First Four Out

Out is out. How is that any different from McMahon in his four years here? We demand a winner, now

they're not out yet dummy. just projected out, and the context that they had 100% roster turnover is obviously a key factor to consider. It's extremely impressive what he's done in my opinion.

Go look up that UC San Diego team that he built last year. They were a really fun team to watch.

Which is stupid because if you don't hire Wade this year, what changes make you think you'll hire him next year? All of the same onerous expenses (ostensibly) keeping you from hiring him this year will still be there. Only now, the market for everything (coaches, players, etc) will have inflated again.

If Wade is your first choice then go get him NOW. If you don't want to pay the amount to do that, then hire someone else. Kicking this useless can down the road another season accomplishes nothing but further reducing your customer base.


I completely agree. I'm telling what I think is going to happen. I don't understand how you keep McMahon in any scenario. If Wade is your target, you make a run at him and move on if you can't get him. Right now, LSU and Syracuse are the biggest fish in the hiring pond (and we may end up being the only SEC team in the pond).

There's degrees of "out". McMahon's "out" has been as close as Dale Brown has been the last four years. McMillian didn't make the tourney last year at Samford.

Whoever the coach ends up being, The PG for Mcneese should be a high priority for us. His numbers as a freshman are unreal.Best pg I’ve seen at Mcneese in a loooong time

I still think tGeneral is a possible get. Too much smoke to for too long to be no fire.

But yeah, that might not work out. I think we could pull someone like:

- Kelsey at Louisville
- McCasland at TT
- Beard at OM (meh. would be fun but not my first choice.)

I would love to get one of these guys, but I don't think we can pull them:

- Drew at Baylor
- Tang at K State
- Otz at Iowa St
- Williams at ATM


ETA: I really just don't want to suck anymore. Just for basketball to be watchable again would be fantastic. But this hire needs to be a home run for the program's sake. Hope Verge nails it.

No chance at any of those but Tang, who got fired last month.

Schertz is my top guy.

Next would be Eric Olen, then Jerrod Calhoun.

CMM will remain the HC until they have a big name replacement.....a lateral move here is not a good idea.

Brian Kelly might be the only option worse than retaining McMahon. Anybody different brings a glimmer of hope. McMahon is an energy vampire to the program in addition to all the losing.
