Drake's next coach

Bob Hansen. Unlike B.J. Armstrong, Drake wouldn't have to pay his moving expenses.
 
Matt Gatens?
Fran McCaffery?

Who??
I don’t see Gatens as a HC. Least nothing now has shown me or from what I’ve heard to person connected to the program. Seems like a decent enough asst. but not sure ready for for grind of being head guy.

That being said rumor I’ve heard is BG wants gatens to stay and be on the next staff. Is technically the interim if they had gone to postseason and basically only coach who hasn’t cleaned out his office.

That'll be up to the new HC.
 
A lot of the guys on this year’s roster have upside and the new coach would be wise to try and keep them. Same goes for the 3 recruits, though one has decommited already.
Haven’t heard much about other 2 recruits. Would like diakete to stay. Team will need some bigs. Also for those wondering here are 2 guys who committed to drake. Zero clue if BM would try and bring either to Iowa. We saw Fran bring basabe who was a Siena commit who had a solid career at Iowa.

 
I thought you would apply for the job, being you are the great pretender....
I would, but A) I don't want to move to DSM from San Diego B) I'm doing very well as a retiree C) I wouldn't be able to come on this message board and critic the hell outta you.... lol

BTW, BH could end up at Drake...

I have nothing for or against Gatens, but does anyone even know if he’s a good assistant coach? Not trying to be flippant either, I’m genuinely curious if he has a lot of standout qualities and shows promise.

It just seems like people invoke his name quite a bit because he’s a legacy and played here.
