majerus mojo Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 lol the comments in that twitter all seem to think Valpo is better school and in a better conference then SLU Aggressively favoriting so I can be diabolical with some quotes next week after he signs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeSmetBilliken Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Of those 3, for me it's: 1) Drew Sizeable gap 2) Ford Larger Gap 3) Dooley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slufan13 Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Can someone share the appeal of Dooley to me just in case? All I see is someone who was mediocre at East Carolina, has led his team to a worse record every year at a school coming off a sweet 16 with a campus on the beach, and who has a reputation of having very intense and demanding practices (something players complained about with Crews) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoosierPal Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 I find it amazing and somewhat sad that several posters on this board are bashing someone they know nothing about. Do the names Cole Aldrich and Mario Chambers mean anything to you? Do you know who recruited these players? I would think a coach who has demonstrated he can land top level talent should be not be dismissed as a poor coaching candidate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dwayne's_World Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Iit would be so typical for plan A and plan B to fall through, effectively forcing us to settle for Joe Dooley. This program has had enough luck already, might as well keep the train rolling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure that Bill Self and Kansas' basketball tradition had nothing to do with those players signing with KU. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiseAndGrind Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Of those 3, for me it's: 1) Drew Sizeable gap 2) Ford Larger Gap 3) Dooley Only one person on that list is even remotely acceptable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waldo027 Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Would be fine with Dooley. Please God not Travis Ford. 1 tourney win in 8 seasons at OK State, a pretty good program. Not sure what he did at UMass to get that job to begin with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schasz Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Let's stop the name calling and attacking. Everyone should be able to ask questions without being personally attacked. Also, my understanding is that the administration and its boosters have the requisite financial and resource commitment to cover the head coach salary figures that are being suggested, as well as the assistants and other staff. College basketball is now part of a greater strategic plan to raise the visibility and profile of the university. Last week I attended a Cards game in Jupiter and SLU had a sponsored event. I met a SLU Representative who assured me that money would not be a problem in the HC search. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianstl Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 I would rather roll the dice with TJ Otzelberger than go with Ford or Dooley. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bizziken Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 It seems foolish to think that we are only considering 1 candidate, but good grief, Dooley and an ex-UMass guy as backup plans? Really?! There are probably a dozen or so guys I can think of that I'd take over those two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billboy1 Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 This program needs to rise with a great hire. The last two years has dropped the program below mediocrity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Westy03 Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Although I'd take Goodmsn with lots of salt. He was the one who had the Stallings stuff earlier in the week. Dooley was on campus for an interview yesterday. If Drew falls through he will be considered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bay Area Billiken Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Mizzou idiots Yesterday, in a segment on Frank Cusumano's show, on 920cbssports, his guest was STL P-D's Mizzou beatwriter Dave Matter, with it noted that new Mizzou AD Rhoades shopped around the Mizzou Basketball job before bringing back Kim Anderson (its D-2 Coach) for another year, and found no interest, no takers. Their program is in the deep abyss in COMO, a veritable dumpster fire, and they know it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoosierBilliken Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Noted in the Dave Matter segment on Frank Cusumano's show yesterday was Mizzou's AD shopping its Hoops job and finding no interest before KA was retained for another year. Their program is in the deep abyss in COMO, a veritable dumpster fire, and they know it. Why do I love seeing Mizzou fans suffer? They have nothing to look forward to.

slufan13 Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Hopefully Dooley gets a nice raise from FGCU out of this and we end up with Drew. I'd like to know that FGCU is at least fighting to keep him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
