Oh man, this is the answer, and he brings Cofie home.
Wake Forrest
How do we go a whole coaching era of 16 years without ever being able to have a lead guard like Hepburn ā¦. seriously why canāt we recruit and sign lead guards with wiggle who can get downhill and get past their man at Will?
And finish plays - scoring 16 points per game?
This all got me thinking where the assistants would go if not here next year. The sneaky hot commodity would be Vandross. Professional northeast recruiter. Iāve heard storiesā¦that guy knows everybody.
@DFresh11 told me one, probably doesnāt remember. The pool cleaner haha
Oh man I dont remember. Killing me thinking now
Thinks thereās a chance any of them hang around if Ron leaves? Assuming for the purposes of the exercise that the new coach will want to retain them.
I would think Williford and Vandross would be open to staying in the right situation. Vandross probably only as a package with J Willy.
Maybe the young guys, Wilkins or Guy. I donāt know. Theyād have the most options.
Yes but gets tricky for Zay and Chase, I think. Kyle Guy you gotta think everyone would love on staff
I agree with these random strangers on the discord but unfortunately there is no stud pg on the roster he can bring with him here so not sure If I need to make an exception or not
Could get Berke the Turk though.
More risk involved but just sign a PG in free agency instead of signing one wired for us. Weāre going to have to be active in the market anyway.
If weāre trying to hire a coach for the next 15 years, not sure we should care much at all about whether they will bring with them a specific player or two from their former program who will be here for one or two years. Definitely a nice bonus but seems like a blip in the bigger picture.
Simply need to hire someone that can successfully land guards with wiggle and athletic front court dudes who can catch and finish.
Any new HC worth his salt will want his own people on his staff. No one on the current staff stays unless previously connected with the new hire. I really hope Carlisle is the savior to pull us out of this mess and provide a bridge to our future.
The next coach wont be here for 15 years
Hoiberg would be an unbelievable hire. I think he would kill it here. Really has built up Nebraska to a nice level. On pace for their second straight 23+ win season and another NCAAT berth.
Also if the next coach doesnt have a bonafide pg they wont last 3 years before getting canned
Have to think Hoiberg is a Midwest guy.
ā¦. Why? I mean, not saying youāre wrong, but why the certainty? Arenāt we trying to make a long-term hire of a guy to build a program?
Also, canāt the new guy just recruit a great PG or land one in the portal? Wonāt they need to do that throughout their tenure to be successful?
USC or UCLA?
