2019 Coaching Carousel

He gowne, hey?

[Dr. Blackheart]

He gowne, hey?

Providence should hire Yaklich

[GooooMarquette]

Cooley has been at PC for eight seasons. In that time, he has never finished higher than a tie for third in the BE, and has won a grand total of one NCAA tournament game. His record at PC has been up and down, rather than a gradual but consistent upward trajectory. That earns him considerable respect on this board, and makes him a candidate for a high-profile job at Michigan.

And people are complaining that Wojo is underachieving?

FWIW - I like Cooley; he is a decent coach. But I would take Wojo over him any day of the week.

[tower912]

Testify.

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

Cooley has led PC to their best period of sustained success since the 70s. Wojo has yet to catch up to the coach he took over for. I personally think Cooley is the better coach at this point. Wojo is younger and has time to catch up

[The Sultan]

I didn't realize that Cooley is only 49.

[Skatastrophy]

Wojo has yet to catch up to the coach he took over for.

Wojo took over for a coach that went 17-15 his final season, left the cupboard bare, and whose teams had significant off-court problems because he cuts corners on admissions to get results on the court.

Wojo is doing well, and I look forward to better post season results from his teams.

Going from Beilein to Cooley on the offensive side of the ball would be a shock to the system for Michigan fan

IT'S AN EXCITING TIME IN FRIARTOWN!!!

[KampusFoods]

Nope

[tower912]

But if MU just fires Wojo, the great coaches will be lined up competing to get hired.

I don't disagree at all

Please reference all the writings of Ners for a counterpoint.  Thanks.

but I thought coaches couldn't wait to get out of the Big East?  Especially when a beyond high major, Oxford and the Sorbonne combined institution like Michigan came calling.

Cooley is a Providence native.  So, he's just staying home.

Ironic part about Juwan Howard possible getting the Michigan job...My buddy from high school was the senior team captain at UM the year the Fab Five were freshman. Of the five of them--Howard, King, Weber, Rose and Jackson--my friend said Howard was the most hot-headed, broke team rules all the time and constantly threatened to transfer when the coaches tried to discipline him. Pretty funny that of the five of them he'd end up being UM's coach some day.

Thanks for Enlightening me.

The guy collapsed lasy year and has yet to win a Dance game. Good definition of "Wojo is doing well"

You should protest Wojo by not following the program anymore.

Freddie Hunter or Kirk Taylor?

I was impressed with Howard going pro after his junior year but spending his rookie year finishing his degree during the season so he could walk with King and Jackson.  However, as a coach, he has no experience and the Fab Five has very little cache with recruits today.  The rivalry with Michigan State will go up a notch, many are still mad over Howard wiping his ass on the center court S after beating State his freshman year.

I wonder if they're actually interviewing Howard for the #1 assistant position and giving Yaklich the HC job.

Young adults being unhappy and hard to coach......the more things change the more they stay the same.

Happens everywhere and with players of every ability level.

I'm sure they could offer that, but why would Howard leave an assistant's job in the NBA  - where he's generated some interest as a head coach with several teams - to be Luke Yaklich's assistant? Seems like a big step backwards.
