Cottingham:
- Hasn't talked to students on campus yet.

Does he plan to?  I mean, I guess their opinions can be heard.  I've heard at least 50 opinions just from being on campus and going to classes.  The overwhelming sentiment from what I've heard is exactly opposite to what most here are saying.  Students seem to have less frustration with Crean's decision and more relief that he's gone.  They also want the General to take the helm.  I guess they go to the school and go to games, but 95% of students probably aren't going to give Cottingham anything he can work with.

Yeah, this would just be a huge waste of time.  My sister said the air on campus was thick with "Kevin O'Neills" today.  Christ.

NO SEARCH COMMITTEE.....I LOVE THIS PART

So far so good, it puts responsibility on Cottingham, which is scary but appropriate and necessary.  Search committees are not good for this kind of stuff.

Search committee seemed to do a good job last time.  Even the guys that were identified as backups to Crean in case they couldn't get him have gone on to be decent coaches, albeit not necessarily the best character guys in the business.

Someone (reporter) asked Steve if he had spoken with students, not that he is really planning on it.
But I like to throw handfuls...

Bill Cords is enough of a search committee for Cottingham.  As long as he's helping with the search, i'm confident we'll get someone good.  Also, most students on campus really don't know much about who they want or who would be an option.  KO is probably getting tossed around cuz he used to coach here and his name has been in the sporting news.  I'd really like to see Xavier's coach, possibly Butler's, or Steve Levin.

The General would be nice though  ;D

LOL YES! I must have heard his name a half dozen times today while walking around campus!

I think it depends what students you happen to be around.
What I've mainly heard around campus is students being pissed at him for a reaction and Sean Miller for a replacement.

Thanks, Titan. Good work right there. Were you a journalism major?

While there is no committee, Cott won't be working alone on this, of course. See Tranghese story on JSonline.com. Cords had lots of help landing TC. MU is not without resources.

This is gonna be fun. It's already a lot more interesting than wondering who might win the Final Four next weekend.

TT is straight up engineering! journalism students cant right that!  :D

Message board has a spell check button.


Just for engineers!!!! :)

But, he spelled "right" correctly. 

Guess we need a grammar check button now - oh boy.

What's with JS Online?  They had Crean's press conference audio and video up all day, but they can't get MU press conference up.  Must be some kind of conspiracy.

rocky_warrior

For those that were actually working and missed the press conference, I'm gonna' pin and lock this topic.

Not that I don't think it should get discussed - I just want this topic to stay as concise as possible.
