OT: 2021 Coaching Carousel

[MU82]

I don't know who Sultan is, but I know that is not me. Just because a school is a football school, doesn't mean that it isn't hoops (and AD) friendly.

"Sultan" is part of Non-Salesperson's long-ago screen name.

Try apples to apples. Texas and Oklahoma are in the same league.

You just made my point. Thank you.

[bilsu]

The next 6 years will be interesting. I predict Oklahoma does better than MU in that time.

We're well aware you're not a fan of Shaka.  Go root for Moser in Norman, BOOMER SOONER!!

Just curious . Why do you think that?

Such horseshit. Trying to get out from a bad hire by finding a reason to fire him for cause.

[Nukem2]

Such horsecrap. Trying to get out from a bad hire by finding a reason to fire him for cause.

This is the Fluffy Sultan.

[4everwarriors]

Aka the Sultan of Blue Monster, aina?

Is he a bad hire though?  He was very good at NKU, had a good first year when he moved across the river.  Cincy has an inflated sense of their place and the attractiveness of that gig.  I don't think suitors will be knocking down their door.

When you have roster turnover like that, especially when you recruited those guys, it probably isn't working.

Nate Oats has talked about the positives of being at a school where FB is king.

Michigan, MSU, Bucky, Ohio Stars, Okie State, Oregon, Florida, FSU, are all schools where both sports are able to succeed at high levels for sustained periods.

NC newspapers are reporting that the "usual suspects" have been interviewed by UNC AD Bubba Cunningham:

Davis, Miller, Robinson, Stackhouse.

Also Monmouth coach King Rice, the 2021 MEAC CoY who has won 3 league titles in the past 6 years and played at UNC from 1987-91.

Just take all five of those and add Stallings as a bench coach, and you'd have recruiting, offensive sets, player development etc...all covered. Rice was a really good assistant for Stallings. Stallings loves UNC, his kid played baseball there. Add Stack, Davis, Miller, Robinson, and just make it one staff.

[TSmith34, Inc.]

Or the Dakotas?

Alabama is disappointed not to make this list

According to reports, several of those interviewed were asked if they would be willing to serve on the staff of whomever is hired as head coach.

There you go.

It wasn't a secret that Stallings' dream job was UNC. He was well aware during his career that he wasn't qualified. He was a Roy Williams assistant. As mentioned his son played baseball at UNC. Stallings is a good hoops mind. Really good out of bounds plays, X's, O's.

King Rice was an assistant to Stallings. He's a good coach and recruiter.

Stack has good offensive sets and he is elite ar player development.

You could go down the line there with a variety of different skill sets and have something unique. Far fetched perhaps.

Farfetched definitely. They ain't gonna build a Justice League of Superhero coaches.

And Stallings? His name wasn't even mentioned, so that would be quite a surprise.

As a bench coach/advisor. He isn't going to be a head coach or recruiter. But he is very good at X's and O's. He has a lot of UNC ties.

He didn't play for UNC, but he is close with some of the others, Rice (who was a Stallings assistant, Roy Williams, for whom Stallings was an assistant) A less experienced Head Coach could do worse than have Stallings as a bench coach/advisor. He successfully ran a Power 5 program for the better part of a couple of decades after assisting at another.

I don't think Stack or Davis would likely want to be someone else's assistant, especially Stackhouse. Rice would consider being an assistant there.

But you never know.

Those providence teams were some of the worst squads I've ever seen a non DePaul team put together.

Ah, gotcha. Fair enough. We'll see!

Dude had one good year at Drake, after taking over from his father, and turned it into 12 years of coaching D1 ball at a slightly lower than .500 clip.
