I was a Capko guy only if we went the Asst. route. This is an A+ move. Kudos to VPMK if true. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Way better resume than the last couple guys we hired. Has the clout to recruit well too I've seen a lot of ND basketball under Mike and he won without top talent. That's the thing that made him the most attractive to me as a candidate. We're not out-recruiting anyone, so we need a guy who can X and O and beat teams that have better talent and lesser coaching (See: Hardaway, Penny). AND he can coach offense - unlike BG. We'll be better and more sound on the offensive end. We won't turn it over like we have and we'll shoot it better because that's what he values in the guys he has on his roster. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find it hard to believe that he's coming into our program to cash a paycheck and ruin that legacy. I'm willing to bet he is re-energized and has us competing very quickly. If it's completed, it's a GREAT hire and Michael Kelly deserves credit. We shall see if he grinds his ass off or does what Holtz did and basically half assed it while enjoying Paradise in Florida Edited March 20, 2023 by Bull Awakening 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I will say that I trust Russ Wood 1,000% over Joey or anyone else when it comes to USF hoops news.
