Coaching Hot Seat and Searches

That's the kind of hire you make when you really just want the pension plan to kick in sometime in the late autumn circa 2026.

That's what I told my father in law when he texted me about it. Dabo is basically trying to get fired at this point.

[Texzilla]

Is motherfucking Chad moving his wife to shutdown? 

I only hope that chads return is the catalyst that topples Dabo and the entire program.  I hatee that fucker

[Too Big Pig]

And in Arkansas football fashion, Dabo gets fired. They promote Chad to interim. He keeps the gig year two and wins a natty. National pundits talk about his redemption from Arkansas.

While that seems like our luck, it will never happen.  No way in hell Chad could win a natty.

he would have to beat a power 4 team, something he never did during his 5 years as a head coach.

it would be a bigger surprise than what Cignetti has done at Indiana.

Not sure Dabo has even equity for the #hammerdown offense to get installed, but we all know the offensive (or rather lack thereof) is gonna get him fired.

Kirby Smart to the Falcons? Wonder who Georgia would go after at this stage.

Wasn't this guy at A-State? I guess Providence is a better situation than Jonesbongle

Interesting. UNC is an odd bunch. They often hire a lot of former players. I think they'll go outside this time. I wonder if a guy like Mark Few would be interested. Seems like he has hit his ceiling with the Zags. Guys like Painter and Underwood may be interested as well.

Just tossing a few names out here. Not really seeing a lot of names that just get me all excited but then again I wasn't overwhelmed by Cal but god damn he was a home run. There just isn't many of those guys floating around. Not sure who's out there in the NBA but maybe Carolina goes for a NBA guy. Will be interesting to see what happens when there are few "new hotness" head coaches in the hiring pool when so few mid-majors are making noise in March.

A few names that maybe could be moving...

Bryce Drew

T. J. Otzelberger (Iowa State, wiki reports he's making 4 mil per) I think he can do better

Mark Byington


As loaded as the SEC is I won't be shocked to see someone (big name) bolt to either Kansas or UNC but you know Oats has Alabama in the national title hunt so it's not like it's really hurting him that he's in a stacked SEC. 


Also and oh by the way not that I'm complaining but how the fuck is the LSU coach not already fired? We dodged a bullet with that one he was on my short list and probably several others here. He's basically the corn rows of basketball at this point. Is LSU still under a penalty? Maybe that's why.

That account is a serious troll. He is full of 💩

I forget who it was and what it was over but he got exposed during the college football season.

[vegashog]

lsu invests more in their women's program than their mens (so does south carolina, not a coincidence the two worst teams in the conference), and mcmahon has the lowest salary in the sec by almost a million.

they pretty much don't seem to give a fuck about men's basketball anymore. and with kiffin sucking up all the nil money, it probably won't get any better soon.

Not sure LSU gives a damn about basketball currently, they're still in their honeymoon phase with Kiffin.  Suspect the bulk of the revshare/NIL funds are going to Football, Baseball, and WBB.  They have their own version of Petrino drama with Will Wade.  The AD who fired him is gone, a lot of fans want him back, the guy who hired him at McNeese State is named Wade, and is now the president of LSU.  He's only been at NC St for a season, suspect he wouldn't go back to LSU unless he had assurances about their NIL commitment.

I've lived here almost 30 years, and I know a bunch of football and baseball season ticket holders, never met any with basketball tickets.

I've heard Kenny Smith floated around. Which is nuts in my mind, guy has never coached anything ever. They'll hire whomever MJ throws his money behind.

Must be nice to have a former athlete that is a billionaire that wants to donate to your athletic program.

[animal]

Given that MJ has been horrendous with being a owner/gm in the NBA...I'm not scared of him goosing up UNC basketball. 

[vegashog]

actually jordan has been called out for not giving enough in nil along with some of their other wealthy basketball alums. he given a lot to other parts of the university.

[DrMongoose]

It is official.

media guys saying they will go outside of 'unc family' for the hire.

portal opens in two weeks so the hire should be made fairly quickly.

[Hizog]

The UNC AD should publicly offer Krzyzewski $20M per year just to mess with Duke.
