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.

Heath had some good recruits.  Big mistake firing him.  That's what happens when the President who is an old lady gets to fire the coach.  She said at one time he got fired because he played boring ba

Since 1990 we have had 20+ win seasons twice.. Brian Gregory has won 20+ six time since 2003. While he may not be the superhero we want, he may be more than the one we deserve. Give him a shot.

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

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

    We've talked about getting back to being the toughest, most violent people out there. Let's be the best version of ourselves and really get back to the culture of how we (USF) used to step across the line and play anybody. Let's hold on to the culture of when they were tough … and they (opponents) knew it was going to be long damn day for themselves.
