Think about that for a second…. What was Turgeon’s resume vs. Mills when he was hired. Glad the program is in a better spot. Now let’s keep it that way.
Was not my first choice, but I am excited to support coach!!!
I'm ready to give Mills a chance.

Sweet-16 last year not too shabby for that league. Did he recruit some "dudes" to Baylor? More importantly can he recruit some "dudes" to Wichita? Idk.
Off the bat...decent hire. Time will tell of course. Go Shocks!!!!
By comparison, WSU's adjO was 144, adjD 81.

I don't remember anybody calling MT #1 up-and-coming coach prospect, I heard him called a KU scumbag.

If he brings back KP and JW and everyone else wants to stay he doesn't have many empty scholarships. Hopefully he has a point guard in mind and maybe a big. If our current players came because it is WSU that's good. If they came because IB was a nice guy, they will have some decisions to make.

We like to cut down nets and get sized for championship rings.

Put me in the camp of moving from underwhelmed to whelmed as I learn more. I hope I eventually become overwhelmed. Also put me in the camp, recalled by Shockercat/Royalshock, who was initially completely disappointed with the Turgeon hire. Lots of us were because of the KU connection. I remember being happy with the GM hire because we had seen him coach his ___ off when we played in the game after him at the 2006 tournament in Greenville. I do remember there were concerns that he couldn't win in the tournament. The villain article certainly helped me see Mills as more GM than IB. I wanted a coach with fire and passion and who will settle for nothing less from his players. I hope Mills is that guy.Wear your seatbelt.
