1) They've been to the Sweet 16 the past 3 years (at this rate it would take Skinner 26 more years to do that). I know TWB: THE TOURNEY IZZZ RANDOMM!! It says nothing about Skinner that he has never beaten a single digit seed in the tourney
2) Their arena is 25% larger than ours and they fill it consistently
3) Here basketball is the 3rd sport, at X it's the first and only
4) I'm sure he doesn't have Napoleon breathing down his neck.

Pearl would be my first choice, but he is not coming.
McCaffery would be ok though a bit old. Same with Barron.
Coen is likely the guy.

So you don't want Chris Mack becuase he hasn't shown anything yet, but Bill Coen is likely the guy? What exactly has Coen shown? A just over .500 record at Northeastern in 4 seasons?

A gem!
bignick33 {l Wrote}:HJS, why do you keep mentioning Lappas?
HJS {l Wrote}:Coming up with a list of top and or promising coaches is an effing joke considering who we have as an AD. The search will be limited to O'Shea, Lappas, Coen, Cooley and Duquette. Done and done. You are a certifiable fool if you believe that GDF is going to offer someone the position who he doesn't have a previous relationship with.
ATLeagle {l Wrote}:I would drive up to Knoxville tonight to help Pearl pack but I don't think he will come to BC. I don't know if we can offer the same money. I know he won't be able to recruit the same type of kids. He will also have to put up with GDFs BS. You would hope though that Bruce is a north east guy who would love to be up in a city again.
McCaffery and Barron are proven so I have no problems with them. I would much rather have Coen though over some wet behind the ears mid major kid. Coen's long tenure at BC counts for a lot in my book. He would be seemless in taking over and in my opinion has very good upside. My biggest concern with Coen would be our defense. It was bad when he was here and has been bad at Northeastern. The guy can recruit. He can sell. He can teach the flex. We will just have to keep out scoring people. Cooley wouldn't be bad either, but I bet Gene would go with Coen first.

Who was the head BB coach at Villanova when GDF was there? Since prior working relationship with our little Napoleon is a pre-req to being hired, Lappas has a MUCH, MUCH, MUCH better chance of getting the position that a Jim Baron or Fran McCaffrey or Bruce Pearl or whoever else has been mentioned not named Cooley, Duquette, Coen and O'Shea.

But, but, but...he subsequently couldn't do anything at Umass, which is well below BC. Hiring Lappas would be incomprehensible, even for this administration. In fact, you're the only one who repeatedly mentions him as a candidate.
TobaccoRoadEagle {l Wrote}:HJS {l Wrote}:...From the what ever happened to file... Matt Dougherty would kill for the job. Long Island guy who was wildly successful at ND. Recruited incredibly well at UNC, but then got run out by those players for running them into the ground. That tough style would be welcomed at BC. The biggest reason he wouldn't be really considered is that he has been pretty terrible over the past 4 years at SMU...
he's batshit crazy... like patches o'houlihan batshit crazy. this is an even worse suggestion than rat face lappas
