Next Coach

[Uncle Rico]

With Marquette's season a colossal failure and loss, swirling its way to Bolivia and Shaka perilously close to a nickname from which he'll never recover, it's time to have the discussion about who should replace him. 

I gave 4 good options but left a fifth option if you have someone else in mind

I'm being serious.  Please refrain from derailing this impotent thread

C'mon Mods, every time Rico posts it should default to teal. Make it so.

Shaka is ruining one of my entertainment options

Who is this "Duane" guy you reference.

[MU82]

First, the obvious. You HAVE to call Billy Donovan. In fact, I just put in a call to him, and he said he'd call me back as soon as he was done brunching with 9-9-9.

Second, I wish you had included a second poll about what we want to happen to Shaka after we banish him for ruining our lives. Coaching in the G-League would be too good for him, but tar and feathers seems a little too old school.

Let me give an early shout-out to our rich alums: Thanks for paying for Shaka's buyout and for the salary of Donovan, Self, Spoelstra, Coach K, Phil Jackson, Denny Crum's Ghost or whichever all-timer coach we'll sign.

I want no part of Billy Donovan. Shaka used to work for him so it would just be more of the same. I'm leaning Brad Stevens. If he doesn't want to come back to college, 82's ideas of Spoelstra or Self would be okay too.

[MU82]

Brad Stevens! Good one, brew. Sorry I missed him. Probably a few others.

Update: Billy and Herm were really full after their entrees, so they opted to split the flan for dessert.

Wojo is available.

[mugrad_89]

Why doesn't Wojo get his own option- he's way better than 'other'.

This belongs in the thread about what would cause me to lose my fandom.

We're way too focused on education. Having a team GPA of 3.4 shows we're wasting too much time in the books and not on the hardwood. Stay eligible, but anything more is just hurting the basketball product. Priorities.

[tower912]

Bravo.

Agree 100%.  Kids aren't here for an education but to win games for me
