Watching other schools be competent while we continue living in purgatory

If I crowd source it, how much would everyone chip in so I could approach McCollum tomorrow in Wichita with an offer to be our next coach?

Our fans would despise the pace of play.

Our “fans” aren’t ever going to be happy. Group hated kelvin for pace, Lon because he didn’t yell or get techs!

They expect blue blood results with mid major support.

I think it depends on your definition of blue blood. Is consistently making the tournament and not having losing records blue blood?

True. A generation of our fans were taught basketball by Billy. Billy's teams ran up and down the court and he yelled at the refs. He won big and had fun doing it. He had an attitude. Unlike succeeding coaches, Billy's issues were never with the fan base, but with the administration.

I loved Billy Ball. I don't expect it to return.

Billyball is what I grew up on. It’s why I liked OU basketball more than the football team for a couple of decades. Vastly more fun to go to game back then .. what with standing room only games and being part of iconic moments like that Missouri game. I wish we could find someone to run that successfully again.

Texas just made it official. Sean Miller it is. I’m jealous!!

 

[mict085]

Texas is doing what it needs to win. In years past, they wouldn’t even look at miller with his cheating past. That’s a good hire for them unfortunately. I thought they would aim a little higher but miller is a good coach and he’ll do well with Texas NIL.

My will wade dream is over. He’s gonna win at NC state while OU basketball dies a slow and excruciating death. RIP OU basketball. Killed by inattention and Joe Castiglione.

I thought Sean did an interview saying Xavier was taking a chance on him And he would be there long term. Guess money changes everything.

I don't think Miller is all that great. He's solid. Good even. But outside of a good stretch at Arizona, he's been pretty meh in the regular season. He has won some NCAA Tourney games though.

Good hire. Not a great one. Not yet at least.

You may want to check ‘the google’ he too is in his 21st year as a head coach. Overall record is 489-196 for a win percentage of .713. His in conference record is 94-46 or a wp of .671. He has gone to the dance 13 times in his 21 years. I don’t need to rehash PM’s record do I?

I wasn't comparing him to Moser. No reason to. I'm just talking in general, Miller at texas isn't as scary as it could have been.

Ended terribly at Arizona.
Went 16-18 last year at Xavier.
22-12 this year in what I'd term a "down" Big East. Barely got a Tourney invite.

I said he had some good on his resume. He had a stretch at Arizona that was really good. He had some really good years at Xavier his first time coaching there.

Just not a scary hire. You never know what (who) texas will try to buy when they have these openings. As a fan of a team that will have to play them twice a season in bball, this is probably best case scenario type stuff.
