2019 Coaching Carousel

Not slander and lies. Just because it didn't get convicted does not mean it did not happen

Shhh....


But as I said before the tournament started, Buzzard has a cakewalk to the Sweet 16, even if Mississippi State won, which they didn't.  An absolute cake walk.

Crapshoot, aina?

Yup, possible....but poorly seeded teams for them.  Definitely no screw job, but would love to see Liberty beat them (won't happen).

Buzz and Ritchie are buddies.  Will be interesting.

[Herman Cain]

Rooting for Buzz to go all the way to the final four. Will be interesting to see how much coin he can generate off that

Not convicted? How about not charged? This is the one time in his entire life Chico has swallowed the accusation = guilty line. Reason? Buzz coached the kids who were accused. Period. #Hypocrite (not you Galway, I know you're a #MeToo guy - but Chico - LOL)

Not charged whatever it did happen there are plenty of assaults and rapes that there's nothing charged. It was pre era of getting a conviction when there was any alcohol involved, at that point in time I'm not shocked neither girl went ahead with it especially when MU had already botched it. To the extent of cover up vs total ineptitude I don't know.

I do agree you've succeeded at pointing out a bit of hypocrisy here on his part.

[shoothoops]

Yup, guy with almost 500 wins.  And when I wanted him, among others, he was doing just fine.  Two time SEC Coach of the year, two time MVC coach of the year.  Yup, what a terrible choice....almost as bad as simply sweeping a rape under the rug but since you liked the coach it was ok and should just be ignore.  Nothing to see here....

Stallings was solid if uneven at Vandy.  They had highs and lows. Defeated the number one team in the country a few times, including back to back years. But they also lost twice to 13 seeds in NCAA's and once to a 12 seed. It took him 5 years to get it going and make the NCAA's. 1 for 7, then 2 for 8. But those two were Sweet 16's. Had a great game one year vs Georgetown and was close to elite 8. He was chummy with Rick Byrd over at Belmont.  He spent six figures of his own money to help pay for a Vandy trip to Australia, forgoing a raise.  7 tor 17 NCAA's. So he had them going about every other year after getting it going. But it had been a while since thise sweet 16's. Won a conference tourney once. He had a little bit of roster turnover with a few players later in his time there. He's a good x's and o's coach. He understands offensive basketball. Defense was not a strength nor was recruiting. But he overall did a "solid" job at Vandy.

It will be interesting to see who Vandy gets to replace Drew.

After thinking about it, I wonder if the new AD already has someone in mind.  Obviously a bad year for Bryce Drew but if Garland stays healthy, it's a different season.

Cal fires Wyking Jones, speculation is Kidd is going back to his alma mater, to be their next coach.

Kobe didn't rape that girl in Colorado either, but magically her bank account exploded by millions of dollars.  Settlements are interesting....

He didn't tweet it though so its all good.

[Cheeks]

The settlement was for being a bad guest at the hotel apparently....

You guys both cracked me up!

And now it's official:

Jon Rothstein @JonRothstein
Sources: Nebraska has parted ways with Tim Miles.

[StillWarriors]

Cal fires Wyking Jones, speculation is Kidd is going back to his alma mater, to be their next coach.

I thought that was out because he never obtained his degree. Sounded like that may be a prereq for the job from what I read.

[Billy Hoyle]

Kidd will likely wait to get the Lakers job. The degree thing is a major impediment too. Turner from UCI makes a ton of sense for that job.  The top candidate is probalby Randy Bennett. Is this the job he leaves St. Mary's for?

Dave Rose out at BYU.  A very shallow pool of candidates since one has to be LDS to be hired there. It's basically Mark Pope and Mark Pope.

Pakuni liked settlements in the past when they covered bad behavior as a remedy....there are other examples.  Again, apparently Kobe was just a bad hotel guest so he settled with the woman, the non-owner of the hotel.  LOL

I know you're smarter then this Chicos...Companies/wealthy people "settle" all the time to save themselves from bad publicity, a court hearing etc. It does NOT always mean the person/place was guilty of something..in a lot of instances, it is just easier for the company to give the person some $$ to make it go away.

The NFL "settled" with Kaepernick, but that doesn't mean they colluded(they didn't). It just got to the point where they would rather have it just go away, then deal with it anymore...what's a few million to an entity like them anyway??

[Cheeks]

Must you ruin every thread?

I was going to ask you the same thing....so its ok for you on countless occasions to say settlements are typically conducive repayment for bad behavior, but when I suggest the same thing it is wrong.  Notice a bit of inconsistency?

Look, Pak, I like you a lot....smart guy, good poster, good fan....but glass houses man.

Yes, that is true for some things, 100% agree.  What is also true is companies, individuals, universities go into settlement mode because they don't want the bad PR, don't want discovery process in a trial, and are attempting to limit their losses.  I know you are smart enough to also recognize this, Guru.

Let me know when a worthwhile coaching carousel thread opens

Mike Anderson out at Arkansas.  5 openings currently in the SEC
