George Mason's Kim English is being mentioned as a serious contender for the Providence job......interesting.....
Would any of us be excited over that hire?"He called me around noon and was thrilled," Brandt said. "He said he was going to be a Shocker forever." -- RIP Guy, you WILL indeed be a Shocker forever!

And honestly, that’s a worthy concern.
My thought is that coaches like this will be able to land, retain, and attract players with a decent amount of NIL money. They’ve clearly done it without that.
Fun conversation. Challenging opinions are good, so long as they are grounded.

Are there coaches who are not named Richey/DeVries/Kelsey who have been successful at it? My concern is that if you're thinking that way, we're throwing the baby out with the bathwater. Marshall certainly wasn't successful in recruiting NBA-level players at Winthrop until he got to WSU. It's hard to expect coaches to recruit at the level we're used to if they're not at our level, or even close to it.
You just don't know what will happen until a coach gets here. Probably one of many reasons I like the idea of Jans. He gets this place.Last edited by Shocktoberfest; March 20, 2023, 03:31 PM.

He was an assistant for 3 years under Frank Haith at Tulsa, which Frank is a great X's and O's coach, was with Tad Boyle at Colorado for 2 years and then went to Tennessee for 2 years under Rick Barnes.

FHCGM- Has enough time passed that it may not look so controversial for him to be rehired? FHCMT- It was reported that allegedly had IB not had such a great season FHCMT would’ve been hired. Greg Heiar- Makes the most sense in my opinion. Keep IB- The athletic department is strapped for cash and can’t afford to pay 3
