HJS {l Wrote}:Third... I mentioned this last week, but does anyone know anything about Mark Schmidt? Former BC player under Gary Williams... was at RMU before Rice... now is at the Bonnies.
HJS {l Wrote}:First... what major conference does Coen and Cooley coach in?
Second... if Oregon hires Jamie Dixon, we won't get a shot at Rice.

Grad assistant at Marquette when it was in the Great Midwest and CUSA
Only prominent asst. coach job was at Pitt, for one year.
Look, I like the guy, but we don't need to reach that far down. Let him succeed at a midmajor multibid league before we go after him.

If Al goes (be it by SJU or buyout), Bill Coen is your new head coach.
HJS {l Wrote}:It's amazing to me that BC is going to pay Al $3.3mm so we can hire Skinner-lite. It is further amazing that we won't interview anyone whose salary demands will exceed $600k.
People here have ripped Skinner for his diamond-in-the-rough recruiting style... yet, here is GDF doing the same. For GDF, it is never about the success of BC sports programs, but his ability to control those running the programs. Jerry York is GDF's worst nightmare (a popular, wildly successful coach, who the fans think is a God, and who is an alum). Every hire GDF makes is to ensure landing someone who is OPPOSITE York.

I think you should wait and see who we hire before passing judgment.

And, when it happens, can I get your assurances that you will come on here and say I was right and GDF can't hire a good coach? I hate all the wait-and-seers who predict greatness and then when they hire Coen or whatever boring, crappy coach... come back here and say how "it's still better than Al" and we should give him a chance.
HJS will never post here again if GDF goes out and hires a Jay Wright or Bruce Pearl or Jamie Dixon or Bruce Pearl type of coach. I can only hope that OJ makes a similar offer we land Coen or Cooley or similar micro-major.

BC is the best available job right now. Look, Jay Wright, Pearl, blah blah blah THEY'RE NOT COMING HERE. It's just not happening. Nor is Bobby Knight. We don't have the basketball tradition to bring those type of guys to BC, or at least I don't think so. Brad Stevens, Steve Donahue, Mack, etc. is what you're looking at. I'll be content with any of those three guys, assuming they can recruit at a big-time level.

You can't mention Bruce Pearl and then say he won't come to BC because of tradition. Tenn just made their first Elite Eight... EVER. We won't get anyone of note because GDF won't explore anyone of note. Brad Stevens won't even be contacted.

You have no fucking clue who the next coach will be, and so far all of the indications are that your whining, crying, and bitching about the "search" are wrong (again). Congrats on being such a fucking whining loser.
tallsy {l Wrote}:Pearl will be contacted. They won't do anything to get him here, but GDF will at least put in a phone call.
No to Amaker. No to Coen. Come on, GDF. This is your chance to make a great hire in hoops.
