2024 Coaching Carousel

Mass St would burn if we hired a coach that never won a tournament game
-
@FarmerJayhawk KU hired Roy Williams!
-
Evan Fran is on Twitter wondering if the UK fanbase is always this way. Yes Fran, itâs a disease there
-
@wissox yeah, 35 years ago! Things are so, so much different now.
-
@FarmerJayhawk and by âdifferentâ, I can only assume you mean âworseâ.
-
@nuleafjhawk not at all. Life is much, much better than it was back then
-
@FarmerJayhawk Good for you! Not everyone can say that.
-
@nuleafjhawk well I wasnât born yet so that helps. But I did just talk to my grandpa the other day since he turned 90 and he and my grandma are in a much, much better way than back then. And I think theyâre in the vast majority
-
@FarmerJayhawk I think you may have a better all around attitude than me. I mean, I have a great family and that part is wonderful, but the general state of the world appalls me.
When I was 12, my dad would take me and my best friend to the lake (about 35 miles from our house), drop us off on a Friday evening and pick us up on Sunday evening.
If I heard of someone doing that in these times, Iâd do everything in my power to have them arrested and the kids put in protective custody. Itâs not a safe place âout thereâ.
But I do like my air conditioning and streaming TV⌠so I guess some things are better.
-
@nuleafjhawk I have two minds on that, 1) we see more bad things than we used to just because we see more of EVERYTHING than we used to, so that checks out. 2) crime is way down from what it was back then, so while people felt safer, they likely werenât. So good and bad to everything I suppose

BYU got a really , really , good hire for their Head Coach. -Phoenix Suns Associate Head Coach-- -Kevin Young is now BYUâs new head Coach. - -Young is the NBAâs Highest paid assistant , really good - - had been mentioned in the last couple of rounds for NBA Coaching job - think they will be happy with him - - Not quite sure how BYU pulled that off
-

$$$ and religion is how they pulled that off because Young is Mormon, but this isnât KUâs Kevin Young.
-
Iâm happy Pope is out of the Big 12! Perfect fit at UK.

Didnât realize that or hear that , but kind of thought the religious might of been part of it & ya I knew it wasnât KU Kevin Young , although kind of chuckled to myself-- - -OH Kevin .

@jayballer67 Since BYU is a private school, they donât have to disclose the financial details, but he was making $2 million per year as the highest paid assistant coach in the NBA. Youngâs contract according to CBS is 7 years, $30 million dollars so a little over double what he made with the Suns.

Wow , ya Iâd say pretty decent decision for himâpretty good jump
-
Lakers are targeting Dan Hurley as their next coach and the two sides are going to be meeting to discuss how their visions for the Lakers would look. Hurley has always wanted to coach in the NBA and it sounds like thereâs a strong chance the Lakers hire him.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 Saw a tweet about this possibly, hopefully (?) freeing up McNeely from his commit there. Commenter on that tweet mentioned Self didnât really recruit him after he de-committed from Indiana. So IDK, but someone here knows something!
-
Wow, Tony Bennett retiring, effective immediately
-
@FarmerJayhawk very strange time to just up and retire
-
@kjayhawks right? Especially since he just signed an extension in June

Iâm guessing either health related, doesnât sound like his own, or NCAA is about to announce something against UVA.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 that would be a real gut punch. Uva prides itself on being squeaky clean.

My guess, and just a guess, is that heâs timing this where no players can realistically leave before the semester. They can enter the portal but schools almost always honor the scholarships through the semester. Plus he can choose his successor.
