How would firing Trent affect Morgan?

Probably wouldn't.

With the way Trent recruits I assume Morgan is an LSU guy for the sake of being an LSU guy and Trent has little to do with that.

if we are being completely insane my pick would obviously be Stevens. I'd almost love Alleva to throw out a 3 million dollar offer to see if he'd turn it down.

I don't honestly think he'd take it but I want us to make him say no. frick settling again. I think we settled with Trent and I think we settled with Mainieri (whether anyone thinks he's great or not he wasn't top of the list I don't think). Offer Stevens UK, KU money and see what happens. All he can say is no.

TJ had a pretty solid resume, the only other names attached were Grant and Ford. I can't say we really screwed the pooch

15 years ago, when Joe Dean dropped the ball and hired John Brady instead, this would've been the correct answer.

Now? Not so much.

I thought I seen where Floyd had some pretty good recruits committed to UTEP. He has to be an upgrade.

I'm probably wrong about this, but I always heard that Floyd wouldn't take the LSU job out of respect to Brady. The two are apparently very good friends ? That may just be that he didn't want to be the guy who immediately replaces Brady.

When we hired TJ he was better then anyone I thought we were going to get. No way that hire was "screwing the pooch". I guess I am in the minority when I say I think we will be pretty good next year

I can't agree with that. Best case scenario is maybe a first round appearance in the NCAAs. I just don't see a very high ceiling with this group under Trent.

like someone said earlier, TJ seems like a fundamental coach but under him our team has been consistently basketball stupid and his offense is beyond putrid.
