Head Coaching Changes

[fordham96]

Porter Moser is probably as close to Lon Kruger in coaching temperament and acumen as anyone in the game. Oklahoma got a facsímile.

Moser had a really good thing going at Loyola
Sometimes the grass isn't greener on the other side
I wish Moser well and hope it turns out to be a good move for him
Oklahoma is a football school and doesn't have a rich basketball tradition
Basketball is third in importance, behind football and spring football
If I were in his shoes, I'm not sure that I would have done it

Loyola Chicago's Porter Moser has agreed to become Oklahoma's next men's basketball coach, a source tells @ShamsCharania.

Not to sound like Mike Francesa but I'm not liking this move for him.  Go for the big contract god bless but not thinking this will end well.

Obviously the bigger the $$$$$$'s the bigger the risk, but Moser is a fundamentally sound, high IQ coach, Whether he can recruit at the high-major level is the big Q imo. The key will likely be how adept his recruiting AC's are at the H-M level.

Loyola sure did try to keep him. That's a lot of $$$$ for MVC school.

Do you think people told him the same thing about us when he interviewed with us? The only difference is that we don't have football.  But replace football with the city itself, the yankees, mets, etc....

Loyola keeping it in the family.

With Moser leaving Loyola, Sister Jean announced that she is entering the transfer portal

Think she is leaning towards Yeshiva.

Was faculty there (Einstein) for more than 10 years.  Never knew we had a basketball program.

Most of these football schools are still filling up the basketball arenas and providing the resources that a State school with big time donors can provide so I really don’t think it makes a difference.  Heck these schools are even filling up their baseball stadiums and providing them with in some cases, major league type facilities and that is for a non-revenue sport.

Now whether Moser will be a fit at Oklahoma or not we shall see but not because it’s a basketball school.  He will be expected to produce.

The Yeshiva University Maccabees have been a D3 program for many years
They recently tied for the second longest winning streak in D3 history

Was at NYU during Hairston/Kramer era.  D3 only makes me depressed.

Was like in 6th grade and remember watching an NYU vs LIU game on TV which first turned me on to college basketball.

Sounds like he's about to be fired. Names like Tim Miles, John Beilein and Archie Miller are being tossed around as possible replacements. I hope they give Darren Savino, a former St John's assistant coach and the current associate head coach at Cincinnati strong consideration.

Thought Savino followed Cronin to UCLA.

Poster boy for jumping to a big job too soon. He hasn't been the same since.

Great era in NYC College basketball--the doubleheaders at the "old Garden"--getting in for 50 cents with HS "GO" card.  Loved it and they were a dynamic duo!
