This guy is one of my favorite coaches.  Pretty wild to fire a guy who finished 2nd in the ACC last year and has an 11-9 record this season while being middle of the pack with plenty of time to improve.  I always fondly remember his teams playing their asses off with very physical basketball.

Louisville is a trash school that faked their way into the ACC.

Well, when will some poster tell us about knowing the guy who is installing cable at his house in Lincoln?

Mark Turgeon's departure from Maryland seemed to have kicked off the coaching carousel.

I meant Xavier so we're in agreement.

How about, since we can't tank for draft ping pong balls (take note FH), in the interest of fairness, we try a different game of chance. Put all the B1G coaches names on a wheel of fortune at the start of media weekend in Chicago, each AD gives it a spin and gets to take that coach off the wheel for the season. That will let it be a true coaching challenge.

Houberg fired yet?

$$$$ says "no". If I ever need a lawyer, I know who to call.

Mackwas suspended for 6 games this season and fined 220k by the university because of a scandal where the ncaa has charged Mack with a level 1 infraction and 2 level 2 infractions and Louisville with 6 level 2 infractions from an incident where after uhe fired an assistant coach he then recorded the assistant coach trying tried to get Mack to pay him to keep quiet about the violations they had committed. The fired assistant coach pled guilty to extortion got a year of probation and a $10,000 fine. Mack is also likely to be suspended by the ncaa for next season if he coaches. 

 

Louisville is still on probation for the recruitment of Brian Bowen II. A level 1 violation and 3 level 2 violations. under Pitino. They forfieted several years of winning seasons including a national championship and are waiting for punishments related to the new York southern district corruption case at least 3 level 2 infractions and allegations of misconduct and recruiting violations with Adidas. 

 

There is real serious potential that Louisville is going to get the basketball equivalent of the death penalty- a 4 year postseason ban. They are on probation, have at least one and as many as 3 level 1 infractions and at least a dozen level 2 infractions pending.

 

They didn't want to do it but Louisville had no choice but to fire him.

Mack was someone I wanted before Fred but never thought we'd get him cause of money.  Who knew we'd get Fred and make him a top 10 paid coach.  Sampson and Turgeon was on my list too.  Sampson is paid nicely I believe.  If a change is made Im sure it will be back to the mid major coach for $ reasons which makes itna hard sell.  Would the univ shell out the buyout plus pay big to find a power 5 coach?

Sampson is older than dirt now though (66 years old).  He's retiring at UH.  Turgeon is ten years younger, but Maryland may have damaged him irreparably.

66 isnt that old but im talking 3 years ago.  People on here were worried about Sampson with his very minor NCAA issues.

Oof do you really trust that going that route is any better than the midmajor route? I was CERTAIN Hoiberg was our can't miss unicorn. I trust nothing about why which coach would/should be successful here anymore. Its a crap shoot. And if you believe that then I'd rather gamble on midmajor on the cheap then shell out for the power five.

Either that or an assitant somewhere

Can we get Miles back?  He at least won sometimes and has a great personality and got butts in the seats.

I know this touches a nerve with people, but i'll say it anyways. If we move on from Fred, I hope they bring in a black head coach. No one has got it done to date, let's give it another go and we might as well break the color barrier for major sports coaches at Nebraska while we're at it. Armon's brother has been impressive as hell, maybe he would put a good word in.

Man, that is not a bad idea.  I like that one.

If we do end up replacing Fred you need to get a guy like Miles who can build a program so probably not an 'up and coming' assistant type. That's what Osborne saw in Miles when he hired him and maybe Trev is tasked will see the same thing.

Please no.  Get someone who can recruit, develop, and be a consistant winner that doesnt finish in the bottom 4 almost every year in the conference.

HIs son has been hurt this year and is likely going pro.
