  1. If he lost the team I don't think half of them would be transferring out because he left
  2. KD is doing just that. Their top player announced he was transferring and now it appears he will stay. Maybe our new skipper will be recruiting our own players.
  3. Well now I officially think next year is going to be rough. I thought we had enough talent to win the MAC with what was left.
  4. I don't want to go Charlie Coles heavy, but heavier than what we've gotten. Charlie Coles had them run the gauntlet before MAC play.
  5. @balsy You'd probably do better to not be so condescending. Though I feel like you've heard that before.
  6. Yeah I don't like ruling out everyone that has ever coached with him. I'd look outside anyone that was on the 2016-2017 staff though
  7. We were the exception with having a successful coach stay at our level for so long. Unfortunately, that most likely won't happen again. Make a great hire, and do it again in 4-5 years.
  8. Depends if his beef if any was with Akron or KD. I'd assume it'd be a relatively short convo if it was with Akron
  9. Yeah KD isn't here. Who cares if Paris wanted to leave his staff?
  10. I think you missed my point.
  11. Neither one should be making the choice
  12. KD is gone, who cares!
  13. On top of that, I'm assuming he's doing a decent job in Wisconsin as he's been promoted to associate HC, and everyone on their message boards expects him to leave for a HC gig. And as we all know message board posters are the smartest.
  14. I'm thinking my first choice would be Paris. He's learned from KD, Bo Ryan, and now Gard. He's had experience in the Big Ten and of course with us for a while. Removed enough from KD to have his own ideas. We could do a lot worse.
  15. I think you forgot the attachment
  16. Josh is transferring to Robert Morris
  17. We need some coaching news fast
  18. I just don't see why you think it's so far fetched that people don't want to sit on bleachers to watch MAC and lower level D-1 teams.
  19. No one cares about those teams. Also to your second point - find an example that has a comparable arena.
  20. Exactly. You buy tickets to 15 home games and see 3 that might catch "Joe Akron's" eye. Sure, we're at most of them.. But the casual fan doesn't want to sit on bleachers and watch us play BG, Miami, NIU, Ball State, etc let alone Adrian and Coppin State
  21. Again, it takes a die-hard to sit at the JAR to watch the teams we play. I think it really is that simple. Heck I bet we had 7k+ at the Q for the MACC. It's a big time feel, people will drive an hour for that. The JAR is about as small time as it gets
  22. There's no joking about the Potato Bowl
  23. They just did
  24. I mean it's a total guess. I just get the feeling Pres. Wilson is really invested in the hoops program the way he has been and will want it to remain at the top of the MAC.
