And I need CC on when Rapheal Davis is the analyst... There are very few decent analyst anymore. There were a couple last night that couldn't even get the names right to the correct player during the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before @Stlboiler23 got all bunged up, I was gonna say I didn't think Dane Fife was particularly good when I watched him do the MSU game...He had some good things to say (and you could understand him ) but he hates "dead air time." Talked waaay too much...Brian Butch too...He was actually pretty good last year I thought, but this year he had motor mouth...maybe it was because he was doing a Wisconsin game Hummel and Bardo are BTN's 2 best if they aren't doing Purdue or Illinois games respectively 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe he's just nervous, but it's OK not to like an alum in a job. None of us like Dan Dakich. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just having a little fun at our rivals expense by just counting downwards. In theory, I could have said 'tied for 11th' and not been wrong. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How in the world did he become Illinois and Kansas st coach? He's so bad. The Illini AD was feeling gun shy after both Kruger and Self left, so he hired somebody who would stick around. 🙄 And KSU? No idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really good basketball here by both teams. .06 to go and FLA leads 96-95 Edit: FAU wins. This felt like a March game. Congrats to Dusty May and team. They will be in the hunt come March 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobSaccamanno Posted December 24, 2023 Report Share Posted December 24, 2023 Dusty May = the next Brad Stevens. Hopefully he doesn’t get fully away the same way. Ideally he moves to a stepping stone job where we can still get him. Although it’s scary, somebody like Michigan could jump on him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woody's probably good for another 5-7 at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he does get hired elsewhere, just sell him on being IU's Roy Williams. That said, I want to see a few more seasons of sustained success before anointing him as the next Brad Stevens. He had a great season and NCAA run last year and his team looks good so far this year but can he sustain it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he wants to stay in FL, Miami and FL St will likely have retirements well before then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Understand what you’re saying, but I also don’t think there’s anybody who has ever coached that could take a school the level of Florida Atlantic on deep tournament runs and 35 win seasons every year. But certainly would love to see him sustain a reasonable level of success. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't have to be that type of sustained success but at least at the top of their league instead of middle of the pack. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
