Who should be Wichita State's Head Coach?

Parrish also confirmed there was interest in getting Turgeon before Brown was kept on.

My absolute disgust towards Boatright knows no limits.

I said two years ago that hiring IB would be so short-sighted. I am vindicated that Gary basically used that same word (short-term).

He also said Gregg and Lynn invited him over for some moonshine. Love it!

I have thought about that a lot, and it's definitely not a problem that is unique to Wichita State. But it could hit us harder than most universities.

They will be naturalized US citizens and soccer fans. I’m not kidding

I'm curious what the Shockernet response to that would have been.

When the "interim" tag was stripped from Brown, he'd just finished a highly improbable run as co-champion of the American conference and was given COY honors.

And Turgeon was still referred to as the guy who claimed he couldn't recruit "at this level."

My guess is Shockernet would not have liked it. Shockernet would have either wanted Brown or someone else, but not Turgeon.

I can't speak for ShockerNet, but I would have wanted neither. At the time, Jans was the easiest and most obvious answer. We had a dumbass leading the department though so that was never an option.

At that time most of Shocker NATION would have HATED a Turgeon hire.

Now, half of them would welcome him just to avoid IB. Lol

Ditto. I was all in on Jans. Go figure tho, to our knowledge, Boatanchor interviewed no one.

what a dumbass.

We'd probably be bitching about being 2nd in the league standings right now, and having a low NCAA tourney seed.

Yeah, I put both Brown and "someone else" in the same category, and Turgeon in the other. My guess is the vast majority would not have been happy with Turgeon. I honestly think at that point in time I would have rather rolled the dice with Brown than go with Turgeon.

This will be an unpopular opinion, but the coaching did not lose this game. We played well out of timeouts until the team would start playing sloppy again. We had the lead down the stretch in regulation and whistles and free throws brought Tulane back in it. Whether you agree with those whistles, that's on you. But it wasn't the coaching.

We will agree to disagree.

We disagree. We still have no clue how to handle a press. Also, shooting 14 threes and only making 1 coming out of the half doesn’t seem like a solid offensive strategy protecting a 13 point lead.

Im not sure how you give coaching a pass on any facet of this game. Blaming the players is a poor excuse.
