CBFan Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 Some of the posters on the board were really on about Archie leaving. I remember reading one post about the team coming back may not be as good as this years team and that it was a good time to leave. There is some good insight on this board, I hope Dayton can replace Archie with a good coach. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dayton's hire will be big, hopefully it is Kelsey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnbj14 Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 A couple people on the Dayton forum are tossing around Crean as a candidate FWIW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or they can hire Brian Gregory 2.0. I have less faith in Dayton than I did in VCU Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only an idiot would root for a weakened A10. Sucks when the two flag bearing schools in the conference get their coaches poached by BCS teams.

shempie Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 Anthony Grant will get a look. He played at UD on a team that went to the elite 8 I believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the post-campus protests era compounded by the fact that there has been limited success in basketball for years. They're reputation has suffered. When was the last time they had a decent coach? Name one decent coach that would want to come there. It will take a lot of money to get any decent coach with experience and he would be probably nearing retirement age, or they are going to find someone really young who is like, "I got nothing to lose." I think Jim Crews would be a nice fit there. A lot of great calls in this thread. This is one of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soderball Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 For the conference, Crean would be the best hire for UD. Crean can get them back in the tournament and uphold both Dayton's status as well as that of the conference. That would be a smart hire. Crean's detractors are absolutely nuts. The guy has a lot of tournaments under his belt. National championships are hard to win, I predict that in 5 years IU will can Archie for only reaching the elite eight twice and the sweet sixteen twice. Those people will NEVER be happy. They should hire Jim Crews. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeSmetBilliken Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 Archie Miller should say in his press conference that he knows Jim Crews. Will instantly endear him to the IU fans, because apparently people from Indiana like Crews. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slu72 Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 If this is all true and Kelsey takes the DU job, can't wait to see the reception he received from the UMass crowd when he returns to play the Minutemen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He actually likes Jim crews... Next thing you should do is quote glory days and act as if he speaks for all billiken fans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Over under on Martin winning more games his first year than Ford did his first year at SLU? At least Martin had a plus .500 conference record at his two P5 stops, unlike Ford at OSU. Despite that, I think Ford is a good coach and wish him well as he seems like a good guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cuonzo got paid hazard pay to come clean up the mess in columbia. He has a real limited track record of success. He's like a younger poor mans Lorenzo Romar. I'm sure he will be putting up recruiting conference championship banners in whatever that arena is called. Similar to all those preseason conference Titties Brian Gregory hung in Dayton. Cuonzo gets Mizzou back to mediocrity, where they've thrived their entire existence. And you'll be happy about it. Also, I believe you were looking for "odds that Martin wins..." not over/under, as that makes no sense in this case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a scary thought. Let's say they had hired Ford. The porters would still be going to MU, they get Corey Tate back and Goodwin, Gordon and thatch all flip to MU. That would have been real ugly.
