The Celtics did practice at the AL when they played the Bucks in the Playoffs in 2019.

This thread is going to be equal parts delusion and hilarity.

I for one, am looking forward to it.

Can't wait to see Tom Crean do anything and everything he can to get back to Marquette. ...

I support this initiative.

I'm thinking Dennis Gates or Craig Smith as my realistic top 2. Gates has the resume of a top assistant plus us done a great job at Cleveland State. Smith has be successful at two stops and been a high major assistant.

Crean sucks

[Skip Intro]

Whoever it is, I hope it's finalized relatively soon.  You have to imagine that most of our current roster will enter the transfer portal or decommit, but this is easily the best year to reload via the transfer market.  Having a coach in place soon will be key to getting some of the good ones, with what could be almost unlimited playing time available.

I wouldn't hate Archie Miller as the hire.  Who knows how it would pan out, but I'd be willing to give him the ol' 5 year try.  Same goes for Porter Moser.
Beilein would be great, but at his age, you have to imagine that he'd be a short-term solution and we'd need to be thinking about his eventual replacement from day one. 

If it's Wardle, we're in trouble.

Add in Medved. I don't know if DeVries is a realistic candidate. Signed that extension at Drake and the AD's Scholls' boy.

I wonder we got intel DePaul was going to hire Gates so we made the move. We rushed to hire Deane because Dayton was going to hire him.

I'm just hoping we move on from the up-and-coming-assistant idea. Let's go out and get a proven HC.

[MU Courtside]

Probably shouldn't want this because he was on Wojo's staff...but any thoughts on Stan coming back? I really liked him. Had a good first year at LMU.

[MuggsyB]

I think we need to go for it meaning a gargantuan swing.  Beilein, Oats, and then perhaps Moser.

I'd put his odds at 1% higher than Pitino

Bring back an assistant who was on staff with a teams that didn't meet everyone's standards.  Why would we do that?

Last time we tried that we got Mike Deane. Before that, Bob Dukiet.
Which isn't to say it would be wrong this time. But there's no right or wrong answer.

[withoutbias]

Beilien should be the pipe dream call. Gates should be the second call.

No thanks on Moser. Belein would be awesome. Don't think Oats is realistic at all.
