Will be interesting to see who they both get offers from. Hope we're in the mix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

USF has its own characteristics, its own situation and typical type of recruit based on everything in the dynamic - conference, location, history, community support, etc. . We need to find somebody that can take what we have and make it the greatest it can be. That will take a hell of a lot more thought or it’s just another roll of the dice. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone can win in the SEC Not gonna happen but, if I was going for to pursue one of the Ricks, he would be my preference. Plays the kind of basketball I would love to see at USF. That win over Duke was clutch. And he is a Hickory native. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And what is funny is I do believe Seth Greenberg’s USF team beat Barnes Texas team many years ago in the SunDome. Sure I believe we lost the on our return trip to Texas but it goes to show you how much better USF hoops was back then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously we agree on this but how do you incorporate that into a coaching search ..... look for somebody that's had success going into a similar type environment, an environment kind of unique to begin with? This is why I'm not sure how even a hell of a lot more thought doesn't still make this a roll of the dice .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
