I feel bad about the coaching stuff

There will be no more murrays,garzas,dix or Freeman types coming in. Now we have a very good nucleus of players and very good recruitment going on. Too bad for the people who want the new dude.
Too bad for the apologists....

 
Fran’s philosophy was not ( and is not) the major issue with the men’s basketball program….send your $$$ and the defense will improve… as will the rebounding…Fran’s a solid coach…as were Davis, Olson and Miller…. Never sold on Alford and Lick and Schultz were just overmatched…
How good were they at defense and rebounding before NIL/money was an excuse? It's a nice excuse but the reality is that for the majority of the 15 years the defense was laughable. Sending money doesn't magically make someone become a better coach.

It is certainly a qualifier from here on out… and honestly, $$ has always been a major contributor to any perennial or traditional power in football if basketball…at least during my lifetime (75 years(…

no way to know any of this--maybe the next guy keeps everyone after they speak with him?

One thing I will say--Fran wasted a lot of time chasing 4 star players he never got--everyone would say because he was the first or second to offer that he was this great evaluator but offering 4 stars--is that really evaluating?
Plus he liked ot do all the recruiting himself--too bad he did not get an Eldridge type on staff earlier---if new coach retains him--the recruits might stay--
We should and can do better than making the 68 team dance 47% of the time.....plus look at some of the teams he had and could not do much with them.....one trick pony he is....
