Dave Rose a leading candidate?

[greenbug]

Sorry if this has been posted, but according to Andy Katz both Rose and Buzz are leading candidates for the job. This was on espn earlier today.

Interesting, someone on this board has been suggesting him for awhile (sorry, I forgot who), but I didn't think it was a real possibility.

Does Jimmer Fredette have a brother?

Not a Rose fan unless somehow Jimmer gains a year or two of extra eligibility and comes with him.

 

[boksooner]

There are definately worse candidates.
159-44 (78-18 MWC)
25+ wins in last 5 years
30+ in the last two
5 straight NCAAs
Born in Houston
Played high school and college ball in Houston

I'll take him.

This guy was winning before Jimmer. Plus he took over a team that wasn't any good the year before and turned things around quickly.

Count me in. I didn't know he was from Houston and wasn't sure if he was a viable candidate for faith considerations.

Rose is supposedly very unhappy with the move from the mwc to the wcc and wants out of Provo.

I know he has gone on at least one LDS mission which makes me wonder if or why he would leave BYU.

Other rumors have had him mentioned for Utah.

Yes that's my concern too.

It appears he did go on one mission in the late 70's before college.

Most of those reasons are no different than what any coach making a move would have to do. The main question for me is "will his religion hold him there"?

Luckily, Oklahoma is a bastion of religious tolerance.

Yup! The reddest state in the union filled with us Bible banging wackos.

 

[coolm]

unfortunately Oklahoma also has me, the antitheist, and I have zero tolerance for that religion crap

just say "no" to fairy tales
