Future of Moser

[IndySooner]

Would Moser really be flying to Chicago two days before a Big 12 tourney game? I would like to think not.

No

Well, of course not. It got moved to Dallas after he was surprised everyone caught on.

Tried telling you guys.

Tried telling you guys.

Any insight on who we try to go after?

Is Kellen really the likely choice? What are your feelings on Kellen?

 

[IndySooner]

So, I talked to a couple of people this morning. Starting to actually believe this Moser to DePaul thing has legs.

<spits coffee out of mouth>

Huge shock if true

 

[WichitaSooner]

I’m trying not to get my hopes up. If it’s true and we are lucky enough to get paid and get an opportunity to get a new coach, I’ll spend more time thinking about who I want Joe to pursue. I don’t see any scenario where Will Wade is a candidate. Dude is a known cheater and it would be a complete 180 for Joe to associate with someone like that.

As for the kind of coach I want, he would be someone who can coach offense, develop players, understands the level of athlete you need in the SEC, and isn’t a self-promoter.

 

[steverocks35]

To get Lincoln Rileyed would be crazy

 

[WTSooner]

McDermott would be amazing, but that isn't happening. You want a somewhat legit option (even though its not happening) that I'd take over Kellen, he'd be it. But I'm guessing he has turned down better jobs than OU to stay at Creighton over the years.

 

[CoachTalk]

One chicago source says its not happening but so much smoke...

I think its kellen if it does happen.

DeVries would be really good IMO.

 

[IndySooner]

That Coaching Changes twitter account has hedged so hard on the Moser stuff. It's all BS. They don't have real connections.

 

[soonervegas]

What does this say about the state of the program if someone leaves for a 3-28 team?

 

[WichitaSooner]

What does this say about the state of the program if someone leaves for a 3-28 team?

It says less about the program than the man leading the program.

Bc I am tired of seeing the Kellen talk.

More often than not, it is a failed experiment. Some of these coaches are being fired this year. I am sure if I grabbed some from last year, we would see more of the same.

I will add that correlation with NBA experience and HC seems to = fired.

 

[steverocks35]

This is cryptic. Can't confirm but also didn't say it wasn't happening.

 

[WTSooner]

What does this say about the state of the program if someone leaves for a 3-28 team?

Some will disagree, but I think it's more about culture and going "home" than it is him throwing in the towel on the OU program.

That said, his seat, even with us making the Tournament this year, is/was getting hotter. Lose Uzan and maybe JM this offseason. Miss the Tournament next year? At least if he leaves now he can pick his destination.

JMO.

If he leaves it's 100% about going home. That said, I don't think he's going home if he thinks he's set up to succeed at Oklahoma. If that were the case, he could "go home" when Underwood moves from Illinois or when Northwestern's coach gets a better job.

I actually think that's more likely. Northwestern's coach gets a big time job and Porter moves to Northwestern. They can move back to Wilmette or Winnetka or whatever W town they lived in and be in the Big 10.

 

[StoopsBros]

Saint Louis rumors are popping up on the Trilly discord.

If I'm Moser...I'm adamant on leaving OU, and SLU wanted me, I'd go there over DePaul, for sure. It's not Chicago, sure, but a much better setup right now.
