OK, so technically they haven't hired his legal guardian.  But they have implied that they might.

Of course they implied it...they wanted him to sign!  Just like the 5 star cat they got the year before...Stans makes a lot of promises and is well connected.

Rick?

 

Yeah...Probably.  Dude can recruit but I think he is a bit of a good ole boy...not sure he is all that into the midwest.

if he can coach at WKU he can coach at NU lol I just wanna see us recruit to that level. Heck I would imagine with our facilities etc he will get us to at minimum be competent and consistent at going to the tourney...makes it easier for the next coach to recruit etc.

Maybe, Osbourne took over a year after they had won back to back championships & Miles took over when the program was just short of a dumpster fire.

 

Facilities are important, but they are not a panacea.  Cameron Indoor & Allen Fieldhouse are dumps but Duke & Kansas get great players every year because they are dumps with tradition.  The second & third tier of players like shiny new facilities, but the top tier likes tradition more so they go to Duke, Kansas, Kentucky, UNC, etc.

 

Typing the bold should be a suspension if not permanent loss of keyboard.

Why are people acting like Miles wasn't almost canned last year?  And the year before?

 

The dude has 9 lives right now...that is awesome for him.  But even with a great season and making the dance it isn't like he all of a sudden learned how to coach.  The guy has been coaching for 20 years and been a HC for what, 15-20 years?  Dude is a .500 coach (or so?)

 

The reason this year looks good is because of two transfers (lucky to have them and that is a compliment but getting awesome transfers is lucky) and a 4 year PG.

 

 

 

You live in a world that must have a lot of LUCK

You're free to have your opinion.  The numbers say otherwise.

 

The Big 8 and Big12 were always top heavy with Kansas and 1 other team.  Those two teams were almost guaranteed L's - Their RPI's made the conference averages much inflated.  So maybe the wrong #'s are being looked at.
