I'm gonna go ahead and believe this is IB making moves on the staff. I've decided to be irrationally positive about everything moving forward. Online narc order will be here this weekend.

the fact that the hire is announced right after the announcement of Gudino leaving definitely feels like it was a coordinated move.

Let's pray he's a 'high level' recruiter... dear 8-pound, 6-ounce, newborn infant Jesus...

Yipes stripes beechnut gum!

From that article: "Pierre was viewed as an ace recruiter when he took over the job in 2019, the former Mississippi State starter shining in stints with LSU, Oklahoma State, N.C. State and Memphis and credited with building LSU's Final Four team in 2006."

I like Final Fours.

Judging by his record at Northwest Florida, he needs to stick with his recruiting talents.

[SubGod22]

How do we know he wasn't asked to leave? As far as I'm concerned, staying status quo is not moving forward.

He wouldn't have been at the top of my list of assistants to be moved on from.

Except he couldn’t recruit talent to a juco.

And yet he's ended up at UTEP. Maybe I'm just too used to expecting bad when it comes to the current program and those running things.

Taylor says he doesn't think Butch will be named the new Associate Head Coach. Will it be Kennedy or are we not finished yet?

not finished. With Pierre and Waterman, we have 2 recruiters. Now we need a game planning assistant.

When I said I miss the 90s, this isn't what I had in mind. Excuse me while I put on Office Space and Beastie Boys.

Cool, man. I'll page you and we can meet up and play NHL 95 on my Sega and head over to the Y-Not.

Edit: I don't know you, but if this were to honestly happen it would probably be the most fun I've had since 2019.

Yeah judging by how he torpedoed the proud program at NW Florida....I think we definitely need a "coach" now instead of more recruiters.

[ShockTalk]

So, we now have a boat load of recruiters and a bump on a log. Guessing that Lou's "style" of coaching was not IB's. Hope to be totally wrong, but this does not give me warm fuzzies.
