Who Should OSU Hire as Next Basketball Head Coach?

[Cowboyshoopspride]

There's still a few good ones left, even in that tourney. I also like that if it is someone still coaching, we are respecting the existing coach/school/team to let them finish their season before announcing they're leaving. I've always thought that was extremely bush league when a school announces or leaks that they've hired someone and there's still games to be played by that coach's team.

Exactly what I was thinking.

Process question: what are the assistants doing right now? I didn’t see any of them Dismissed or resign. Are they still on contract? If so, what exactly do they do every day?

I saw that they contacted a player that had entered the portal, so they're still trying to recruit. I would assume they're trying to keep the current roster together as well. It will be interesting to see if the next head coach decides to keep any of them on staff.

What if it’s the little dance?

I'll take the Indiana State guy as long as he is contractually obligated to bring Larry Nerd with him.

I now it's pissing a lot of people off but the fact that nothing is leaking at all and Chad (et all) are playing this super close to the vest actually has me intrigued a bit. I have zero doubt the various articles and pontifications from any source have been nothing but clickbait guesses. Had we made legitimate offers there would be records of it, real interviews with said coaches, etc. I truly believe he's really working this thing above and beyond what people think.

If it goes through this week hell maybe it’s McDermott. The fans should be happy if that’s the case.

Retired CIA director is an interesting move.

Not sure what kind of money SC has to throw around but, it may slow our process down until they settle on someone.

Had an official announcement even been made that he was fired from USC?

No, he would have resigned to take the SMU job, he has not been fired.

It was probably a "you should look for another job" situation. Similar to Smart leaving ut.

Yep, that is the tourney that Tech got their coach from last year. A coach we could've snagged if we had pulled the trigger a year earlier.
