Just like Elleshoe, deride others' thinking outside the box, yet not making a suggestion of his own. Well here's another suggestion, phuck you and the horse you came in on!!!!!!

Rick Barry coached in a pro league. His team WON the championship of the league.

I was looking at Wikipedia today at work to find a reasonable candidate that has had sustained mid major success, but wouldn't necessarily ask for the payday Smart or Stevens would. I also preferred that they coached in the south at some point, and are relatively young.
Marshall coached a Winthrop (in the south), took them to the tourney A LOT, and is now successful in the MVC, which is a good league. And he's 49. Perfect guy.

marshall's teams are fun to watch. i was kind of surprised he didn't end up at tennessee last season but they got a good one in cuonzo nonetheless. def. my number 1 choice. sean miller was my top guy last time but i think he was gonna hold out for that better offer like he got with arizona.

i remember my top 4 being miller, grant, ford, and bennett. 3 out of those 4 look pretty good IMO FWIW RBI

grant,
This would have been my choice.

I didn't mean to dog on your choice of Livingston by the way but I feel like we can do so much better than a guy just cutting his teeth in coaching

I've been talking with a friend of mine, we came up with a couple of dark horses who could be decent and good up and comers:
Rick Byrd (Belmont)
John Grose (U of Ohio)
Obviously they wouldn't be my top choice, but I feel like they could both be solid up and coming coaches for us.

I don't mind Rick Byrd. I admittedly don't know much about Grose.

Belmont is impressive.

Steve Fischer- SDSU
Lon Kruger- UNLV
Fran Dunphy- Temple
ETA: I really like the Avery Johnson suggestion. He would be a hit with all of the Nola talent we've missed on.

It's cool brah. Just frustrated right now with the current state of the program. TJ really coulda used a guy from La on his staff and he said thanks, but no thanks to RL. At this point I don't think that RL could possibly do any worse.
FTR I wanna be clear that I don't hate TJ. I believe him to be an upstanding guy. He runs a clean program. Both good things. BUT he can't recruit worth a damn, and he wouldn't know offensive BB if it grew out of his forehead and he had to stare at it in his mirror while he shaved every morning.

I didn't either, and his resume isn't long, but he's done a good job at Ohio in just 3 years. He's made the NCAA and beat Georgetown in year two. This year he's got them at 23-7, but they probably won't make the NCAA because they are behind Akron in the MAC.
Posted on 3/1/12 at 11:14 pm to shiftworker
I'd like RL as an assistant. Just not a head guy quite yet.
