Fire Autry

All this hoo-ha!

I already know Red is gone. So does everyone else that might care and that includes Wildhack, any current coach that might interested in the job and their agent. There is nothing preventing people from talking or the conversations that have already occurred.

All in good time. It is almost February and it’s a short month. My only question is to decide if I go to any more games or stay home and watch Thin Man movies.

was hoping we could get to 100 pages by Feb 1.

Back in college I had a poster that said “Tired of the same old ?”
Well had to use the *, but you know what I meant. That’s how I feel about the season, the whole Red situation and frankly, most of the posts

Its so sad if I were Red I'd fire myself.

Agreed.

This next hire will reveal what the AD and University want our men's basketball program to be: a decently compensated but middling P4 program, or a team that can again contend for perennial top 25 status.

If they go cheap or inexperienced, it's the former.

And not that any hire is a sure thing, but I have limited trust in their capability / ability to get this hire right, after how badly they collectively botched the last hiring process.

Also bears mentioning that we're going to have a LOT of competition this offseason, as a lot of coaches are going to be let go from P4 programs. So getting a jump on the competition is going to be key.

RF, a couple of questions. First, re: this comment below: I always thought you were one of the many posters on here who insisted that Wildhack basically had to hire one of JB’s guys, Red or Gmac, in order to get him to finally retire? Or do you not believe that? I remember you beating the drum that we should go outside the program but I thought you figured this interim step was inevitable to get JB to go.
“I have limited trust in their capability / ability to get this hire right, after how badly they collectively botched the last hiring process.”

Second, what competition? Unless UNC parts ways with Hubert Davis, we could very well be the top school looking for a new head coach this offseason. There was a lot of change last offseason.
“Also bears mentioning that we're going to have a LOT of competition this offseason, as a lot of coaches are going to be let go from P4 programs. So getting a jump on the competition is going to be key.”
(Not that we shouldn’t try to get a jump on the competition.)
