving him the job.

That 1st half against Illinois was very impressive! Great BB IQ by this team. Tremendous coaching system. Wow, just wow. Amazing defense w/help.

[Defenserocks28 393]

One of the best defenses in the nation.  A fast,  purposeful offense.  We could certainly do worse.   I would be okay with this hire.  He's seemingly figured "it" out in the last four years.   Whatever "it" is

Yeah, Illinois may claw this back because they’re really good and they have playmakers. But that is as good a defensive gameplan as you’ll ever see. I keep running back Illinois’ actions and I can’t figure out how Loyola is keying their coverage changes, and yet they only had 2 breakdowns the entire half. I’m kind of blown away by that. They had 1 day to prep.

[Stuhoo 75,795]

Guess which team has the #1 defense in the nation this year in ppg, and #3 defense in Kenpom?

Yup, Porter Moser’s Loyola Ramblers

[Stuhoo 75,795]

Anthony Leal would be a complete stud playing for Porter Moser.

[Golfman25 4,757]

Loyola is a tough place to recruit.  Kinda the red headed step child of DePaul (which has inexplicably sucked for years).  They have a rich auto dealer alum who built them a stadium years ago.  Moser has done a darn good job under those circumstances.   It’s still a Crean/Miller hire — will it translate?

[kreigh8 2,008]

He can coach, no doubt. But can he recruit? If he brings Damezi with him, would that make him an "IU guy"

[Zachetology 282]

Moser is the most Tom-Allen-esque, if that wins any points around here.
