NCAA Tournament Team Loses Entire Starting Lineup To Transfer Portal

The Babbster will be missed.

Huss has been impressive as a head coach. At 6'9" coach would be a big change. https://highpointpanthers.com/sports/mens-basketball/roster/coaches/alan-huss/1538

Some of these are already off the table but it has some interesting considerations. 15 coaches on the rise entering the 2024-25 season - College Hoops Today

If he is the hire, then we should do everything we can to keep Phil Forte. Make him Associate Head Coach or something. Since continuity has worked in the past, perhaps I have a bias in favor of keeping existing Staff Members.

I am on board with this choice. He is young and I am sure he is hungry for an opportunity to prove himself.

it’s perhaps mildly conceivable that Hunter could still somehow leave the Wave for the newly-vacant job at AAC rival North Texas. Coaches have followed denials with exits in the past, and Tulane has seen several notable figures exit for other jobs in the last few years, including football coach Willie Fritz (to Houston) and AD Troy Dannen (to Washington; he’s now at Nebraska). Tulane responds to fake Jon Rothstein account

if you enjoy seeing mid-major teams and underdog programs have success, the NIT has played out in your favor. No, there were not many power conference teams represented to begin with, but each of the teams had to win three games to reach the semifinals and the four mid-major schools left standing did just that. The NIT's updated bracket has something the NCAA Tournament could never fathom

Actually just 1 year of competitive 20+ win basketball.

Guys like that are Few and Far Between!

I think if we were in their shoes we would see it as underwhelming. No NCAA appearances, no championships, and if you pulled up posts from a year ago you would find that large numbers on this board were opposed to any contract extension based on last year's performance. I personally think WVU is making a good hire, but I am not a WVU fan.

Did they ever buy tickets or attend games? Likely not, and this is just the latest excuse they make.

So that Wren could, if he wanted, hire Grant at his next stop. This should have never been approved by the President or BOR. However, it could have been Grant who wanted this provision.

Tylor Perry liked it here and so did Grant McCasland but sometimes that is not enough.

You mean this type of buyout? Hodgson‘s A-State contract calls for a $900,000 buyout. South Florida hires Bryan Hodgson as new head men’s basketball coach Or even this level buyout? Texas Tech is also expected to pay North Texas $750,000 to buy out the remainder of McCasland’s contract since he left before July 1, 2023. The buyout was $1.5 million, but the contract Between McCasland and North Texas shows that amount is reduced by 50 percent if Wren Baker is no longer the UNT athletics director or employed by UNT. UNT’s Grant McCasland signs six-year contract, becomes 19th Texas Tech men’s basketball coach

Experts are saying Ousmane is the difference.

1. I like the confidence that the AD had in our ability to make the NCAA Tournament thus not being concerned about scheduling the Super Pit on a random Tuesday night after the regular season was over. 2. Someone on this board needs to give a big gift for a new facility dedicated to Athletics only. 3. Some people wouldn't be satisfied even if the AD scheduled 7 home football games.

This team has a better bench than that team. North Texas 65-59 Oklahoma State (Mar 21, 2023) Box Score - ESPN

Don't overlook Arkansas State.

Do you believe that Grant would have won 31 games and the NIT without Ross as an assistant?

A no brainer for WVU if they can get him.

Ben McCollum was Head Coach at Northwest Missouri State during Wren's entire tenure there and has Drake in the NCAA tournament and a 30-win season. Seems like a no brainer to me.

You can help by buying tickets for students. I am sure you have received as many emails seeking $15 for Student Tickets as I have.
