Frank Martin to South Carolina. The SEC East is good. The West isn't. TAMU and Mizzou come into the league next year. TAMU is not so good. Mizzou is good. Mizzou goes to the East. Figures. Even though there is no more East-West standings, you still play your fellow division teams 2X the other division teams. Martin will find the sledding a little rough at USCe.

Martin and the AD at Kansas State have not had a good working relationship for a while.

This also gets him closer to his home base in Florida. If SC comes with big bucks, it makes a lot of sense.

The general consensus is that Martin is taking a step DOWN on the job ladder. I'm not sure why everyone is so convinced of that. First and foremost, he's apparently getting in the neighborhood of a one million dollar annual raise from USC over KSU. That alone makes it a wise decision. Strictly in a basketball sense though I still don't see it as a bad move. Sure USC has been down lately and KSU has experienced some solid success in Martin's tenure but alot of that had to do with Martin. The SEC is far less rigorous than the Big 12 most years yet still carries all the cache of being a BCS conference. The natural recruiting base is probably stronger in the part of the country and Martin already has strong ties to South Florida to get players. He was apparently not on the same page as the administration at KState and he's going to a place that obviously covets athletic success. Seems like a win-win to me. Plus the co-eds at South Carolina are second-to-none. So he's got that going for him.

Reggie Theus.

Does this means Homer Drew has to go back to being head coach at Valpo until one of his grandkids is ready to take over? Because his two sons abandoned ship in a hurry.

I think Homer and his wife are both fighting cancer.

Scott is making $1.76M at Baylor. He took over a train wreck at Baylor. MSU is merely a dumpster fire, but it will still be a challenge. I don't think he has actually signed on the dotted line yet, so it may fall apart before it is done.

.

Am I crazy in thinking that hiring the head basketball (or any sport) coach is the job the trustees hired the AD to do. And the reason the trustees hire an AD is because the board of trustees doesn't have the experience or the expertise to make the decision themselves. If the trustees don't trust the AD to hire the coach, then they should just fire him. There is no reason to question his choice, just approve the contract or fire him and hire an AD whose judgment you trust.

And as much as I'd like to see more non-white coaches, you want to hire the best guy available. The answer to that is to give more non-white coaches the opportunity to be the best guy available.

I think it's a terrible idea when you hire a guy who has just been fired at a school on or approximately equivalent to your level.

But when a lower level school grabs a guy who has worked at the next level up it's not always a disaster, and sometimes can have a rejuvenating effect. McDermott at Creighton, Eustachy at Southern Miss, Monson at Long Beach being decent examples. Weber would have been better off going to the A-10 or Valley, a level he knows and where he's been very successful.

Dambrot is an Akron guy and he is loyal to AU. He was coach at St. Vincent/St Mary HS. All of his family lives in the Akron area.

It was always a long shot, but at least Dookcane tried. Dambrot will go no where.

Dambrot is loyal to his school and family and didn't do anything to make his wife cry- unlike some other coaches I know of who write on CBS banners then blow town to drive "Lexuses".

Also, its arguable that Duquense is a downgrade from Akron. At best, a sidegrade.

"SMU targeting Majerus"...that's one slow moving target

I don't think you have to invoke proper Latin when Japanese cars are involved.

Dear U of A,

You guys kind of suck. Stop insulting our Lexus brand name.

Thank you,

Then he's gone, SLU is paying $850.

At Majerus' age, is he really going to be interested in another rebuilding project? He left USC after about three (large) meals and I'm sure they agreed to pay more than SLU. I guess I wouldn't be shocked but I'd be kind of surprised if he left for another do-over at his age. He's got a pretty nice thing going at SLU and I'm sure he's in line for a raise sometime soon.

You can't spend any of the money when you are sprawled out dead.

Majerus sounded like he was on his last breath during his halftime interview in the NCAA's.

It wasn't a Beaknose "ummmmm" but a Majerus panting wheeze.

It also gets expensive when you can only get one time's use out of all your towels.

Interesting timing on that. Seems like the kind of coach Duquesne would normally hire.

True. Let's see if Dookcane tries to find the next Danny Nee.

That worked out well.

I expect Bob Hill, Mike Davis and Randy Wittman to be interviewing soon.

They already hired Jim Ferry from Long Island U. a couple of weeks ago. Not sure if he's the next Danny Nee or the next Ron Everhart.

Sp Va Tech fires Greenberg...okay...

Then turns around and hires the guy who left weeks ago to go to Clem(p)son.

Virginia Tech is the weirdest school in the country.

Yeah, the whole thing is strange. I think Clemson should Va. Tech.

That's a nice break for Mark Macon. It would have sucked to have to remain at Binghamton for any longer. This way, he gets out, and he gets paid.
