2023 Coaching Carousel

Poaching a successful B1G coach?  Love it.

Goodman says Micah Shrewsberry is a top candidate for Georgetown.

That, or Goodman is try to get him a raise at Penn State.  Goodman loves getting coaches raises

I was going to ask if a somewhat successful Big-Whatever coach would be interested in the GU job? It would be fun if Micah took the step up into the best hoops conference in the country...

Ceiling isn't very high at Penn State.  Much higher at Georgetown.

It's been a while since a post made me actually chuckle out loud.

I did the same thing.  I read it with Crean's voice, too.

Walt is hearing Tan Tom is a leading candidate (?):

Walt The ShineMaster
@WaltShineMaster
Replying to @GoodmanHoops
and @Stadium

All the @GeorgetownHoops boosters I've networked with have mentioned
@TomCrean as the top candidate. The two sides have engaged in talks.

Yep this sounds about right for that pathetic program

I get the feeling that if Pitino wasn't available, Anderson would still be the SJU coach.

Not loving the prospect of having Pitino in the conference.  The NBE has had a reputation for being squeaky clean.

Sean Miller agrees.

Sean Miller agrees. 

And McDermott.

Hmmm...

One source on Georgetown and Rick Pitino:
"Rick would walk to Georgetown. It would be done in 5 minutes. But the Hoyas aren't going in that direction."

Jeff Goodman
@GoodmanHoops
Georgetown will make a run at Providence coach Ed Cooley, source told @Stadium.
No surprise, obviously.
Sources say that Cooley will listen to the Hoyas offer.
I'd still be surprised if Cooley actually makes that move within the league.

So they'll pass on Pitino, strike out on a Cooley and settle for TC. Sounds about right

[Tyler COLEk]

Maybe everyone is joking, but there's no chance Georgetown hires Tom Crean. There's quite a bit of Twitter noise about him and Western Kentucky though.

Strong preference for Cooley. Cites NIL challenges at Providence. Brey back up choice. No mention of Shrewsbury.

Notre Dame:

Shrewsberry

Georgetown's president is on the ncaa board. You're not escaping NIL challenges going to Georgetown.

What does one have to do with the other?

An NCAA board member will be less likely to allow his institution to play the "Wild West" (ncaa viewpoint not mine) game of NIL than someone not directly associated with the NCAA.

My guess is Cooley's frustrations is lack of money. Not inability to go all "Wild West."

Anyway Fanta tweeted that it looks like Georgetown got whomever they were targeting.

I just saw a report they are targeting Shrewsberry.

An older SH fan sitting behind us during the PC/UCONN game told me the reason that PC was playing so poorly (until their rally that was too little, too late) was that the players learned that Cooley was open to discussions with GT. I checked the net after the game and saw nothing to indicate that there was any truth to it, as I really suspected he was shooting BS. I have no idea where he got that info, but I was not believing it at the time.

Given the Fanta tweet, the mike Brey timeline aligns

It's kind of an uninspiring hire if that's the case. He's solid but I would have thought gtown would target someone that could bring them back to the glory days. 

[The Sultan]

Brey would be beyond uninspiring. Can't believe you'd do all this work to get out from the Thompson legacy - only to hire him.
