    Tom Davis Ques...

    If I remember correctly under Mr. Davis Stanford didnt suck as bad as it did before. Not much of a recommendation. Mr. Davis did have a good tournament record and some success at BC. Back then most fans wondered why Iowa hired a coach with that poor a record at Stanford and we were pessimistic that...

    If he's any good??

    If the guy is any good. This years team was pretty young, next year they will all be a year older and stronger and this years freshman will know what goes on in B10 basketball. New recruits will play some quality minutes. Learning a new system will set them back, up tempo though comes more...

    what are the odds?

    NCAA before they graduate? No redshirts? I'd say 50-50. Next year teaching new system the record will still be better than Licks. Lick taught dfense so that will carry over and help. The guys are all a year older and will have some more bodies capable of playing (probably no 1st, 2nd or 3rd team...

    The More and More You Look at Fran Mc....

    I heard that happpened to her somewhere but dont know any of the details. THAT would fire up the crowd and get them to quit sitting on their hands. A show of hawk passion far greater than we saw out of our ex-coach.

    Fran may be a better than I first thought

    He knows what coaching in a fishbowl is like. He was an assistant at Notre Dame for 10 yrs and thats a big fish bowl. So he wont come in ignorant like Raveling and Lick. He rebuilt 2 programs. Mid-majors yes but still that is 2 more than Lick rebuilt. He can coach and been to NCAA. Can do...

    I'll give him a chance but if he says "Siena way" then fire him on the spot.

    Fran may be a better than I first thought

    This is from the Siena site so it may be a little biased but overall I like what it is telling me. He started with a depleted team, recruited strong, exceeded expecations, finshed strong, at least once had the HIGHEST SCORING TEAM IN LEAGUE........ Player Bio: Fran McCaffery - SIENA OFFICIAL...

    UNI

    UNI doing great. This is the first time I can ever recall the announcers rooting for the same team I am. Did anyone notice when UNI hit the basket with a couple seconds left in the first half the play by play guy shouted - YES!!!

    It sounded like a pep talk that he has given before. Dont you think Forbes would have asked Pearl those exact questions?

    Coaching, recruiting and public relations

    KF is a great coach but I think his lack of "sparkle" with the media did hold him back and slow the success. The right new BB coach can succeed without a "presence" but the turn around will be quicker if he can look comfortable on camera which will carry over to recruiting visits and...

    Coaching, recruiting and public relations

    I was thinking about those TERRIBLE Big Ten ads where Lick looked like he was getting a colonoscopy, they couldnt have helped with recruiting. I dont think the recruiting ability or X-O's matter much if the guy resents the media or makes milk toast look viibrant. The new guy needs to know the...
