    Saw a tweet that said we may be talking with Justin Gainey - another Tennessee assistant. Oh, brother. If we end up with an assistant from some “name” program, I might just combust.

    I have no confidence in Golesh - and neither should any of you. There is absolutely no reason until he shows us. If we go the same route for hoops . . . 

    guess that would keep corey walker here?

  2. Richie Riley-Widely talked about as one of the highest regarded up-and-coming head coaches in Division 1 Men's Basketball, Richie Riley was recently ranked 16th on ESPN.com’s “40 Under 40” list and a finalist for the Ben Jobe Award, presented annually to the top NCAA Division I minority coach by CollegeInsider.com. Known as an elite program builder and high level recruiter, especially in the transfer portal, Richie Riley's South Alabama Jaguars have had a top rated recruiting class all three of his years

    Bob RicheyDuring his time at the helm of the program, Richey has guided the Paladins to an 111-46 overall record and 63-24 mark in Southern Conference play. The Paladins posted back-to-back 25-win seasons in 2019 and 2020 and claimed four straight 20-win seasons for the first time in school history. His .707 winning percentage ranks in the top 10 among active Division I head coaches.

  3. Jared Grasso, Bryant: Grasso has single handedly transformed Bryant into one of the most exciting mid-major programs in the country just years after the Bulldogs won three games in the season prior to his arrival. Bryant was fourth nationally a year ago in adjusted tempo according to KenPom.com and reached the NCAA Tournament for the first time in school history. Now a member of the America East after several seasons in the NEC, the Bulldogs are again in position to again be a national story thanks to an elite transfer class, headlined by former Top-50 recruit Earl Timberlake. 

    Dana Ford, Missouri State: Just 38 years young, Ford is already entering his ninth season as a Division 1 head coach. He’s quietly posted a 40-18 record over the past two seasons with an impressive 25-11 mark in Missouri Valley Conference play. If Ford ever broke through and reached the NCAA Tournament, he’d quickly be on the short list for openings at the power conference level. 

    Jeff Boals, Ohio: Boals led the Bobcats to an NCAA Tournament win over Virginia two years ago and then lost Jason Preston to the NBA. He responded with a 25-win season. While Boals lost his two best players — Mark Sears (Alabama) and Ben Vander Plas (Virginia) — to the transfer portal following last year, he’s too good of a coach to not keep Ohio right in the thick of things in the MAC. 

    Jonas Hayes, Georgia State: Hayes hasn’t coached a game yet at Georgia State, but showed major promise last spring when he led Xavier to a Postseason NIT title as the team’s interim head coach. A former player at Georgia, Hayes is likeable, genuine, and extremely capable as both a coach and recruiter. This a potential star to monitor in the college coaching industry. 

    Chris Capko was promoted to Associate Head Coach for the USC men’s basketball program by head coach Andy Enfield on Aug. 30, 2021, after serving as an assistant coach since April 22, 2016.

  4. With all the negativity on this years team , some of it justafied, because we all see that this teams record should have been better but...we were predicted to finish second from last.  We will be way above that. might even get to the 6/7 seed which can make for an easier path as long as you avoid Houston.  With all that I understand where we have been, but I do think we should give it 1 more year.  Don't want to lose Conwell, Miguel etc.  Hate the always starting over process.  Unless its Pitino lets see what next year brings before we cut the cord
