Who do you want?
I posted this on a previous page. If Jarmond wants to just cut me a check for $100k I did the search committees job below.
- Bill Coen (Northeastern) (We can do better than this)
Good. Because you can't have him. Not for sale. Stay the fuck away from him.
BC923 {l Wrote}:If we were to make a move, what is the timeline?
HJS {l Wrote}:eepstein0 {l Wrote}:HJS {l Wrote}:eepstein0 {l Wrote}:A-List:
- Thad Matta (Ohio St formerly) (this is health dependent)
- Kevin Willard (Seton Hall) (this would be high on my list)
- Mick Cronin (Cincinnati) (also very high on my list)
- Ed Cooley (Providence) (I'm not nuts about this idea, but he would do well here)
- Wojo (Marquette) (He's winning at a school very similar to BC)
B-List:
- Wes Miller (UNCG) (He's young, has ACC connections and UNCG was a train-wreck before he turned it around)
- Mark Schmidt (Bonnies) (He's really well connected & the Bonnies were a total teardown job also)
- Eric Musselman (Nevada) (Doubt he's coming East for this job, but he's a good coach)
None of these names would be a program defining moment. However, I'd be happy to give any of the first 6 names listed a shot. That said, I doubt any of the first 5 would take the BC job. That would leave us with Wes Miller... who I think is actually a very good choice.
If Buzz would leave Marquette for VT, any of those guys would leave their current destination for BC. I added Shaka Smart to the A-List also, he's going to be fired shortly and is a good coach.
In my opinion, Shaka would be a program-defining moment. I think he is an excellent coach who would win with players that he'd land at BC. However, I think he's being retained by Texas. It is a shame though. BC would be all over hiring a guy who is being financially supported by another program.

It means the emperor has no clothes. Jarmond's first big time hire would be looking at a tired list of former BC assistants and Brian Gregory (with a sprinkling of former Matta assistants). Oh... and Mark Schmidt!!!!

Our last two hires have been new to BC and New England and been disasters. I have no problem going with someone familiar with BC and who knows how to manuver the landmines.

The reason Beeker and this latest disaster didn't succeed has nothing to do with "getting BC" or "BC landmines".

Any of those Big East coaches are such a huge upgrade over JC.
twballgame9 {l Wrote}:Just looked at Cooley's record at Providence, are you really serious? He's coaching a bubble team in a weaker conference that never wins in the NCAAs despite landing very good recruits with limited admissions restrictions.
I've watched Cooley call play many times. Makes Christian look like John Wooden.
71-73 in whatever they are calling the conference that has Patrick Ewing and that putz Wojo coaching in it. No wonder Chris Mack was reluctant to leave.
NJM89 {l Wrote}:Hopefully this has some meaning to it. Maybe leaving behind a team for a new staff to coach.

You must acknowledge winning in the modern day ACC is a different animal than the CAA

Granted. But (at the moment, and for the foreseeable future) Northeastern is in the CAA. So we have to win in the CAA. That happens with Bill Coen. It doesn't seem to happen with anyone else. So, don't touch him.
I got real nervous watching the Miami-VPI game this afternoon. They showed the list of teams that punched tickets. There was my alma mater. Sean McDonough commented looking at the list....Sean {l Wrote}:You know which coach from that list of teams is really undervalued, Bill Coen.
The two of them started yakking about Bill Coen and BC and yadda-yadda, and I was like, SHUT THE FUCK UP SEAN! I do NOT want Bill getting any offers because I know he'll bolt. And we can't replace him.
That said, I want BC to win so you can have any other coach in the world other than Coen.

He'd be cheap, which we know is a BC prerequisite.
