Coach K's Next Job - Page 2

CPP Hall of Fame · 04-07-09, 12:49 AM

what happened over to Mckay at Liberty... Curry transfered..

seattle, portland state, georgia southern and liberty looks good for Coach K. Hampton is closed, they are going witht the interim asst coach for 09-10 season.

jayandbutton · 04-07-09, 04:30 AM

i think coach would be most interested in that portland job...big city, good for kids, in a league where he can win, though i think he might jump for seattle too. doubt he's in the mix for a region where he's not known. recruiting ability has to enter in here and not just coaching ability.

even though larry is gone i like next year's team a lot. but coach damien says we have only signed one kid, herold, and not two as you report. what is status of the other big? am also told we are hot on the heels of a stud point to back up nasser.

our mustang friends have no clue what doing up there. sounds like another 7-21 campaign upcoming for a program in total disarray, led by a guy all mouth who is promising a Final Four appearance. sounds like AC might be thinking about yet another contract buyout soon....

jayandbutton · 04-07-09, 05:39 AM

cameron dollar over at udub is in the mix for both the seattle and portland jobs and he was a finalist for the beach job a couple years back. i honestly think the AD of the redhawks will want a WCC guy, or someone with WCC connections since that school longs to join that conference. sure wish steve wachs were still doing great things over at LMU now and a candidate. the viking job looks a bit more promising for coach k. and a much more established and solid program. big sky champs, been to the big dance twice recently, in a nice town...while not quite as perfect as the blown opportunity at SLO it's the best on the current board in terms of fit. too bad the wolfback job didn't go to a current HC as that might have created yet another ripple down.

CPP Hall of Fame · 04-07-09, 11:22 PM

portland state is a really good fit for coach k. i imagine that job will get a lot of looks from solid D2 coaches and D1 assistants. Seattle U might go with a big time asst coach from the Zags... Cameron Dollar couldnt even get the Sac State job he applied for last year. Coach K doesnt have to worry about that guy.

Portland state is probably the last realistic chance this year for coach k making a move depending who seattle U hires. Liberty is still open too, but they might give the asst coach a legitimate shot... who knows what these AD are thinking? Heck, we saw what the Conehead did over at SLO!!

jayandbutton · 04-08-09, 12:17 AM

hall,
it blows my mind how joe callero is a better master of spin than slick willie clinton. here's a guy with a losing record both at the DIII AND DII levels of coaching and somehow he has made himself into some kind of master rebuilder...you know, somebody who takes a disaster program and cleans up the mess.

only one problem. most programs are not into janitorial service but winning championships. this dude callero has done nothing close to that. only went to one dance in a decade, won one game and was done.

he must have sold AC some kind of sales pitch. i don't see the mustangs any better next year, just another campaign at or near the big west basement. joe knows, though...he's talking again, and this time he says his new club is in the mix for the Final Four.

man, what is this maniac smokin'? unlike bill, he's GOTTA be inhaling!!! good thing they don't play the broncos. it would be a blowout.

CPP Hall of Fame · 04-10-09, 12:51 AM

Russ Prenell takes over at Grand Canyon!! this must be a down year to make a coaching move. that is one of the worse jobs on this side of the coast.. CPP has to rank up there in that category depending on which angle you look at it from...

jayandbutton · 04-10-09, 06:22 AM

wow, i am speechless. all he did was take a team that wasn't even supposed to dance at all into the sweet sixteen as a part time hire. and he allegedly turned down several DI offers, still unnamed?

i wonder. the guess here is that he rebuked some DI bites but why? musta been something personal to keem him in state.

unless it was that one roadie they make each year to the islands since they now play in the pac west.

you surely remember that junior high school bandbox gym of theirs...what was it, six rows of bleachers deep, poor lighting with shadows on each basket, too hot on warm days since the ventilation system was bad, and locker rooms better suited as a homeless shelter???? and not much on the academic side either to recruit for.....ugh.

CPP Hall of Fame · 04-17-09, 12:03 AM

portland state gone, g. southern gone, memphis gone, seattle u looks like they will go with cameron dollar..

texas pan am, app state and seattle u the only 3 jobs still open..

looks like coach k will remain bronco! no matter what type of year he has, he is gone! time to move on to a bigger program, better budget and a school that values athletics..

jayandbutton · 04-17-09, 12:08 AM

the seattle job went to dollar, hall. let's look forward to another tourney run now. we all agree that the bronco athletic department is pretty broken, but lorena remains a bright star on a dull tree.

CPP Hall of Fame · 04-17-09, 12:31 AM

the athletic dept is beyond broken, i hope you stand corrected by me saying the one bright star is coach kamansky. without that guy, the dept is nothing. while not taking anything away from lorena, but coach k has brought the program into a national spotlight. im sure they will have recruits knocking at the door, but will they have the resources on a shoestring budget to bring them in. there is a bunch of goofs in that athletic dept including your favorite guy jayandb, the sid...

jayandbutton · 04-19-09, 02:28 PM

broncos not only stand to lose kamansky soon but also rosie wegrich who has had the only other consistent winner within the entire program. if rosie retires and GK moves on the department would need to make huge leaps forward to compensate.

mens soccer never dances, the womens team now in a funk after being a consistent tourney team. ditto mens and womens tennis, now both teams are down. baseball has been a dog program for more than fifteen years after winning multiple national titles yet they make no moves to change the mediocrity. womens basketball merely average after being the dominant power in DII, leaving only TF and CC with any kind of recent uptick save greg and rosie's achievements.

and please don't get me started again about the worst SID west of the rhine river. that one is beyond shameful.

lakdod · 03-27-10, 07:10 PM

i hate to bring this subject up after winning the national championship, but do you guys think coach k is gone. I Dont think he will be gone because of the lack of west coast job, but same time thier a jobs that coach k might take if offer.

The UC Irvine job is open and they have not hired anybody yet. heard they dont have alot of money for the job which mean coach k might be a ideal candidate. it is also a local school where he wont need to move his family. all logistic in my book make it a perfect fit for think, but we will see if UCI make the same mistake as Cal poly Slo.

the other west coast job open UTEP and Oregon. you know he is not going to oregon and utep just made the tourny this year and wants a bigger name. it looks like coach k going to irvine or we have him another year.

jayandbutton · 03-27-10, 07:39 PM

not going anywhere.
irvine has the view of hiring a DI assistant.
SLO blew it.
go over to the mustang chat board and you will see they mentioned it today.
callero went 11-20. great job, joe.
watch how hard it will be to get exhibition games with DIs next year.
nobody wants a piece of the broncos.

lakdod · 03-27-10, 07:56 PM

it looks like that the case but i see some people are mentioning coach k as a good candidate for different jobs out west. i dont know how long we will have coach k because i think he is starting to become a hot commodity.

jayandbutton · 03-27-10, 08:01 PM

yeah, but we've been talking like that since 2003.
bruce pearl is one of the very few to break out of the d2 world...and look where he is now.
you have those huge egos in d1. and coach k. has job security too.
it's a shark's pool in d1 and few survive.
he'll go but only for the perfect deal.
SLO would have been. irvine might be. no other real options.

CPP Hall of Fame · 04-01-10, 07:31 AM

Jay, you are right. Coach K would be a good fit or UC Irvine and wouldve been a good fit for SLO, but these AD's have no clue when it comes to hiring decisions. Outside Pomona hes not a big name and hes not flashy. Most AD's get caught up in making a big splash when it comes to hiring or bringing someone on board with D1 coaching experience. Still dont rule anything out.

Coach K would also make a good fit at an underachieving Long Beach State Program. Monson has done nothing but remain mediocre in a bad big west conference. He should have won the BW easy this year. He also wouldve made a good fit at Dartmouth.

Word on the street is the concordia coach is a top candidate for the UCI job. Still dont rule coach K out yet on landing a D1 gig. Its still early.

When the Steve Lavins, Tim Welsh's and Reggie Theus' of the world get hired for D1 coaching gigs absolutely explains it all.

jayandbutton · 04-01-10, 08:02 AM

where ya been, bru?
these boards have missed you.
and the x-man has been under control too without your "guidance."
didn't even see ya at the rally.

check out the mustang sports chat board. billy bronco returns!

coach k is not leaving. as you say irvine is too stupid to hire him, and he's too smart to jump to the big worst conference. now if something popped at USD or if and when UCSD were to move up.....hmmm.

and who will even want a piece of us OOC next fall?

i think the key to next year is a steady point. dahir was perfect.

lakdod · 04-01-10, 11:10 AM

jay, i agree with one thing if ucsd move up to div I and that job is open coach k will jump all over it. He would be going back to his ala malter. think the same if any wcc job opens up.

I think next year we will go with ruthledge as our point with booker spliting time bring the ball up which he did some this year. think one of the recruits bringing in is a point guard but dont know for sure . we need to find another pg prefer another jc one.

jayandbutton · 04-01-10, 11:23 AM

i would hope we could get another exhibition at a big venue like pauley again.
it would be a great way to kick off the season.

hey, how about UNLV at thomas and mack?

road trip!

lakdod · 04-01-10, 11:32 AM

if we get unlv i am so there lol. i doubt ucla will schedule us after the near losses they had to concordia and humboldt this year. i think we might be able to get into like a NIT or CBI pre season tournament if they get west coast team to participate. Like San Bernardino this a couple of year ago.

The team i want to see play this year is Azusa Pacific. Both teams went to the national champs game in each division. will be a good pre season showdown and will be well attended by both school.
