i have a soft spot for wake forest because they beat ku (larry brown, coach) in the '84 ncaa tournament. that was great.

Awesome!! Congrats to coach Forbes. Could not have happened to a better guy. My guess is he will be successful there.

Can you imagine how satisfying it will be to watch Forbes beat Williams and Coach K?

[Shock Top]

Good to see WSU assistants succeeding this well.

Should help in keeping the program's roots strong.

I will give DM credit in that he seemed to be able to coach the big guys up at k who

I think that is why you saw their two bigs announce transfers after he was let go. I think he is a good big man assistant coach.

Absolutely love this quote and this is why I think he will be a winner at Wake:

Long trip from being coach at Barton County in Great Bend, Ks.....

No it's working fine. I took it as his sarcasm was that he was countering that waiting would have been a bad idea.

Wake has it's challenges as one of the bottom feeders of the P5.

Steve is 55 years old. I’ll wait to see contract details, but he was making $600k at ETSU while Danny Manning was stealing $1.7 million per year at Wake.

Danny will end up back at KU (still on Endowment board) or as an assistant for his buddy RC down with the Spurs.

… and I wonder who the a$$hole (dick) was that gave him a second chance?

Maybe we should change the thread title to "Manning Out, FORBES IN at Wake Forest"

A definite upgrade!
