That doesn't really dispute what the poster said. Yes, that resume is skimpy. He has 5 years assistant coaching experience in college spread between three stops. There isn't even the "he learned from *insert legend here*" aspect because 3 of those years were Pastner who we just fired. 5...

Pretty sure rhat was for a more minor role, not one of the three primary assistants.

Well reasoned counter point lol. But yes. We do need a new coach. In fact we need about 3 of them.

Is anyone calling Gonzaga a blue blood though?

IMO you have to look at more than just national championships. Under Calhoun they came a lot closer. Especially from 1990 to when Clahoun retired, they were almost a lock for the NCAAT (75-80% ish), finished 1st or 2nd 12 times in conference, and 13 second weekend appearance or later, and 3...

I mean we got old before. The problem is we didn't stay old for a variety of reasons.

We currently have one sophomore for the upcoming year and no freshmen committed. We have a huge junior class (Coleman, Kelly, Moore, Smith, Meka, Mawell) and relatively large senior class (Sturdy, Terry, Howard). Without any backfill waiting, by year 3 it will be looking like we have to...

Do you believe players are only ever brought in to contribute on the court right away? In a healthy program you'd bring in freshman who likely don't see the court much, and then develop behind more experienced players, so they can get ready to step up when others depart. Losing Freds hurts...

Pastner was hired April 8th so it was about the month mark that he finished his staff. CDS was hired March 13th. I doubt we want to wait until mid April to make any assistant hires due to how quickly the portal moves and how much we really need to take advantage of it this year. Longer our...

One thing to keep in mind is that CDS doesn't really have a staff of his own that he can bring with him because he was an assistant in the NBA rather than a head coach at some other place. His last staff at Pacific were primarily west coast guys and don't believe any had P5 experience...

So you basically just win a lot more?

Are the donors new?

I'll believe it when I see it. We haven't been anything but cheap for basketball or football since God knows when.

My guess is he miscalculated if he think that changing coaches will change that.

I can't really see adding Jack as a one of the primary assistants at this point. No college coaching experience at all and only two years in the NBA. I could see bringing him in, in some other role and then promoting him if a spot opens up down the line.

It's a basketball centric view because he was a basketball centric hire and most of his largest impact was from the basketball side of things. The main draw of hiring Bobinski was his experience making basketball decisions from his time at Xavier. As far as most positive light possible, I'm...

Bobinski was hired as AD to make a basketball hire. It was obvious from the start but even more obvious in retrospect. He left almost immediately after hiring Pastner (4 months ish). Considering the circumstances around the hire, Pastner was a successful hire, winning ACC CotY in year one...

Not sure how I would feel about bringing in a guy coming off a show clause penalty.

We need a Qb with the ability to quickly diagnose the situation. Good decision making skills, good arm strength, good accuracy. Basically I want a skilled and physically gifted Qb. We also need an OL that actually does its job so the QB isn't forced to endure repeated hard shots. Blaming the...

There is no indication that Collins had the option of more upfront money on a 5 year contract.
