Roy won’t get fired. I think his years are numbered here though. It’s just not working anymore.

Looks like Indiana is looking at Thad Matta & Mike Woodson (NBA coach)
-
@BeddieKU23 If I was them I’d look seriously at Dane Fife. Young, hungry, and a 10-year assistant job under Izzo.

ya know I heard on the radio a couple of days back that Thad Matta was all set to become the Coach at a School and may have even been Indiana everything was set and then Thad failed HIS PHYSICAL so didn’t go through. - Thought kind of strange why would Thad have to pass physical to Coach - sure I’m missing something , anyone else hear about that ? - - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
Health issues for Matta, chronic health issues caused by back surgery

Lon Kruger retiring.

Lon Kruger retiring.
Maybe we can get Griffen now.

-
@BShark The amount of available talent that exists rn is stupid.
-
Kreuger retiring surprises me - -didn’t see that coming
-

Most likely one of his assistant coaches will be the new coach
-
Not his son?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 said in Coach Hot Seat and Players to Poach:

His Son got the job at UNLV. That is part of the reason he is retiring. Wants to move back to Vegas to be closer to his Son and his family.
-
Thought the OU job would be better, all move there.
-
Being in Vegas would be sweet as a coach. Tons of AAU tournaments in your backyard. Findlay Prep there. You’ll get visits you may have never otherwise gotten because parents want a free trip to Vegas.
Honestly it is probably more shocking UNLV isn’t better on a routine basis.
-
Big lose for OU and the league

I always liked Lonnie , maybe cause he was a local kid. Grew up really close here to Topeka, didn’t like him playing at K-State but overall good guy , he will be missed
-
It took me awhile to appreciate him as a coach after rooting against him as a player, but he had a great career.

What about Porter Moser? This would be a great move for him. Compared to Indiana, the OU fan base has reasonable expectations.
-
Has isu hired a coach?

Yes they have hired a coach last week name is tj otzelberger from UNLV
-

-

-
@JAYHAWKFAN214 thx!

Shaka smart is on the move to Marquette likely
-
It’s official.
-
Crazy! Left before fired?
-
Wouldn’t Shaka get a buy out if he got fired? Man, he must have really wanted to get out of Texas.
-
@BShark Tamar Bates in play? Do we want?

Gotta be quicker Yes hes gone and hes going to Marquette
-
So he was likely to be fired I surmise. When is the last time a conference tournament champion was going to fire their head coach? Team will be getting rings - very interesting.

Make TyTy say no before anything else imo.
-
@BShark At this point I think you may have to press TyTy for a decision and get an answer and then move on.
You don’t want to whiff on Pettiford because TyTy wanted to drag it out.

Pettiford mentioned he will wait until mid to possibly late April after meeting with KU coaches. TyTy will likely announce next week.
Believe it was mentioned by someone that knows, KU talking to Pettiford was to try and get TyTy to commit.

Ahhh trying to use Pettiford for some leverage huh? - - war chips lol
-
@jayballer67 Yes but they would also 100% take him if TyTy goes to say, Illinois. The allure of starting at PG for KU is strong here though, to be sure.
-
Haha Shaka gone. Now Texas will get a good coach
-
Interesting but he’s a SG/wing really. Possible if we have one leave maybe?
-
@BeddieKU23 He’s a project that I think would struggle to see the floor anyways after watching tape. I didn’t watch it and think he was a must-land kind of prospect.
-
I liked his size and he has some game, not sure how well he did at IMG but his ranking went up a good bit since he became a Texas commit. Nice 4 year guy somewhere was my thought since KU was recruiting him
-
Well One thing for sure , The Big 12 gonna have plenty of ne faces whether players OR Coach’s. - -# New Coach’s Texas - - Oklahoma & - - Iowa State - - & it’s early just kind of wondering how hot the Coaching Seat is for Jamie at TCU - -could be a 4th ? - I know I’m Crazy but have always liked Jamie, NO not saying I would eve want here by any means, but for like where he is at TCU & Such - -thought he got kind of a raw deal at Pitt.
Side note not sure if anyone is aware or even cares just throwing it out. K-State and Ol squeaks losing a FOURTH PLAYER to the portol
-
@Kcmatt7 @BeddieKU23 If we lose more guys and he wants to come here sure you take him.
