Next Coach?

Get in line. Keep Lavin. Get rid of AD

WTF Should we keep Lavin? WTF HAS HE DONE HERE WITH HIS OWN KIDS?
Not the kids fault but the guy is an idiot. Gonna say he's not an idiot? Well just look at his quotes.

I'm at the point where I'm done with him, get a new coach and if the recruits decomitt then so be it.

I will willing to give him an extension even if no ncaa appearance, if he got a top recruiting class.
After reading his quotes after last loss, nahhhhhh I'm done with him.

You're under no pressure to win huh? well FU then

I'm in a real foul mood. Sunday blowing that 10pnt lead with 8 to go. Then last night on top of it.
Thinking I better stop posting for a while
 
We re all in a real foul mood. We were ranked 15 and things looked great. Two more losses, another injury, and a high probability of no NCAA tourney for DLO and us fans.
 
Clean house and let the recruiting chips fall where they may. This is no way to go through a basketball season year after year.

I'm more upset about the no NCAA tourney for D'Lo than I am for myself as a fan. I've got next year. (and the years after that). D'Lo doesn't.

While cleaning house can they remove Red/White administration as well. Would not mind dealing with professional people.

Dont worry I see us winning the BET and getting the automatic bid.
 
It's enticing to have one of the Hurleys and they'd recruit better locally right away, but I suspect either of them would leave at the first sign of success in the Big East for a bigger school with a bigger budget. Cluess, however, may think that having the St. John's job is the one he'd stay in a long time. We would certainly see better quality coaching.

Would think that Hurley could end up at Duke.

I'm curious who you have a problem with at R/W and why?

Trivia time: what's the highest ranking a team has achieved then failed to make the tournament? (I don't know the answer...)

Top of my head. .2012 Kentucky was either ranked 2 or 3... they didn't make the tourney and lost to Robert Morris in the 1st round of the NIT.

They should have fired Calipari.

The year before Cal arrived at Kentucky the Wildcats went 22-14 under Billy Gillespie and did not make the tourney. His first year at Kentucky they went 35-3 and lost in the elite 8. The following 2 years they made it to the final 4 and won a Championship. Then came the 2012/2013 year. The year after they made it to the championship game and this year they're undefeated. Even with that down year, his career record at Kentucky is 171-37(.822). In conference he's gone 70-20(.778). . I know you're being facetious, but just wanted to point that out before someone on here tries to make a comparison.

Of course it was sarcasm. :) But you are aware that before Joe B. Hall won a championship, fans were calling for him to be fired, despite 2 elite eights, an NCAA Final, and NIT championship in his first five years before they won the championship in 1978.

Did not remember that about Joe B. I suspect the natives would be a tad bit less restless if we had anything remotely resembling that production over the last 4+ years

They can pay any amount of money but my bet is John Calipari.

Think they go inhouse/alumn and think Cal's rep/past is a little to checkered for Duke's pompous liking.

No way. As they used to say about Red Auerbach, when you shake hands with him, you have to count your fingers afterwards.
 
OK, I made it through the first 40 pages of this dribble and was able to compile a list of alternative coaches that were listed. In no particular order, those names are as follows:
Mark Jackson
Bob Hurley
Anyone else with the last name Hurley
Bob McKillop
Mike Hopkins
Ben Howland
Josh Pasner
Tim Cluess
Marshall (Wichita)
Bruce Pearl
Miike Dunlap
Whitesell (SJU)
Archie Miller
Jim Harrick
Jeff Van Gundy
Seth Greenberg
Zach Spiker (Army)
Kyle Smith Columbia
Masiello
Cal (Just for laughs)

I apologize for any misspellings, after reading 40 pages of this drivel, it's a wonder I am not in an asylum somewhere.

Which guy should the search committee call first?
