Coach Search Options after Autry

[orangepassion]

Hmm do tell? didn’t he hire our future DC that Fran just hired and everyone is raving about?

I assume the HC selected his DC

 

[Franz69]

Blair is the wildcard. He didn't hire the football or basketball coaches at Toledo. So now he gets a big gig and I'd be surprised if he just goes along with Gerry or Hop. He has no attachment to them and if he wants his own guy, now is his chance.

Louisville to be without star freshman Mikel Brown against USF

Louisville star freshman Mikel Brown Jr. is out for the Cardinals' first-round game against South Florida, the school announced Wednesday.

I want to put this out there because some of the stuff I’m seeing is mind-blowing.

The last thing anybody should be doing right now is sending rude messages to the Lallys.

You think things are bad now? You have no idea how much worse it would get if we lose them.

What has he done to help su hoops?

Syracusefan right now

Deez hands rated E for everyone, by hands I mean my hands used to write comments.

 

[IthacaBarrel]

I’ve heard that. Keep an eye on the Florida job.

I heard LSU, where I think he would be a nice fit as well

It continues to amaze me how some people have such strong opinions on things they don't fully understand or have few details about. Opinions and speculation are great, that's what this board is about. However, even our insiders right now don't have the full scoop so anyone sending hate to someone else is beyond stupid. Let things play out!!

That is my hope that Blair wants his own guy and legacy, not very optimistic about it though.

I am done making any predictions. There are so many factions, and those factions have factions. There’s only thing I’m sure of is that this process is like Harding cats.

I’m just gonna sit back and see how it unfolds. I know the Heimer wants to keep it “in the family”, just not sure he has the juice to do it.

This ^, there's a reason Hodgson was the initial #1 target and it wasn't because JB was his biggest fan. At this point sit back and let it play out. Will be plenty of time for people to meltdown when this is over.

Or he knows this is a freebie. If it works out, great, but if it doesn't then the BOT wont blame him.

But I think that's a dangerous game because the AD really needs fans to show up to games. 8000 butts in seats at home games isn't going to do much.

I prefer to spread my meltdowns over several days. Sleep on it, phone a friend, maybe grab a juice... meditate, consult some oracles. It lessens the peak explosiveness. But, you do you.

What’s your marital status?

ASL?

These pretzels are making me thirsty.

Well I got to the end of the thread and didn't find a pot of gold... but it was a fun ride!

 

[sufan59]

If you look at Carparelli twitter content recently, we probably dodged an old guard plant.

 

[Cusefan78]

The Hodgsen fiasco is not the fault of the new ad. Can you give the man a couple weeks for the love of God.

Chill out. I never said it was. I’m just talking about his hires at Toledo

That's not how we do it here.

Panic, then rationalize, THEN consider.

why would the ad hire a coordinator?

 

[PhatOrange]

You have no idea what you are talking about.

Well pick your poison, for how long will his 'millions' matter when the basketball team continues to crater and they're powering up the Dome for 6,000 fans. They'll be down to selling a case of labatts and a few boxes of popcorn. His money won't matter then.

Or let the athletic professionals do their jobs and hire the best coach who, if he wins, will pay for itself 10x over.

This is post number 12,796 (if I hit Post reply before 17 other posts pop up).

My guess is that we're on post number 16,444 at the time the new coach is tweeted by Thamel.

Panic, then rationalize, THEN consider.

And those are just the first three stages.
1 Panic
2 Rationalization
3 Consideration
4 Blame
5 Re-Freak
6 Reconciliation
7 Apathy
8 Redirection

As I said in the Kline thread, if one doesn't read the comments then one will be blissfully ignorant of any hate spewed online.

Why a billionaire would ever read the comments is one of life's great mysteries. It's like they seek out reasons to get aggrieved. Such juveniles.

 

[IthacaMatt]

Still turned a program around and again he has good assistants.

This is his assistants' first jobs as college coaches, and they are in their 2nd year. Arinze and Blackwell didn't recruit him any big men. They don't really have an inside game. If they make 3's they win. Just like a lot of teams.

they also lost their 2 best big men to injury.
