Seems like he’s identified talent well.
Plus having an experienced coach helps with evaluating portal talent too. Straughn is a great game prep guy in addition to recruiting.Interesting hire. I wonder if this guy is sick of having players raided by larger schools.
I know that Red’s stated goal is to recruit the DMV like we’ve never done before. This would do that plus.
Hah right. I remember being “what?” And now I’d cut off my arm for FB before he’s coached a game.I didn't know who this coach was prio to today. I also didn't know who Fran Brown was.

No angst...this board has been all over the place lately. We get Eddie and people act like we should've landed Shaq. We (might) get Leffew and people are upset we didn't get Kyrie. I think the staff is doing decent with what's available out there and it just seems like this board has been such downers about everything. (I kinda understand considering Yukon just went back to back ) maybe I need to up my expectations lol.
“We get Symir and people act like we should have gotten a valid PG”
Sometimes if there are people concerned about something it’s because it’s valid. I know it’s crazy
Fwiw, personally I’m not down on the hire. I know little about him. I just don’t agree on suggesting negativity is for negativities sake after the recent history we’ve seen
Didn't the guy with the bow tie do every well.?
I want an offensive innovator who can scheme and teach innovative sets and create lots of movement and off ball screening actions. That’s what we need. That’s how UConn turned into the Machine. The modeled their offensive concepts after European teams. I think Red and Griff can coach up the defense. I guess maybe Straughn can start making moves with the offense this off season.
which is HUGE in the portal eraSeems like he’s identified talent well.
BingoMaybe the "Haves" are schools that can hire Head Coaches down to Assistant level.
He was also a scout for the Wizards.Plus having an experienced coach helps with evaluating portal talent too. Straughn is a great game prep guy in addition to recruiting.
Weren't there rumors or at least speculation that Griff might be leaving also?I think you’re right. If I were Griff I would not be too pleased.

Oh.I was making a joke about the state of the athletic program
Well, that is what Brenden was for. We should already have the DMV. I have to say, I am surprised.
