Quote from: flash23 on Apr 02, 2024, 02:36 PMTang would be a massive gamble. I bet HY makes another run at Sampson. With the football season, then the drama allegedly surrounded the basketball program this year, he knows he needs to make a splash. Sampson isn't a dude that shops himself around. He's old, but he can obviously still coach.

Beard just signed a big extension at Ole Miss, did he not?

Kelvin Sampson is 68, no thanks.

And yes, Beard signed an extension. But he also left UNLV after 6 weeks for Texas Tech...

Go get Tang.

He's gone, IF USC offers.  Not sure they will.

Would be a weird situation for him to publically lift his skirt for USC, not get it, and then just... keep working here?

I guess things like that have happened at other schools, and sometimes it works out.



Things don't usually work out for us though, so I would expect it to get very messy and embarrassing before it's all over.

Quote from: HughJasole on Apr 02, 2024, 02:25 PMI'd be more on board for Tang if he'd done better this year, but it was a significant step back from year one. Two years of head coaching experience also worries me.

Would rather have Beard or Wade or even someone like McCasland if he wanted to jump from TTU.

We tried a flash in the pan coach and got Heath.  Get someone with experience who knows how to win big games and keep it up in the tournament.

For $7 mil I'll put a webcam in front of my shitter so I can answer fan questions while I drop the Longhorns off in College Station.

Are we okay with Chris Beard? what's our integrity level vis a vis women beaters?

He's not going out there to interview unless he has an offer in hand.

Beard and Wade are the only names that would move the needle for me.

They have experience in this league, they have won big everywhere they've been, and they coach their ass off and get the most of their talent.

I guess it depends on what you think he actually did.

"Chris did not strangle me, and I told that to law enforcement that evening. Chris has stated that he was acting in self-defense, and I do not refute that. I do not believe Chris was trying to intentionally harm me in any way. It was never my intent to have him arrested or prosecuted. We appreciate everyone's support and prayers during this difficult time," she said

He's the only one I'd be happy with. Throw the bank at him if Muss leaves.

Probably true, I guess.

Believe all women, not guilty. Come on down, Chris.

Beard would be a move that winners make.  He clearly won't be our next coach should Muss depart.

We'll probably end up with Will Wade

WaywardMemphian

Whether he gets the job or not, he's done here. Arkansas folk don't cotton with getting cheated on. It was Nutt's downfall.

Maybe I'm just iffy on him because I couldn't stand him at LSU, but they seemed to have the opposite problem Muss teams have, which is start off on fire and then lose steam towards the end of the year. 1 Sweet 16 appearance in his entire coaching career. He's been out the first weekend every other time he's gone

Vito Porkleone

Don't want Wade at all.  Back up the truck for Beard if we're hiring a coach.

Spiderham

If we are looking at coaches with punchable faces, Id take Nate Oates over Will Wade all day long. Both are very sleazy and very punchable.
