Porter Moser

[quote="mkras99" post=341809]Not advocating for Moser and would hope we'd do better, but guy took a shitty Loyola-Chicago team (1-17 in his first season in the Horizon league) from last in the Horizon (and 10th in the MVC) to 1st in MVC in six/seven years (oh, and to a final four).[/quote]

That's fair......I guess this is another way to look at it.

Interviewing Moser is either thinking outside the box, amassing perspective, OR we've been turned down by more coaches than we can imagine
 
This coaching search makes me feel like I am ordering at an restaurant in a foreign country where I can’t read the menu and can’t communicate with the server so I just pick an entree and hope.
 
The guy went to the Final Four and nobody poached him. That should tell you all you need to know. Not a fan of this potential hire at all.

He won't get that many years here
 
A hire like this is embarrassing and looks like a hire meant to show that the person doing the hiring is smarter than everyone else. Cluess is a no-risk successful coach who'
s succeed everywhere. Works hard. Wants to ………

If you have to go this outside the box, something is DEFINATELY wrong.
 
Is this Cragg's technique to get us all on board for Cluess ? I think it is worth talking to many guys but I have still not heard a name that makes me think they are a better option than Pitino.
 
[quote="BasketballJones" post=341826]Moser spent st least 6 years as a top assistant to Rick Majerus. Works for me.[/quote]

Just curious do you post under the same name on Jungle?
 
Maybe this is just a ploy to get those last Cluess hold outs on board with Cluess.
That's how I'm thinking about it now at least.
 
[quote="MJDinkins" post=341802][quote="JohnnyFan" post=341790]Again, when you take out that one admittedly special year, Moser appears to have had just mediocre results. In eight seasons at Loyaola, he finished better than 5th place in his conference just twice [/quote]

I actually noticed his record last week when I checked it out. He may very well work out, but I don't want him. Heck, I'd rather have Cluess than him, and most know I don't want Cluess.[/quote]

I'm with you 100% on that.

I have never posted on Jungle and rarely read it. Who stole my handle?

There is someone with the same name. Not a fan of SJU either. I think a fan of Iona or something. But he posts there and was wondering because you didn't seem like same person based on your posts here.
 
[quote="oldschool Redmen" post=341830][quote="Adam" post=341829]This would be a very underwhelming hire.

Still hoping for Cluess.[/quote]

Does moser's play some def?[/quote]

No idea, but 1 (excellent) year is not enough to give someone a 6 year contract.

6 Tournament appearances in 9 years >>>>>>> 1 Tournament appearance in 15 years

Porter's one year is a massive outlier while Cluess making the Tournament is the norm.
