Soderball Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 17 hours ago, SLUMS81 said: TF generated legitimate buzz when he was announced. He brought big time coaching experience, media skills, etc. In other words, a similar package to several nominees on the growing list of coaching possibilities posted so far. Ford also had 1 tournament win in how many years. Mack and Weber are... a little better. Noone else on that retread list interests me.

laker119 Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 1 minute ago, Soderball said: If a coach "bolts" that means he was successful -- what is this attitude? VCU has had "bolt"ing coaches forever and they are way more successful than us. You don't think Ford would leap and sprint at the opportunity for a P5+1 job? Lol. Ford is here because NOONE WANTS HIM. See Utah State this year for more evidence that success can be sustained even if coaches leave. Especially in the portal/NIL environment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially in the portal/NIL environment I'd argue it's actually an avenue for increased success -- since coaches come WITH PLAYERS now. I think it's GOOD to rotate coaches every few years. 8 years is a lifetime in college basketball and Ford is just spinning the wheels, cashing our checks, and making excuses. You get the idea that Ford fans/defenders are the kind of people that call in to televangelists and infomercials. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slu72 Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 Hell yes Travis would bolt for a P6 job in a NY minute. But the only thing now for him is a bolt to a broadcast job or some low mid major opening. Soderball likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His daughter and her family family live in Kirkwood. I think his wife is from the Milwaukee area just like Bruce.

It was the only thing that made sense. That or he is just a massive fan of Straub's chicken salad. TheChosenOne likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never knew I needed to keep my eyes peeled for Bruce. Perhaps if he strikes up a convo with the checkout people that will be enough to notice, that voice doesn't hide.

Straubs is my most expensive bad habit and will likely lead to us not being able to afford sending our kids to college. Impossible to leave without spending at least $75, even during times I walk up just to get a pack of flour tortillas (which are $50). So much good stuff, I want to consume it all.

TheA_Bomb Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 Bucky McMillan has Samford just outside the top 25. Won the conference regular season and tournament last season. 40 yo dude. I'm just a kid looking at the JC Penny Christmas catalog at this point hoping Santa comes through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brianstl Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 A name that hasn't been brought up, but will probably be a serious candidate for the job barring a PAC 12 conference tournament championship is Andy Enfield. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
