Current Division 1 jobs openings

[wiseman3]

I wouldn't be surprised if Niagara goes after Gmac, Rautins and Beilien. Both Rautins and Beilien have connections to Niagara and the area.

 

[Frozen]

Fairfield, Troy and Mercer jobs are open as well.

Fairfield, Troy and Mercer jobs are open as well.

I was wondering if my Mercer Bears would make a move on Bob Hoffman. I felt they underachieved big time last year and didn't have a good year this year. Be interesting to see who they get down in Macon.

Coaching hot seat is going to be an interesting one this year. I'd be as skittish as a long-tailed cat in a room full of rocking chairs if I were on a hiring committee. If we hire him, will he show up on an FBI wiretap?

That would help those who have (or are perceived to have) clean reputations.

 

[Frozen]

Young Beilein may be a candidate at Niagara and Fairfield.

A name to watch for Mercer is Luke Murray, son of this guy:

The job openings thus far:
UCLA
Southern Illinois
Tennessee Tech
Kennesaw State
Stetson
Cal Poly

Hoping a MAAC or American East job opens up that could interest a current member of our staff.
As we need a shakeup.

Yeah I don’t think JB would take any of those jobs

Rautins throwing his hat in the ring for a low level head coaching job? That seems really strange to me.

First, he's already 58 seems awfully advanced to be getting into the college coaching game for the first time.
Second, seems like a step down from coaching the Canadian National Team and his jobs in professional basketball and broadcasting, but maybe those jobs weren't as good as they seemed.

You guys openly rooting for GMAC and AUTRY to get jobs, not because it would be good to see our own continue their career trajectory, but because you want to replace them with an unknown commodity is the definition of a hot take.

I’m going to pretend the last 7 minutes of my life reading this thread didn’t happen. Sad that I will never get that time back.

Lol?
What you think it has to be clearly stated either of them getting HC would be good for their careers? That is kind of obvious.
It is also the only way we see any changes within the program.
What do you want people to say fire those guys so we can change assistant coaches?
My god either of them getting HC jobs would obviously be good for their careers and it would allow for new blood within the program.
If you think the status quo is working then you are in the minority.

 

[kcsu]

Id love to see Gmac get a head coaching gig. He gets three years to learn and if he does well puts himself in line to replace JB.

I guess I am in the minority... I like our staff.

JB himself said we have a talent issue on his last radio show.
Plus player development has been poor.
Our staff could use fresh blood and an assistant who can help with the offense.

 

[wiseman3]

Yep

Apparently he was a Niagara basketball camper back in the Niagara Glory days, and his older brother played for NU.

 

[Alsacs]

It will be interesting who Boston College could hire to replace Christian.
He took over a dumpster fire and has made BC below mediocre but they need a new coach.

Report: Kennedy won't return to Texas A&M next season

 

[rhcuse]

Zagoria tweeted that Leo Rautins "might be in the mix" for the Niagara HC job.

That's about as non-committal as it gets. I "might be in the mix" for that job too, Adam.

Leo's son Sam plays at Canisius (freshman)....that would be something, NU and Canisius bitter crosstown rivals. But a transfer and chance to coach his son could be in the cards.

 

[ORRange]

Clemson and Wake should be looking for coaches. Brownell has been on the hot seat before and had 5 returning seniors and was ranked preseason, they shat the bed and lost a must win game today after blowing a huge lead. He gone and the cupboard is really bare.

Look, it's only 7 minutes

 

[HuskyHooper]

I think these are the programs to watch. Some like UCLA and A&M will clearly be looking. Some are up in the air depending if their team makes the dance like Pitino and Minnesota. Here is what I got:

Arizona
UCLA
USC
Clemson
Wake
Nebraska
Texas A&M
BC
Washington State
Minnesota
Cal

You have to think the same thing about your current coach, don't you?

 

[OrangePA]

Why don’t Griff, Red, and GMAC all go get different jobs! Let’s blow up the whole assistant group, for real though

Not a good idea.

Stability is very important in recruiting

 

[Frozen]

Wazzu fires Ernie Kent.

Geographically Niagara is probably the most appealing job to Leo he'd likely commute from his current house most days. Would probably pair well with his Canadian National Team gig. K didn't quit Duke to coach USA.

Niagara should hire him given how close they are to Canada and that recruiting angle. MAAC isn't an awful league in general but its down right now its been better in the past and it hasn't been raided looks to me like an easy enough place to win.

LOL Brownell and Billy Kennedy on the hot seat at schools that only care about hoops. Not a chance they might get extensions. Pitino Jr is safe and I think Christian is fine at BC.

Manning might get canned. I don't think Wake can poach from a major program at this stage CP3 was a long time ago.

There was talk 2 years ago around UNR about Musselman going to Cal I wonder if they offer him that job and if he can say no hes losing a ton and their 5 star freshman looks like a dud.
