ThePaulieWalnuts Posted March 6, 2018 Report Share Posted March 6, 2018 Thought Andy Kennedy did a great job considering Ole Miss isn’t a very good job to begin with. I’d be shocked if Tubby Smith is back in Memphis but stranger things have happened. Mark Fox is a good coach imo but I don’t see him being at Georgia next season. Tom Crean is going to have some solid options. I could see him doing well at Georgia, Memphis or Charlotte. I’d like to see if UConn pulls the trigger and if they do, who would get that job.

Yeah. Crean didn't even do a good job of recruiting Indiana, when he coached IU. At least, I didn't think he did. Just look at the number of kids from Indiana he left for Archie .

I heard on the radio today that if UConn fires Kevin Ollie they will owe him 12 million. That's pretty steep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Penny Hardaway is being mentioned as a possibility at Memphis, he is currently a high school coach and just happens to have the #1 rated junior in the country on his high school team.

If Crean is the competitor I think he is. Mix that in with how things went down with AD....he will most certainly spend some time here. Book it.

BobSaccamanno Posted March 7, 2018 Report Share Posted March 7, 2018 Speaking of Crean's recruiting and the Georgia job.... Do you remember that awful spring where we were scrambling to find a big? One of the guys we got on early was Yante Maten from Bloomfield Hills, Michigan. He was a late bloomer but played really well his senior year of high school. HSN was on him and he was going to be the best option we could get. We started to get nervous, as Izzo got interested too. In the end, we couldn't get him. But, instead of Michigan State, he went with Georgia, who I believe had recruited him the longest. Well, he turned out to be a heck of a player. He averaged 19 and 9. If my memory is correct, that is the year we ended up with Priller and April. Crean's logic in projecting Maten was really good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeking6 Posted March 8, 2018 Report Share Posted March 8, 2018 Lot of national and some local (Indy) folks already saying how good Crean would work at Pitt. Maybe it's just me but A) I think he could do much better job wise and B) If I were him head South. Choose one of the SEC openings. Pretty fertile recruiting. Sell the weather and no matter what....the pressure won't be as big because of football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
