Several of those guys have no head coaching experience in a high major program.

My list is about as realistic as most of the names in this thread, so I will not be happy if the administration doesn't commit to winning and hire one of these names.

Just add Al McGuire to the list and now we're talking.

PointWarrior

If Porter Moser is Marquette's next coach, does Sister Jean enter the Transfer Portal?

AlienWarrior

Probably gonna be after the tourney ends. There is a Golden Eagles coach that just won, Paul Mills from Oral Roberts from Houston,Tx-great recruiting location

Avenue Commons

This is Porter Mosier's job to turn down. He lives on North Shore so he could get apartment in Milwaukee for late nights but otherwise not have to move his family.

DePaul wants him BAD.

I could see him staying at Loyola to be honest.

That's sort of my thought. We'll be pitching Moser against Depaul. If not I'd wager Craig smith, maybe Pat Kelsey, can't imagine they'd go with the Cleveland st guy. Exciting tenure but not enough there to make a splash.

Kelsey is my choice.  He can obviously coach.

I think DePaul is going another direction. Also, I'm not sure that Moser would leave Loyola for another school in Chicago. That could put MU in play, if he's interested in making a move.

Just my dumb dumb thoughts

I agree with all your thoughts. Except Shaka since there is smoke there.

Take Beilein for 3 to 4 years then get Doc to come home and finish his coaching career at MU.

I don't care where he lands.  I am about who is next.
You're already talking down the next coach (MU will strike out on 4 and "settle" for Wardle).

Look - I'm sorry you were wrong about Wojo's coaching abilities. I'm sorry you were wrong about the school not firing Wojo. I'm sorry you were wrong about the university coming out in public support of Wojo in the immediate aftermath of yesterday's blog / billboard. It sucks to have so much egg in your face - I can understand that.

But can you just swallow your pride here, admit Wojo needed to Gojo, and be optimistic that the next guy can take MUBB back to the place where it needs to be? It's the least you can do.

I get it...you're just going to pull for whoever is the coach at MU until they aren't anymore...but when you defend him as a good coach...by that logic teams should be interested.  The fact that you already know they aren't says something.

No (unless we make his son coach in waiting)

Jeff Goodman @GoodmanHoops

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

Double hell no

Quote from: cheebs09 on March 19, 2021, 12:54:20 PM
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.

Yes and yes

Quote from: Billy Hoyle on March 19, 2021, 12:56:59 PM
Add in Medved. I don't know if DeVries is a realistic candidate. Signed that extension at Drake and the AD's Scholls' boy.

Not sure but both are solid

Quote from: MU Courtside on March 19, 2021, 12:58:16 PM
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.

There's definitely a faction that would push for that

Quote from: MuggsyB on March 19, 2021, 12:58:48 PM
I think we need to go for it meaning a gargantuan swing.  Beilein, Oats, and then perhaps Moser.

No (see above), no (12.5 million buyout), and no

I would kick the tires on Bob Richey @ Furman.

F*ck no

Quote from: Silent Verbal on March 19, 2021, 01:16:46 PM
Let's dream big guys.  Oats may be too expensive, but who knows?  Beilein, Matta. 

All the Projos were wrong about Wojo's firing.  They could be wrong about Pitino, too.

No (he is too expensive), no (see above), no (already said no), and no (for very obvious reasons)

Quote from: nyg on March 19, 2021, 01:18:21 PM
Some one told me Chris Mooney from Richmond is in the mix.  Had two bad years few years ago, but righted the ship and has been an outstanding coach over the years.

No

No

Quote from: muhoops1 on March 19, 2021, 01:32:19 PM
What about Brad Sodeberg from UVA?  Played for Dick Bennett at UWSP.  HC at UW, SLU and top assistant at UVA?  WI ties.

I don't think any assistants make the list

Quote from: Knight Commission on March 19, 2021, 01:32:49 PM
I would've welcomed  Pat Kelsey at MU 7 years ago, and I would welcome him more now.  A charismastic X and O's coach who can recruit

Don't think so but maybe

Quote from: GooooMarquette on March 19, 2021, 01:36:49 PM
Or maybe Joe Pasternak from UCSB?

Yes but don't think he's high on the list

Quote from: Pakuni on March 19, 2021, 01:51:13 PM
The Athletic's Brian Hamilton on what's next. Sounds like he hangs out here:

Ritchie McKay, Wes Miller

Yes, No

Quote from: willie warrior on March 19, 2021, 02:48:50 PM
Never gonna get Shaka or Bennett

Correct

Quote from: oldwarrior81 on March 19, 2021, 03:02:00 PM
I'd rather have Gregg Marshall than Pitino.

Marshall has some baggage, (but what's hitting a player and choking an assistant coach?  Back in Al's day it was considered fiery.)
He got over a $7 million buyout from Wichita State, so he's probably not hurting for cash.  Also still in his 50's.

After his rebuild season at Wichita he averaged 27 wins per season over his last 11 years.

Double F*ck no

Quote from: WarriorFan on March 19, 2021, 03:28:52 PM
My list:

1.  Ed Cooley
2. Doc Rivers
3. Becky Hammon
4.  Brad Stevens
5.  Ryan Saunders
6.  Tom Crean
7.  David Blatt
8.  Mike Anderson

As I review it seems very outside the box, but the NBA style of play with spacing and shooting wins games and is exciting AND wins in the Big East (ref:  Nova).  Cooley and Anderson don't have that style but they have aggressive D and fun to watch teams.  Given MU's resources, any of  these can win.

That's...something

ChitownSpaceForRent

I really don't understand why Moser is so low on everybody's list. Lets take todays game as an example.

GT was killing them early, and giving them hell defensively. Moser recognized it, moved Krutwig away from the post to open up space and now they're up 8 with 2 minutes to play.

Call the Loyola Chicago Coach.

Updated Athletic story lists Belein, Smith, Stan, Moser, Gates, Ward and McKay as the leading candidates.  Says Moser and McKay are the most likely.

No I didn't.

But it was never an excuse for MU to lose without out best player. So it's not an excuse for Georgia Tech.

Call the Loyola Chicago guy.

Ritchie McKay, Wes Miller

Yes, No


McKay is well below .500 (54-71) as a HC in non-1 bid conferences.  It seems he's got it going well at Liberty after he spent time at UVA, but thats a massive red flag for an older guy.  Especially since the ASUN has been absolutely putrid the last few years, its hard to gauge.
