Anyone see him at halftime of the play-in game? He speculated about the Iowa job and said that Brian Gregory, Fran McCaffery, and Tony Barbee all might be contacted. He noted Iowa was a good job but their facilities are not in order. I guess he doesn't know about the Carver renovation or the practice facility that will be built. Hence, he threw out 2 bad names (Gregory and McCaffrey) IMO. If either of those two are fired then Iowa is in trouble. Barbee is a good option but def not your 1, 2, or 3.

On a side note, he threw Alford's name out there with the Oregon job along with Mark Few.

Gregory is not a bad name at all. He's in my Top 5.

No one knows much yet. It's all speculation.

Tubby will take the Oregon job and leave it to Ben Jacobson.

Geez spank you better look at his conference record.

2 NCAA bids in seven years isn't good. Lick had a better resume. Plus his team was stacked this season and went 8-8 in conference. I think you keep Lick over Gregory.

If we've gone thru all this for Brian Gregory the U of I fired the wrong person

Gregory is alright...and I haven't had the pleasure of naming a son yet...but I just don't think Gregory carries the same clout as something like Mufasa.

Say it...Mufasa. Mufasa...Mufasa...Mufasa.

Now that's a great name!

Just 1 losing season, almost 20 wins seasons every year, asst coach under both Heathcote and Izzo. Done more at Dayton than any other coach has before. Team plays solid D and decent tempo.

He has asst coach experience, head coach experience, and knowledge of the game is superb.

I would take him well before Keno.

Stormin,

In the past 5 years, Gregory has 3 7th place finishes, an 11th and a 2nd. Alford was better than that and he got ran. If we hire Gregory, it is a mistake.

I admit I was more enamored with Gregory at midseason,before Dayton did a nosedive out of the tourny. I do not think he would lite a fire under the fanbase,but better than Lick....but I like Barbee,Forbes and Gillispie's recruiting chops better.
