Has done incredibly well at MTSU, especially the past few seasons. Four C-USA championships in the last five years, two NCAA tournament appearances and knocked off 2 seed Michigan State last year. His team is currently 27-4 with a 17-1 conference record. He was also an assistant at LSU under Brady from 97-02.


Make it happen Joe

Sure there are better guys out there, but you really think Alleva can pull it off? I sure as hell don't think so

Brady as an assistant?

Please god no. He's a Brady assistant and his record during his only stint as a power 5 coach is 16-42. Some guys are mid major coaches who can't do it at the higher levels he's one of them.

He's 27-4 with a 17-1 conference record.

And he would be a perfectly creditable hire.

But he's one of a whole host of mid-major coaches who would be creditable hires, all of whom are champions of their leagues or are at least in 2nd.

Will Wade at VCU (2nd in the A-10)
Steve Forbes at East Tennessee State
Eric Musselman at Nevada
King Rice at Monmouth
Paul Weir at New Mexico State (he's in 2nd in the WAC)
Kevin Keatts at UNC-Wilmington
Pat Kelsey at Winthrop
Dan Muller at Illinois State (2nd in the MVC)
Scott Cross at UT-Arlington

Any one of those guys would have a resume giving him a fighting chance of coming in here and building a program. I'd argue most of them, if not all, would offer more evidence of sustained success prior to coming to LSU of any coach we've ever hired.

I liked McCall earlier in the season, but he really shat the bed down the stretch.

@ FUR L60-56
@ WOF W73-65
@ VMI W74-68
vs ETSU L65-51
@ SAM L72-68
vs MER L64-54
@ CIT L85-76
vs WOF L79-67

Nope.

You're talking about his head coaching experience from the 90s? It's obvious he's gotten his shite figured out now.

I would love to have Musselman back here as a HC. Just don't see it happening though.

It's obvious? He's won 20 games 7 times in 19 seasons! And he's been at mid majors all but 2 of them. Noway has this guy won enough to prove he's a winner at the power 5 level. For a lifetime mid major coach that's not a very good resume and then there's his history at the power 5 level which is horrible. Johnny Jones has a better resume.

At a BB school in a BB Conference in a BB crazy state...LSU would be a step down.

Steve Forbes at East Tennessee State

interesting...would probably take if offered, knows the area

quote:

Eric Musselman at Nevada

Has got it going in Reno...probably not


quote:

Kevin Keatts at UNC-Wilmington
Pat Kelsey at Winthrop

likely candidates for NCST job

quote:

Paul Weir at New Mexico State (he's in 2nd in the WAC)

another intriguing possibility, 37 and knows the area

quote:

Scott Cross at UT-Arlington

gun shy about Sun Belt schools


quote:

Dan Muller at Illinois State (2nd in the MVC)

At his alma mater

King Rice at Monmouth

Also probably in the NCST hunt. ACC guy

No to anyone with any ties to previous LSU head basketball coaches.
