This just in...according to sources close to Jim Schuas, if Greg Marshall leaves the Men's Basketball program, Coach Dean Smith, formerly of the North Carolina Tar Heels has agreed to a 7 year coaching contract.

Coach Smith says that the University is close to his roots, is one of the best college venues in the country and the cost of living is excellent for senior citizens on a fixed income.

Coach Smith says that he is bringing 3 McDonald's All American recruits with him and Ehimen Orupke, a highly touted African from Nigera.

All current players would be offerred scholarships to start a new Men's badminton team for the university.

I for one, would not want to play Clemente.

Royal..

Could we delete this entire thread please....I've been sick of it since last year!

It's detrimental to the program, our players and recruits.

Thanks.

While it wouldn't hurt my feelings at all to see this thread deleted, I think saying that anything on a fan message board is detrimental to the program, players and recruits just adds to the insanity of this thread.

If this was just coming out of nowhere, yes, we'd lock it down. But since it has been discussed on the radio it has become a legitimate discussion topic here.

I would just ask everyone to keep a level head and not get too anxious. We're in the middle of a season and there isn't likely to be any real news for at least a month and a half.

Not to worry guys. In my College Hoops 2k7 game. Dana Altman took the South Carolina job when it opened. Of course Lowery ended up at San Diego St. and Turgeon went to Ole Miss. I stepped in from Stony Brook and led the Shocks to 5 straight national championships. I will do it again if I have to.

^well that's not 2k8, is it????

Royal, you can't be serious. You're asking the walking insecurities in this group to keep a level head when it comes to panicky speculation about losing a coach? Good luck with that.

Thanks for the well-wishes! ;-)

no but it happened in the second year of the career so it would be this year

[Ta town]

What we need to do is pull out the "Jump to conclusions" mat and start spouting off possible replacements. :good: :good:

Boyle, Sutton (ORU is on shaky ground now days), and I really can't think of other names.

Who else should join the list?

Drama!

[tropicalshox]

X and MT have already been mentioned.

I would welcome Turgeon back with open arms. I liked Mark, he did a solid job here, and he was a great person. Not to say HCGM isn't. However, if you're talking about coaching, I don't see how Marshall is doing any better of a job than Turgeon did last year

[macshocker2004]

The only reason it doesn't seem like Marshall is doing that great of a job with coaching is because his squad is so shallow in talent. Look at Turgeon's record his first year, if i recall he improved his record pretty much every year up until his last year here. And given the talent he does have on the bench, i would say he's doing a plenty good job coaching.
