Wow. Not trying to be a racist but Here's some info on black head coaches in the NCAA. There has only been 3 to win National Championships...
quote:
College basketball has crowned a champion every year since 1939. Just three of those teams had Black head coaches: John Thompson (Georgetown, 1984), Nolan Richardson (Arkansas, 1994) and Tubby Smith (Kentucky, 1998)

You don't get credit for reading something on BBI or Scout, passing it off as your own thought, and then acting like you are somehow "in the know."

If this list is the final three, I'm turning my attention to the Arky football coaching search. At least it will be interesting.

I would hope that either Theus is chosen or other guys are added as candidates.

Theus makes no sense imo. I think we all know it will probably be JJ.
Theus makes the most sense. He brings national exposure. He played and coached at the n.b.a. level where these athletes want to play.
our problem has been recruiting. that guy has the most skins to get kids to look at and come to lsu.

I don't think that is by any means the complete list. Just three that were leaked. Amaker is the only surprise, since it was already known and reported that Jones and Theus would be candidates and get interviews. Whether those are courtesy interviews to pacify certain factions or not is up for debate.
It also ruffles no feathers to have those names leaked and doesn't risk pissing off the candidates. The bigger names, if there are any, would not want their names leaked.

This is embarassing.
How fricking hard is it to pull someone from a winning program, even if its the goddam towel boy????
can we at least look like we know what the frick we are doing and say we are intersted in a few accomplished coaches?

lets hope he would have that kind success. i'll be happy to lose him if he turns us around. kind of like saban, knew he wouldn't be here if he had success. however, once we got rolling we still are.
