Isaac Brown Named Interim Head Coach

[Ted Lasso's Neighbor]

Eric Brown is the new Interim Head Coach of the Wichita State Shockers (done deal).

Is he related to Isaac?

Probably.

We can do WAY worse than getting Penny level results IMO

Coach Penny is the definition of squandered talent.

Coach Penny is the definition of squandered talent.

That has performed at a similar level to our coached up talent the last 2 years. Including winning 3 of 4.

Glad you’ve decided to accept reality so quickly.

Penny is dirty. Marshall is just mean.

It took penny loading his roster like a video game to do it. No thanks.

As a testament to Eric's coaching prowess, he has developed players such as Rob Baker and Malcolm Armstrong.

I'm fine with Eric hitting it out of the park as long as his locker is cleaned out by the end of the season. Nothing against the man. He's just not capable of leading a team as demonstrated by his job history. Wichita State... ain't his big break. If we were to skip out on legitimate proven head coaches at the end of the season due to some Cinderella run by Eric, it would be the biggest disaster next to firing Gregg Marshall.

I’m not advocating for the guy as the long term solution by any means, but it should also be pointed out that every coach works as an assistant before getting the big gig

That's only because he was given the tools he needed from ADCB.

You wanna know something really funny? I thought Eric was the dude that Marshall hired recently that played PG for him at Winthrop. I obviously don't pay much attention to "the help" unless they really stand out. Good luck to Eric, but developer and head coach are two vastly different job descriptions.

[1972Shocker]

Coach Brown was entering his 7th season on 3G's staff so that is ab out as much exposure and loyalty to 3G as any assistant has had. Jans 6 years before he took the BGSU job and then 2 years as a special assistant after returning from exile before taking the NMSU job. Heiar was here for 6 years before leaving for LSU. Earl Grant was with 3G for 3 years at Winthrop and 3 years at WSU.

Not sure what that means but glad Coach Brown is getting the interim head coach gig and, hopefully, a nice boost to his paycheck even though it may only be for the rest of this season. I think whoever is hired as the permanent head coach, if not Coach Brown which is probably not likely, might want to give some consideration to keeping Coach Brown around if both parties are open to that.

If Chris is hired, I think it could be very possible to keep both Isaac and Lou.

I wish Coach Brown all the best.
What a terrible position to be placed into.
I root for our players and hope they do well.

Just not sure if I am rooting for this University any more.
Loyalty means something to me.
Sad at this result and disgusted by it.

Probably will watch a couple of games, but won't be setting my calendar around it like I did for the past 50 years.

Good poem.
