Cut the Negative Crap Out

[zephyr]

Yes, read that a thousand times about MBB. And that poor horse has been beaten into dust. Just sayin’…tolerance cuts both ways.

We are beyond the point of "concern" for MBB.

Bobby is like a bad credit risk. I’d rather get a guy without any history than to a guy whose been a poor payer.

Clearly not The same situation with Bob and Mike.

Yes. I'd be much more willing to pull the trigger on a younger, up and coming but unproven coach than in football where the foundation is already there. At this point, I'd be behind just about anybody for the MBB job outside of what we have.

We have a commissioner from a basketball conference. Dude has to know the college MBB network. When the time comes, clean house, national search, start fresh.

Apples and oranges. Several years into a tenure and 48 hours into a tenure. No comparison.

I sure wouldn't want to see them storm out of the room in anger. But a guy who recruited most of those guys should be loved. Here's the thing. You don't think the Notre Dame players weren't all excited about their DC getting hired? Of course players are gonna naturally want one of their own & be more excited about that. I'm not mad about it. But the main thing people want to know is that Mike was heads & shoulders above every other candidate. Because if UL was ever in a position to cherry pick the best candidate possible, it was now.

Fair point, but I'll counter with this: If Mike didn't get this job, he was going to get another. How mad would we be if he went elsewhere, replicated what Napier and staff did here, and then went on to be a big name in college coaching?

Please clarify. Last I heard on here, he was looking to go to NV to be their coach?

You may be thinking about Matt but he will probably head to Admiral Doyle once the dust clears in a few weeks. Major shakeups coming.
