Coach Search Options after Autry

Bad job, not surprising. I think he’ll wait for a good mid western job

Agreed. He has SLU performing well, doesn't make sense to jump to any old P4 gig.

He'll end up somewhere like Michigan State [just as an example], and be way better off than going to KSU.
 
Yesterday, Schertz and SLU got rolled by George Mason by 29.

Today, Hodgson and USF, play Charlotte at 2 pm and are favored by 16.5.

GMAC won by 5 and the Hopkins led team was scratched in the paddock.
The coach of George Mason, Tony Skinn, I first mentioned in late January. He’s only in his 3rd season and has a 70-29 record (.707). He’s young - 43 and appears to have a great future and will probably be in play for some higher profile jobs soon.

 
Interesting.
He declined the job or an interview? I assume an interview. If so, that's embarrassing.

I would reincarnate Ted Bundy and hire him if it meant winning again
I said earlier that I'd be okay with hiring a slimeball if that meant winning at a high level again. However, I think I'll draw the line on serial killer.
 

Oh my

You know who else is going to appreciate that style of play? Orange Nation. They've been waiting for an excuse to pack the dome like it's the late 80's and early 90's. To get back to 25,000+ screaming lunatics every single game. The Loud House.

USF is averaging 3512 fans a game this season. Hodgson is jonesing at the thought of packing the Dome and chants of "Let's Go Orange!!!".

Carparelli will need to put a line item in the budget for a new roof after the current one goes into orbit.
 
A deal for Schertz would already be done where ever he is going or he is betting on himself. He isnt taking a job to take a job. It will have to be the right job in his mind to leave.
If we really wanted him, I do think we could make a play for him with the right pitch and NIL package. We have some pretty powerful alumni with pull (Melo, Tirico, JB) who I think he’d pick up the phone for and listen to what they had to say. But they’d all have to be rowing in the same direction, and I don’t know if that’s the case here, at least at this point with Saint Louis entering the post-season. So Hodgson seems like the best fit for someone we want and someone who wants to be here.
 
He’s said mean things apparently.

We literally have a mural of JB downtown.

I can forgive an errant comment or two if we can get back to winning
Boeheim:

Two probations
Surly personality
Hired Bernie fine who may have been a bad guy or was just improperly outed

I’d take it back for 20 wins again.

He may already be "signed unofficially" with another program. It is said by many that we reached out, so maybe that deal is with us; if not, then he decided, or we decided, it wasn't a good fit. I think Schertz is the #1 coach on the market, but I don't think he is in play for us.
 
Just found this article with some very interesting info and details
