Firing a HC from his first job as a head coach, just to hire somebody who has never been a head coach, is not a home run.

Originally posted by Downtown Shocker Brown View PostPerhaps a view of defensive efficiency should be included also.
He inherited a team with one player who shot above 32%.
In four months he built a team from nothing to making the NCAA tournament. WSU roster as it was is an 8 seed at worse with Chris Jans as coach.
While highly unlikely we have the money needed to buy out his contract, we would be fortunate to have him back at Wichita State.

No offense but are you guys forgetting earlier in the season when we played really good defense and the offense was terrible? We were below .500. Just playing good defense doesn't solve everything. You have to have an offense as well.
His defense is even better. The goal is to score more points than you allow. Not just limit points or in your argument score points.
If offense was ranked in middle or bottom, that would change the narrative.

I don't think so. Since he's just an assistant, its not the same as a head coach leaving when it comes to a distraction. I'm sure the players will be more excited than disappointed if Kellen gets a head coach spot.

No offense taken. His offense isn’t terrible. It’s top 1/3 in each of the ratings shared.

Just last year ECU hired Mike Schwartz while Tennessee was still in the tournament.
I think I remember hearing that Chris would have still been announced as Bowling Green coach that same week even if we had beaten Kentucky in 2014.
So yeah, not uncommon for assistants to get HC jobs announced even with season continuing.78-65
