Wait. I just opened a fortune cookie. It says "Your love light shines on another."

 

Better make that 02:14 GMT on Wednesday March 26th -- just to be safe.

There are only so many good coaches. Sit around and they will be all taken.

 

What happened to Bruce Pearl and Buzz Williams? --Gone in a snap.

 

Let's just wait till May and hire John Pelphrey.

 

... What does what happened to them have to do with our search?

 

And I wouldn't have that big of a problem with Pelphrey ... The board college basketball know-it-all says it's more about recruiting, especially in Florida, than coaching so coming from UF should be a great asset there ... Plus, someone who's opinion I DO value. who posts here, has endorsed him as a one of his top choices.

QFT. If you expect that we'll be able to really compete with good ACC or SEC schools for these proven coaches, you haven't taken a long enough look at our bball resume. In fact, if Howland was even remotely considering us, that hope is likely gone with the vacancy at Marquette.

Looks like we botched it.

And when Masiello starts winning 23+ games a year for someone else, I will blame USF.

BC and Wake are the two happiest schools in the country right now.

So, we basically hired and dismissed a coach by Wednesday.

 

Harlan laughed in your face on this one.  "Friday, Ha!  I'll show them!"

it needs to be right hire whether Friday or in 2 weeks

 

Finally someone with some flippin common sense... however given the fact that USF is only open to interviewing one head coach candidate, I don't see this thing coming out good.

 

If USF was serious about building a real program then they would have a top 10 list, and interview all of them. 

 

The search firm should be used to weed out unacceptable candidates that don't meet the criteria set out by the USF AD... however I'm getting the feeling that USF is just allowing the search firm to play God and hand pick a candidate that they like... might not be the best choice, but by god the search firm likes them.
