UL Basketball Coach ... NEXT

[CajunCanaille]

I am hoping for a big name hire that comes with an impressive resume. Tim Floyd fits that criteria. I would also be satisfied with Kennedy or Butch. I am totally against hiring anyone who is currently a highschool coach. I also wouldn't mind seeing Brad Boyd hop on as an assistant. I think he could bring a lot to a staff.

Who are the candidates for the men's and women's basketball program? This process needs to start on Monday. We need to recruit several kids to fill in the front court.

What's the story with E. Rogers? He's won about 15 games in 3 years. 2009-2010 RECORD 9-21? Now that's progress!!

Dude! Louie Cook!!!!

Just kidding.

As cliche as it sounds, I hope we hire the best coach and the best man that we can afford. The rest works itself out.

_ All right everyone who gives a damn, r whoever you think should be given an oppurtunity to lead this program to more success then the past.... Well who is it gonna be.... The cat from Murray State just won his 30th game tonight.... Butch Pierre has the three best players from Louisiana leaving the state... Man who else is worthy. Who will be THE GUY... _

Coaches? We don't need no stinking coaches!

Are there guys out there who could hire Brad? Don't know. But no one needs Brad to be successful here.

Is there an opening? Right now the only people that are candidates are Lee and Rogers? Both SHOULD resign, but somehow I doubt that will happen.

I wouldn't necessarily be against a Tim Floyd hire. Like you say, he certainly has the credentials and experience and the local ties to recruit not only nationally but locally. About 2 months ago, he is the guy that I would have put first on my list. However, I don't think you'll see the university hire Floyd now. He has too much baggage to his name and they are not into unnecessary risks. I think this is what scared them off about the Orgeron possible hire.

_ They dont know all the high shcool coaches from the area like me and all the AAU coaches from the state.... not saying whoever they hire needs me, but it would be a win for the program, i we havent been getting that many wins lately!!!!

Plus the people I know in the community is a major plus....

JUST WIN BABY!!! _

Big Dave knows the AAU coaches too. Maybe we should hire Big Dave instead of Boyd.

They won't hire Floyd unless he is cleared by the NCAA regarding the USC situation. There are rumors out there that he will be cleared very shortly. How accurate those are I don't know. If true, he will be a candidate. Now his asking price may be one we can't afford. Now I say this as he may still have a pretty high salary were he to stay with the Hornets.
