Langel to ND or other school. Gmac goes to Colgate, then beats Cuse the next 5 years and makes a few NCAAT runs before getting the HC position at Georgetown.

Nightmare.

For the record from the original post because I saw a couple comments on it. I’m not saying Hima starts. I think we get a center in the portal and Autry knows that’s a big need and we’ll get a very solid center. I also expect the open coaching vacancy to be filled within the next couple weeks. I think Autry already has a short list of who he wants and who he knows he can get. I expect Gmac to stay around for another year or 2 and then he’ll probably take a low d1 HC job.

I think Mintz does stay. I fully expect him to test the waters but I think he ends up coming back and Autry convinces him. I think Benny stays. I also expect Autry to use the bench a lot more than Boeheim so we’ll see a lot more players get some PT and they’ll let the recruits know that

Some 5 star's dad.

I know it’s tongue in cheek but I think you have to hire the coach like 2 years before? Something like that

Jason Hart would be an ideal addition this staff. I think he’d recruit at a realllly high level. But hes got a good job as is, not sure how appealing even being the associate head coach under Red would be.

Will Murph come back to shut it down?

2-3 guy. No thanks. Also Weaver has a black cloud now, and he’s an NBA guy.
Rautins could open up Canada.

 

[PhatOrange]

Why would Bell transfer? Any specifics?

 

[OrangeDW]

ah man, I'm not really "up" on the assistant game in the ncaab but Griff and Red have NYC just fine and Red CERTAINLY has the DMV arena locked...I think we need a philly guy, someone who can go get those gritty philly players

Hakim Warrick? Bring him in!

 

[Capt. Tuttle]

Tried to weasel my way into the pay board with the inside scoop on Jim’s retirement back in January, but they told me they’ve known all about it since 2018. Was told to “kick rocks”

Syracuse John told us years ago.

Could Benny getting back into the fold at the end of the season be related to Autry taking over?

Perhaps Benny was leaving if JB was back, but then was suddenly back in the fold with Autry taking over so JB played him and started him again?

Just guessing. It was weird how he was written off as leaving and was barely playing - then all of a sudden he’s starting again.

With Red as the coach, why would Benny leave now?

Benny actually left the program when he missed the Virginia game. Red went and talked him into coming back. It was not a personal day.

Bell also right? Didn't he go 2-4 games with DNDCP ? Then Taylor was playing alot and got no minutes. Speculation but could be something there.

I’m hoping because we bring better players in….if he indeed does transfer.

If he sticks, he’s either gotta really add to his game. Or he’s gotta become like a 40+% absolute dead eye shooter from 3. Like, Andrew White level shooter, to make up for the stuff he doesn’t do.

I think Bell will get better at the stuff he doesn't do, and also will be a 40% shooter from deep.

It’s very possible. It’s been said before, but Southerland didn’t even see the court until his 3rd year and wasn’t a starter until his 5th year.

Nichols was a way better defender from day 1, but as a shooter - he did nothing until his Junior year.

Shumpert shot 29% from 3 as a freshman before becoming a stud 6th man on a really good team as a soph.

In normal times Bell wouldn’t have even seen the court as a freshman, so we wouldn’t have seen his flaws the way we did. Hopefully he’s a hard worker.

 

[hoopsupstate]

Hire Carlos Boozer. His two sons (twins) might be the two best recruits in the nation and they’re only sophomores. Wishful thinking!

The last two games he looked fine on defense and rebounding.

As far as keeping current players, I’d have to imagine that this path has the highest potential to retain the most players.

 

[Sbucketball]

Bell will be good.

 

[Niastri]

I'd add, he's a quality backup at 4-8 mins a game tops

Lots of players get better with experience and coaching. Hima is huge, with very long arms, and had shown flashes of plus athleticism for a guy that big. He might surprise you, given an opportunity.

That said, we don't want Hima, Carey and Patterson as our only bigs... That's a recipe for Brown playing minutes at center and going full Marek on us.

The application process is a pain, and they always say no.

No need for you to know. If you don’t believe me, don‘t worry about it.
