The threshold has been reached for me. I don't pay attention to much in college basketball outside my Huskers. And we could be hashing out why/what/who/how this thing went off the rails for a while. I now believe there is a chance Hoiberg is not the coach next year. I honestly would like to know who you all think of current coaches we have a chance to get? Who you'd like? Or Who would we actually end up with as our next coach? Just looking to discuss a different topic instead of our current situation. Maybe once we get a consensus of names Norm could do another poll 😀

The sheet of paper left in Bill Moos' desk drawer doesn't seem helpful

Call me in either 2 years or when Alberts and Hoiberg restructure the contract. In the meantime, it's a fruitless exercise that'll drive you crazier.

Seemed just fine when Connie Yori took the job at Nebraska.

Nah. Gives me hope in this hopeless situation. Like I said I know little outside of the Huskers in college basketball.

 

I have started my Google search on Craig Smith because I see his name on here from time to time and obviously the past between us and him. 

 

Next I am going to Google "Mid Major College Basketball Coach buyouts" because I don't think "Hot Mid Major College Basketball Coach" is going to get me the query I want.

 

Then I'm going to do the same for assistant coaches. 

 

Finally I think the craziest thing is you believe this will be allowed to continue for 2 years if a contract renegotion doesn't materialize.

Craig Smith

😬 3.5M looks like a STEAL (at the time) after seeing this article

Nice little Q&A when he was hired by the Utes

Not saying he would. I'm just compling names and He's who I started with 🙂

 

To add it looks like after reading the 2nd article I posted I assume he may be cost prohibitive even if he wanted to come here and even if we wanted him.

So Smith is 1-10 in the Pac12 this year.  I guess he forgot how to coach too!

Okay I’ll play…

 

we will get somebody that we have never really heard of…

 

he will have half of the fan base excited and the other half mad…

 

he will win early on with the guys we have…

 

then will start to loose and we will back on here with new ideas about a coach…

 

hasn’t this happened like that last 5 coaches we have had?

Just came across a name I did not expect to see. Seeing him on a few lists of "Midmajor Coaches About to make a Big Jump" List basically naming 8 - 10 midmajor coaches about to jump to a Power5 conference. Anyhoo, how do we feel about Rick Pitino 😬?

 

Do you want the 15 second version?

Seing this name on a bunch of lists too. Believe he's been mentioned on here too.

 

DENNIS GATES

I mentioned Dennis Gates in another thread. If I were Trev and knew I was moving on, I’d already have Armon working on him.

Turgeon?

 

Anthony Grant?

 

 

So far I think I like this Grant gentleman the best out of the choices I have listed.

 

Makes 1.6M a year. 55 y.o. African American. Coached in P5. Got fired. Rose from the ashes. I like it.
