Fire Autry

[Sherman20]

Why are you assuming we’re going to hire an NBA coach?

I’m not assuming that. I just worry about Wildhack getting seduced by some outside the box hire that he thinks will win the press conference and someone that Melo endorses, aka an NBA retread. When to me, the path to a successful coaching hire is clear as day.

That’s a mistake. The majority of the hot mid-major coaches have actually worked out in recent seasons. Just take a look at the current top 25. Ben McCollum at Iowa, Darian Devries at Indiana, Kelsey at Louisville, Dusty Mays at Michigan, Todd Golden at Florida (won a national title), Nate Oats at Alabama, TJ Otzelbeger at Iowa State, Mark Byington at Vandy (he wasn’t even really a hot name), Grant McCasland at Texas Tech, Ryan Odom at Virginia, Will Wade (originally VCU to LSU), Hurley at UConn, Mark Pope at Kentucky. Scott Drew went from Valparaiso to Baylor back in the day.

And to reiterate the earlier point, there have been so many high profile coaching changes over the last two seasons, and with Hubert seemingly off the hot seat, I don't see a single potential vacancy that should be considered more attractive across all the land. Hopefully this stays the case, and hopefully JW gets it right, because I think we can be in a very strong hiring position come season's end.

It won’t be an NBA guy.

Once Brad Stevens helps the Cs get the second championship under his reign, I’m sure he’s the right guy to be our next coach.

This has the same chance of occurring as Vermont lowering property taxes.

lets just go on a run the rest of the season and keep autry. keep in mind they were calling for Coach K's head after year 3 too. with a way worse record than autry.

i totally understand the last few years hasnt been up to par. but we arent even close to eliminated from ncaa's and we have a talented team who is now healthy.

and its just healthier to root for your team rather than "fire autry" when it has a ZERO percent chance of happening until March at the earliest.

Assuming SLU keeps this up and goes into the tournament, Schertz will be one of the hottest coaches on the market this offseason.

I would hope John is grooming him behind the scenes.

No politics here please.

Nothing like some old school shirts vs skins on the basketball court

Him and his wife are very very happy in Wellesley.

No one is happy in Wellesley.

Bump

 

[CLTCuse]

There is no more debate, Red has to go. Now.

It’s back 11 days later

 

[OrlandoCuse]

He won’t be able to come back from this loss. We’ve all seen enough of his inability to coach. I hope the school does the right thing and moves towards his termination. We need to send a message that these losses are unacceptable and have consequences. Penn State had no trouble firing Franklin after a bad loss. We should do the same.

We need to start our coaching search asap. Red’s era is OVER.

The bad penny returns

 

[Briancuse]

Fire his ass today

 

[JKinUtah]

na na, hey hey...goodbye Red

 

[TommyA13]

Welcome back to the thread everyone!

 

[Cuse_NYC]

Really should let Devo or someone take over now for the time being. This isn’t fair to anyone.

 

[RF2044]

Final nail in the coffin, I'd say

 

[HRE Otto IV]

BC is awful and didn’t play well until OT.

 

[Blanko97]

Worst coach in the country, bar none. Should be fired before he gets on the bus

Kenny Payne levels of a$$

 

[Orangezoo]

Yep. Going to be a long quiet finish to the year in the dome. We now shift back over the finding hope via the football off season.

There is no way we find the wins to turn this around this year. This game was there to coach and take home a win and he blew it. Obviously the players failed too but he did not put his team in the position to win and his decisions added unnecessary difficulty.
