i am not sure the road to 26 is getting rid of the guy that got you to 22 and starting over with an unknown, do you bring in a big name retread with baggage or the up and comer who leaves for greener pastures after some success? say a kim english who is looking for the big time -

great ambassador for the school, no ugly scandals, i believe he has incrementally improved the overall program, of course i want to win more games. the previous coach won games but left nothing, travis the last five years is winning at nearly 70%. mark few didnt build gonzaga he improved on what someone else started and that took many years to build. i would rather a decent human being be the coach than a scandal plagued ****** that gets the school on probation at the expense of some short term success. -

i can only answer to ignore bbf, easy to do. are you one of those who say ford has accomplished nothing? then he is a failure in your eyes -
from limited viewing and comments from rammer among others, momo might be that stretch 4-5 and definitely vice is a candidate for that role

i couldnt tell all the criteria a p6 conference is looking, but it is more than just the mens basketball record, market share other sports facilities etc. i personally dont define top third of the conference a definition of mediocre as some do, maybe the big east does, our facilities and market share are not mediocre, if a new coach is on the way i cant of a worse way to handle it that is whats happening now -

to determine the winner of the conference, there is a regular season champion and a conference tournament champion, the tournament seeding is determined from the regular season standings and sometimes tie breakers are necessary, vcu got to hang two banners a-10 champion and a-10 tournament champion -

We were seede 4th for they tournament, in conference play we tied for second. Wikipedia lists a second place finish, so someone somewhere agrees -
I was never implying that posters intended physical harm but their take on his coaching is way past not happy
-
Thanks for clarifying, interesting take on those words
-
would you agree that some are way past "not happy"? what is between not happy and intense dislike?
-
lets be honest cheeseman, some say intense dislike others say hate. there is some very very negative opinions way beyond "not happy". this may turn into an epic cluster****

there are many who may not hate the man, but they certainly hate him as coach or at least they post such on message boards, if the threads are read it is very difficult to come to a different conclusion -
it seems a fair bit of the recruiting budget is being spent by the soon to be ex coach. doesnt seem to be a good use of resources, would think you would want the next guy to have the money to spend

Wait is all we can do,

though the decision might be weighted towards mens basketball, many other factors involved
