MBob now needs to go get Marshall or Jay Wright or this board will go into meltdown mode.

I think you over-estimate the number and passion of GT basketball fans. Far too many have been burned out by the reckless running of the program over the last 10 (or so) years, and many (like myself) watch with mild interest but no where enough passion to worry much about the whole thing. You lost me back at automatic rollover.....MBob may or may not realize this. Not sure if Peterson cares that much either.

Something changed since Saturday bc on Saturday morning every damn GT source I know was saying the same thing that Drew was a done deal and even assembling a staff. Wtf!!!!!!

Well, iirc, Valpo PR and Valpo's radio voice both came out on Saturday denying Drew to GT. It seemed like we acted on a misunderstanding to cut-loose on Capel.

You don't fire Gregory with 2 years left to pay and then get turned down by every major candidate. This looks very bad. Hopefully MBob can save this and make a great hire. Doubtful

This is me, being completely not shocked by what has transpired.

I now expect Mike Jarvis Eddie Jordan or Paul Westhead to be named our coach tomorrow.

This is GT basketball.

It's never as easy as pick a guy, pay the guy, guy comes, win games.

As the great Al Swearengen said:

"Pain or damage don’t end the world, or despair, or f****** beatings. The world ends when you’re dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man — and give some back."

I look forward to a completely unfulfilling and not exciting hire.
