Jesus Christ people!  Who the hell did you think we would really get?  We have no players, no history, etc.  Right now, this is a huge challenge of a job.

Some of you think we can just go out and get anyone we want.

This is an underwhelming hire no matter how you slice it IMO.  Other than the half joking Bob Knight Discussion I don't see anyone asking for Coach K or John Calapari in here.  I think the biggest beef is we appeared to settle for a coach rather than actually testing the market after the tournaments.  It's kind of like going out to a bar when you're single.  You don't decide if a girl will go home with you or not before you talk to them you talk to her and let her make that call.  You can't surprise yourself if you constantly shoot low.

Coach K sucks. Couldn't even win COY in the ACC. Some chump from GaTech won it this year.

I hope he's not too mad about that where he doesn't focus on winning a sixth national title.  Even though he's favored, it still has to be a bummer he missed out on COY.

Hard pass on Coach K. We already had the coach of the Dominican National Team; do we really need his counter part from the US squad?

Sadly, this still looks like an upgrade.

Brian Gregory as head coach with Murry Bartow as asst coach is lightyears ahead of having Orlando and Oliver Antigua....that is most certainly an

Hell of a point there.

If you end up bringing her home, shooting low is just good etiquette.

What's Doug doing these days? Harlan is just clueless when it comes to basketball hiring imo. I hope I'm wrong but I don't think Gregory is half the coach Heath was. I'm gonna wait and see what his assistants look like but Bartow would have been a better hire since Gregory is the best a sorry AD like Harlan can do. 

Vega, 

Are you okay? That almost sounds like Stan Heath praise.

Hey Doug, hope you're enjoying retirement. It'd be appreciated if you trolled the UCF board instead of TBP.

Thanks

I'm being serious...17 wins at USF next season would put him in serious contention for AAC COY.

17 wins and we will rename Fowler Ave after him
