Chalk up an unexpected one.  Doug Gottlieb to Green Bay.  Hide your credit cards.

Lmao why would they do this 

[steubenhoosier]

Just listened to an interview with Gottlieb. Not the ****** that many make him out to be.

As far as coaching experience....he was a consultant to the Oklahoma State program this past year. Got to sit in on player meetings, planning meetings, and got to learn how to run a program. Also has coached multiple AAU teams--not necessarily a glowing resume, but has some experience.

He understands his shortcomings. Because he is coaching at a lower level, he negotiated the time to be able to continue his nationally syndicated radio show every day. Due to this, he asked for much less money from UWGB so he could go out and hire and pay staff not normally seen in this level of a program. He is going to surround himself with people who can help him learn what he doesn't know.

Don't get me wrong, I am not a Gottlieb fan. Not to the level of Dakich dislike, but closer to that than anything else. However, he did come across as being humble and willing to learn as he goes. Willing to spread the wealth to bring in qualified help. In a day of greed and me first, it's refreshing to hear this from a guy.

Maybe, like all of us, he has matured and grown from the guy who stole credit cards 20+ years ago.

He also head coached Team USA to a gold medal in the 2017 Maccabi games (18+ division). That team was largely made up of small conference D1 players.

If I'm a UW-Green Bay fan, I give a hearty thumbs down on Gottleib continuing the radio show. 

If you're not 100% in on coaching, I have 0% interest.

Texas Tech, Lamar, then Marian.  Soon will be coaching your local YMCA league.

I hope he has success here. Would be cool to see him do well even if at a low level.

You seem to be enamored with coaches who are in desperate need of surrounding themselves with guys that are more knowledgeable in coaching at the college level.  Not saying that guys shouldn’t get as qualified assistants that they can but when it is a necessity, it’s not a good hire.

Rothstein - Ohio State's Jake Diebler has hired Northwestern's Talor Battle as an assistant coach.

If Hurley leaves I would have to think that UCONN would have to hire one of the assistants as a interim coach. It is pretty late in the process to go out and make a national search.

Luke Murray is a star. He would be the best choice here

The fact that Hurley hasn't killed the story or put out a statement makes it seem like he's all but gone.

Tough to turn down an opportunity like that, but man I hate that CBB is about lose arguably its best coach. What a kick to the crotch.

My view is that IU’s road to winning a ship would get easier.

If Danny Hurley does go to LA and takes the important pieces of his staff with him -- in other words, there's not a capable person left behind to run things in Storrs -- I could see UConn going after Sean Miller. 

I have not seen any Twitter or social media reports about this. 

Just a hunch ...

I could see UConn throwing a bag at Sampson or trying to pull a Jay Wright outta retirement. If the Celtics win the Finals... Brad Stevens?

As said in this thread, I would think it is overwhelmingly likely it will be Luke Murray as the successor.
