I opposed Scheyer early-on and he’s not my first choice even now, but what if he’s the ‘only’ choice?
But I’m curious, what are you steadfastly against him.
Some seasoned posters here seem to hold a high view of him.
Just curious.
I admit I may be losing perspective here.
I’ve become desperate for som ‘closure’ Here.[/quote]
It's true, I am steadfast against Scheyer coming here. My reason is that, not only does he have no head coaching experience, his entire perspective is through a Duke lens. The structure, status and culture of Duke is nearly the antithesis of St. John's. While he may understand what it takes to be a successful program, he's never lived a rebuild.
But mostly......our next coach has to have head coaching experience[/quote]
Great points. Thanks JF. People have noted those ‘negatives’. Others have focused on the high regard held of him by industry pundits, namely his ‘potential’.
I agree we need an experienced HC, but who?
Some names still out there, not named Slicky Ricky include Odom, Rhoades, Cluess, and backing up a bit, Dawkins, and Amaker.
I’m sure I’m missing a few.
But who is ‘real’, I wonder?
It’s gotten to the point where we need the guy like ‘now’ this late in the recruiting cycle.
As weak as it is, that’s my basis for bringing up Scheyer.
