    New Coach Short List

    This needs its own thread now: Unrealistic But Take a Shot: -Eric Musselman: Not likely to leave USC after one year but doesn't like the B1G travel from CA, so maybe? -Brian Dutcher -Tony Bennett -Bill Self: Tubby Smith Part II? The realistic list: 1. Darian DeVries-WVU-Probably a reach...

    Fire Ben Johnson

    It's officially time. What will be done eventually should be done immediately. The chances of making the NCAA's this year is officially zero. Let the remaining fans know you care and are paying attention. Give the players something to re-group around. And most importantly get a jump on the...

    Go Get Musselman

    It's now or never. He wants out of Arkansas so bad he was flirting with SMU. Next season's roster is imploding. This is your last, best chance. Find the $$ and go do it Mark.

    How to measure success

    Since we've been told by some we can't care about wins this year, and this is at least somewhat true, how do we measure progress for this team? The "eye test" is too vague/subjective. For non-Weakling Wednesday games (14 of the 18 remaining B1G games), I will look for the following: -In at...

    Assistant Coaches

    Seems this could use its own thread. I would love to see Tim Miles, but it seems that's unlikely. Dave Thorson is an obvious one. Another suggestion: Saul Phillips of Northern State/NSDU/Ohio

    Fox Sports North to become Bally's Sports Network

    I have nothing against sports gambling, but re-naming the network and in-game promotion of it? Ugh. I knew the sale to Sinclair would be bad. Imagine longtime play-by-play voice Dick Bremer saying something like: "Rogers has converted seven consecutive save opportunities. Can he make it eight...

    The peak of the Pitino era

    To me it was the the Alabama game in 2017 before the 5-on-3 situation happened. Looked like we were headed to back-to-back top 5 finishes. IIRC, we were 6-0 and running a ranked team out of the building. Then it got weird. Then the whole season went south. The Pitino era never got back to that...

    B1G Final Four droughts

    Purdue failed to break its 39 year streak in a heart-breaker. 1. Nebraska: Never. Have never won a tournament game. 2. Northwestern: Never. Furthest advance: Round of 32 2017. 3. Penn State: 1954. Only appearance 4. Rutgers: 1976. Only appearance. 5. Purdue: 1980. Two appearances. 6...

    Who should be on the list?

    So regardless of your opinion of the current coach, they say every AD should have a short list. Who should be on Coyle's? My list: Long Shots: Mike Brey-Notre Dame Jamie Dixon-TCU (maybe not a total long shot) Chris Mack-Xavier Mick Cronin-Cincy Frank Martin-SC (plus he's shady and involved in...
