The coach at Wake Forest resigned tonight.

Yep and Harlan coming on board on in a few days to rush things along was a smart move.

This is where I'm a little concerned. We are all thinking bball is on the same level of importance as football to the USF heads. I have no clue how much USF is willing to spend to get us a new coach. And don't forget the budget for assistants.

 

So when we say there's more competition, I'm fearful that we are not in the same market: you can't get a good car if you're only willing to spend motorcycle money.

 

I wish I knew how that firm advertises or reaches out possible candidates. I'd like to see what we are offering for the job.

I think the window closed on a flashy hire, so we're moving into bargain up and comer territory. Dollars are no longer an issue.

Just get a good coach. I feel x and o is most important. Then go from there.

It is, but a little short term excitement would be nice.

In my experience at usf I have learned to not trust any hire usf makes, including this new ad.

Unfortunately I haven't been wrong yet.

Go bulls

Agree that the flashy hire is gone but aren't Howland and Buzz still in play .... at least in our dreams?

I guess. But I'm of the opinion that if we were going hard after those guys we wouldn't need a search firm and there'd be no need to wait this long. One is unemployed and the other is on his couch.

Hold on. I haven't been paying attention. MU didn't make one of the top two post season tourneys? ...... We're down to Howland, then .... maybe he's making Harlan beg a little after canning him at UCLA.
