Head Mens Basketball Coaching Search

I would think that David Patrick will be considered strongly from that list. I think the head coaching record is a concern. But those two jobs are traditionally difficult jobs.

As is this one. Much potential but will take someone who can develop it in all facets.

Our job is not a traditionally hard job. Neither UC Riverside nor Sacramento State have ever been to the NCAA tournament nor NIT. UC Riverside contemplated dropping athletics in 2021.

Our job has challenges but it's not on the level of those schools.

At the end of the day, even my 8 year old niece who plays hopscotch for a living would be an improvement

Traditionally, no.

I would say at the moment it will be as hard as at those schools.

Should have never let it get this hard.

Absolutely correct. Should have never gotten this bad.

The product needs to be fixed first and foremost.

Maggard, and to a degree T-Joe, has to fix the dome situation, that’s not on any coach’s responsibility list. That’s a contractual issue.

Schedule, that’s between Maggard and coach. No more non D1 games would be a start. Problem is, pretty much everyone plays a nobody tech @nowhereville. Fillers to get your minimum home games.

A dynamic rah-rah coach can only carry you so far. Any doubt, look at HUD’s downward slide and demise here.

The unfortunate best thing the new coach has, he’ll probably blow it all up and start fresh. As pointed out yesterday, UL won’t out physical anyone this season.

Exactly!!!

I think my top choice is Quannas White. Maybe bring Bobby Champagne (former Cajun coach and Lafayette native who is also on staff at Houston) as his top assistant.

Great idea. That may work.

I'd liked to see a Bobby Paschal type guy hired, that guy would check all the boxes..

No thanks to Wade. I would love for Brad to get a shot and be successful. I just worry about him not being in the college circuit. Maybe he still knows people and think he would relate GREAT with the supporters.

Can we get off the Brad Boyd fantasy please. I’m sure a great guy and a good high school coach but this program has been set back way more that a “couple of years”. Open a NATIONAL search and find a qualified candidate. Boyd is not that guy. For God’s sake he hasn’t even been an assistant at any level of college basketball. Give it a rest.

He was on staff for two years at UL.

Basketball would be the easiest sport to flip from worst to first in the portal era. Especially in the sunbelt. 2 good portal players next year could be a belt trophy.
