IF Pastner is fired, who would be a good hire to replace him?

You can eviscerate me for not doing one this go around.

That said, miss me with the retreads.

Alford & Sendek & Turgeon & Mike Anderson. Holy ****.

At least he didn't list Noodles Neal.
Okay I might as well back myself up.

Alford has been good everywhere he‘s coached. Nevada is off to a 16-5 start this year. Only place that Alford was fired is UCLA and that’s because they have blue blood standards.

Sendek has won 20 games in a season at every stop of his coaching career. At NC State he consistently had a winner and took the Pack to the sweet 16.

As for Tergeron, he’s only had ONE losing season and it was back when he was coaching Jacksonville U. He’s won 471 games and only reason Maryland fired him is because he was the poor soul who had to fill Gary Williams’ shoes.

They're all retreads who had their chance at the P5 and made their money.

You're off base on that being the reason they fired Turgeon. You don't last a decade in that scenario. He underperformed in the postseason with the best recruits that Under Armour could buy.

I know exactly what Sendek can do. I sat in the stands for that era.

Stop looking at retreads because you looked up some stats.

We're trying to not hire the next Brian Gregory or Josh Pastner again.

I’m young and don’t remember his NCST days… is there something I’m missing because on paper he seems like a decent option?

Beard and Marshall are not options, so stop. Beard strangled his wife? not being considered. Marshall must have done something pretty bad too.

Jonas Hayes has a losing record in his first season as a HC, so not sure why anyone would want him right, Ron Hunter looks better. Can't believe I saw Daryl LaBarrie mentioned.

Maybe Ryan Odom wants to come back to ACC? Throw a bunch of money at Dan Hurley? :unsure:

This would be a huge risk… but recruiting wise it could be a hit. What about Chris Bosh? The name recognition would help get good talent in, and if we can surround him with a quality staff it COULD possibly work!

I don't think Bosh ever got a degree, I think that is a requirement. Id rather have Kenny Anderson if we are going former players. We need a name to recruit because when he is fired, we could have to replace the entire roster.

Bosh looks like he is living his best life right now, he has a pile of money, wrote a book, etc. Why would we think he wants the job? Kenny Anderson is a HC right now at Fisk, I am sure he would love the opportunity, but I have no idea if he is a decent coach.

EDIT if I read this right, Kenny's record at Fisk:
2023:
4-11 (.267)3-4 (.429)
2022:
3-26 (.103)0-8 (.000)

IIRC, KA was to be hired as an assistant but was arrested for DUI and possession of Marijuana before he even had a chance to start working for Tech. Can someone in the know please confirm or refute?

Mark Price has coached for a while too, but idk if he’s been any good.

I vaguely recall him saying something like that was in the works, which was part of why he took that HC job in FL, some prep or HS. Then his accident, arrest, etc. pretty much killed it.

If choking people is a disqualification, then Dan Hurley has to be a no go. If he hasn’t choked anyone yet, which I have a hard time believing, then it is only a matter of time. The guy is clearly a psycho. 🤣

Bosh doesn't have a degree. Jarrett Jack has his GT degree and is a current NBA assistant coach.
