The Official List of Scoopers' Suggestions for the Next Head Coach of Marquette

[Warrior_2002]

Gregg Marshall...just don't see it

Yeah could be tough, but he didn't close the door and if he and Doug McD are close, maybe he'd like to coach with him in the same league.  Also interesting how Marshall says something like "don't mess with happy".  Gee I've heard that before.

OP has been modified.

Danny Manning, Tim Miles, and Dwayne Stephens have been added to the list.

I saw a request for Kevin Stallings, but that is the only time I have seen any mention of him. Plus, he seems pretty entrenched at Vanderbilt.

I saw several posts for Brad Stevens, wasn't sure if they were jokes or not. Way out of our reach.

Anyone else I missed?

Bump!

Why not Greg McDermott?  Creighton's gonna suck now with douggie mcbuckets gone, and he knows his way around the conference.  Might not be as good of a recruiter as we need. 

[Blackhat]

Might as well throw Jim Calhoun on there if we want a retread....now there's a resume!

[TJ]

What about Billy Donovan? Have to hold off until he loses, but we should definitely consider him if he's interested.

Amaker's wife teaches at Harvard. I read something in an alumni magazine how they love being there. I really doubt he will ever leave and why would he? His family has a great thing going there. And not that it is a financial burden but their kids get preferential admission and a full ride.

He's locked up for the BC job.  Guy over at Holyland seems to be 100% sure of it.

That could be. They get to stay in the area so it would work. I am surprised, though as he is set for life at Harvard. BC brings a whole host of risk, stress, intrigue, and uncertainty. Why not create a legacy for oneself?

Then the BC job is perfect for him.  Wife stays at Harvard, doesn't have to move, kids get preference at two great academic institutions.

Jim Calhoun wants back, if he doesn't get BC, how about MU?

Pat Kelsey is Xavier's coach in waiting and with high energy and personality what we need to recruit.

Amaker will end up at Duke. No on Calhoun.

You have obviously never followed SEC football.

Boy you hit that one right on the head!

Which one of these would leave their current job and come to MU...Josh Pastner? Mike Brey? Jamie Dixon? Thad Motta?

Uh....none.

Here's a new ESPN Front Page story.  Interesting where this goes.  If Howland wants it, the why didn't MU offer?  Are they waiting for Smart or Marshall?

So .... the team Greg McDermott built is going to suck once his son leaves, but MU should hire him?

MU is talking to a current major college coach, if not these four than who?

[4everwarriors]

Haven't seen this info other than from you. Where did you find it?

A little bird whispered in my ear. I do like the idea of Brey or Motta though.

Jamie Dixon...hmm...

[Big Papi]

My top 3 are:

1. Marshall
2. Smart
3. Howland

If we strike out there, I would seriously consider Chris Collins from Northwestern over all others.  He is recruiting very well at Northwestern and that type of coaching hires has done us well the last 2 times.  I would definitely take him over Wardle, Saul, Miller.
