Well Cmac is gone for sure but I'd like his Dad to stick around. Cmac will be a grad assistant somewhere else regardless.
Miller and Condon stoking rumors on Fran leaving after the season
- Thread starter Chishawk1425
- Start date
A lot of really stupid takes in this thread. I’m no fan of nepotism. The Brian Ferentz stuff is ridiculous. But Connor would get plenty of minutes for almost every team in the country. Some of you think we would be Kansas if Fran just benched Connor. In truth, we lost to Eastern frickin Illinois when he was injured. You think that’s a coincidence?
72 is the new 65. Fran is too old for a new hire. He's got maybe seven seasons left in him. Given his red faced rages and his increasing obesity (sucks to get old) he could have a heart attack at any time. Not being facetious, those are the kinds of things that happen unexpectedly to old people. Fran is now an old person.
I saw your comment and overwrote the OP with 'North Dakota' in my head and was very confused....
Think Bigger....
its Rick Pitino...he is dying for one more big shot. He has been a good boy at Iona.

I think that Fran has an idea on when he wants to quit coaching, and it isn't feet first on a gurney being rolled out of CHA. He seems like a guy who could walk away from coaching with no regrets. I can see him walking away from basketball period minus watching Connor coach somewhere, or Jack somewhere. There hasn't been much chatter around town about Jack being set on playing at Iowa.
Well, the rules have changed. But, Pitino is a dirt bag. Once a dirt bag, always a dirt bag.
You do remember that when the Illinois coach was asked which Big Ten player from another team he would want, he said Connor. Guess the coaches evaluate talent better than you do.
Gosh, with the love pouring down from fans like you, what on earth could CMac complain about...
Fran wasn't even on most of the lists I saw.
For some reason Chris Holtman was a top pick. Lol. Ok.

You're butthurt about something but to keep saying Connor isn't valuable is just dumb. Obviously you have an agenda. You don't like Connor, we get it, so you can stop posting garbage now.
I don’t have any information, but I know this.
JBo and Cmac absolutely love fvcking with people on social media. I wouldn’t make much of that part.
Good point there as well. It was talked about quite a bit this morning on the show and then Kakert not really shooting it down so thought I'd share.
While the dog and I rarely see eye to eye on much he’s 100% spot on. Do you really think one of the most high profile colleges in the entire country would hire a guy of Frans age? I’m concerned about the mental health of some of you on here. Maybe Fran does want the job. Is Notre Dame going to hire a guy for maybe 5-7 years? The answer is no. They’re going to look for an up and coming guy. Which they should.
I’m a fan of yours Chis. Not dissing you at all. I just think there’s zero chance ND is looking at Fran. If I’m wrong I’m fine with that.
I’m surprised the OC’s name hasn’t been brought up by now. Or maybe it was, I skipped a bunch of back and forth spats.
Hire Fran with a coach in waiting. Connor learns the craft and is ready in 5-6 years
Fran has been good here, he brought the program back to its feet when it was in a very dark place. His only knock is the lack of success in the NCAA tournament.
