update

[chewy75]

No where near close to naming a coach. Most of the names being thrown around are in the mix. Williams is doubtful due to his contract, Kruegar is a possibility, first choice is Brad Stevens but not going to happen. They feel like they rushed the decision with Jeff and do not want to do it again. I would not expect anything to happen till after the championship game at the earliest.

Awesome, thanks chewy. Glad they are making sure they get it right.

Good god I can't take another whole week of this.

 

[Mr.B!!!]

Thanks!

 

[MNsooner]

Thanks for the info. The fact that the decision is taking so long really makes me think that they really want to make and offer to one or both of Stevens and Smart, but have to wait until the tourney is over. That is just my speculation though.

Thanks a ton for the update, Chewy. :clap

Thanks Chewy.

Now, I think I'll log off for a week for my own sanity's sake.

give Brad Stevens a blank check and have him fill it in

What names being thrown around are NOT in the mix IYPO?

a brain-dead monkey could do a better job than this RETARD Joe is doing. He needs to be fired ASAP.

Just read his wiki page...sounds like a guy that is loyal to Butler.

Well, at least we maybe learned something in the process of hiring Capel. I hope this ends on a positive note, but we will see.

 

[rocjunkie]

Good stuff, thanks Chewy.

 

[NormanPride]

Joe C has a good history with second hires at a position, I think. Thanks for the update, chewy.

 

[JustOkSooner701]

Unless we land one of the final 4 coaches the delay is ridiculous 16 days is enough time & reeks of window dressing .

 

[skyvue]

I wouldn't mind the slow pace of the process if other schools weren't firing and hiring coaches in the interim. How is it Mizzou can lose a good coach and hire another in shorter time than our search is taking?

Agree 110%. A slow process is fine unless that means that everyone else is swoopin' in and taking the best prospects - leaving us with nothing but the Evans' and Marshalls' of the world.
