Title: Doug Gottlieb to Oklahoma St.

Rumblings

An OSU tuck told me there is a grassroots effort similar to gE's 4 yrs ago. Even he likes the idea. Dickey would remain as the X's and O's guy.

There is also a strong feeling that he could get a $600k-$800k job pretty easy and he wouldn't sit out a year just to stick it to OSU.  His new salary comes off the buyout.

I've heard Doug to OSU discussed on the radio 4 separate times in the last couple weeks down here.  It's all been very dismissive of it.  One person even brought up how he angled for the KSU job.  His stance was if Doug was seriously thinking about coaching 4 years ago he should have taken a lower HC job because everyone's known for 3 or 4 years the OSU job was opening in '16 or '17.

Doug has absolutely no reason to take a low level coaching job or be a P5 assistant. His gig is great, putting his name out there for P5 jobs he likes is just win-win for him.

He should do it again when the K-State job becomes open, and then send John Currie a kissy face picture. I don't think John Currie probably likes Doug all that much.

Good for Doug. His own college experience should help him relate. Pitfalls to avoid. Adversity overcoming. Etc. I'm excited to see what all happens.

Yes Pullen as HC. Denis and Jamar. Recruiting ties. Curt to just put his arms out and bounce on bad calls. I'll take Energy 1.0 as well. That will be all. Thank you .

That's because we initially wanted Doug in part to continue the excitement/anger/Doominess of our basketball culture. That's completely gone now. Fun basketball was sooooo five years ago. Doug probably would've been good at continuing that momentum, don't know about him completely regenerating it, though.

“What I've always said to people about Oklahoma State is I'm in it for the right reasons,” Gottlieb said. “It's like the Bachelorette; at the beginning of the Bachelorette, they're trying to figure out who wants the reality show and who really wants to marry the girl."

his ability to drop a bachelorette reference while trying to qualify himself as a legitimate candidate for the HC job at his alma mater is incredible

there is absolutely no doubt that he would completely regenerate fun basketball.  everything about him representing our school would be great.  don't be mistaken, the buzz around hiring him would be huge and he's so well connected to the media market that our school's name would be everywhere which would instantly boost his recruiting.

So this is clearly a move by OSU to try to energize/grow their languid fan base. What's interesting is that he  is polarizing down there, there are a lot of older fans who are pissed at him when he had a falling out with Eddie Sutton.

are we sure they do, or maybe Holder doesn't care enough about basketball. Holder says he didn't see better offers coming for Brad, that's bs. So, yeah they don't care enough to come up with a salary increase structure and incentives that would give Brad an average of $3 mil the next couple of seasons. I think holder will make an oscar type hire. I think Doug actually cares, loves OSU and want's to coach for sentimental reasons (alma mater, his dad was a coach, his brothers coach, sutton legacy). I would still take Doug at EMAW.

It's very weird how their administration views basketball.  They haven't put much money into it.  They took me to their basketball practice facility.  You can walk to it from inside GIA through hallways.  However, if I filmed the walk starting from the moment I walked off the court in GIA, without the logos you would think I was in a high school walking to their auxiliary gym.  The actual room with the practice court feels just like my high school's second gym with the walls right up on the baseline.  The acoustics are also terrible in it.  It has that horrible concrete wall echo.  I know it's just a practice facility, but I didn't expect it to feel like the extra court in the local YMCA expansion.

It's like their AD has just completely given into the "the Thunder took half our fan base" mentality. When they started winning in February, the fan base started coming back very quickly and there started to be a palpable excitement again.

Doug would be viewed by many as a risky dumb hire, and maybe it is, but I actually think he'd be a good coach. Particularly w/ college bball. So much of it is recruiting, even moreso than football. And I think he'd be a fantastic recruiter and at least solid in teh x and os part.

He would have been set up for success after Frank left. Frank left a great situation and Gottlieb would have been a good shot at taking advantage of it. I wouldn't want him after oscar leaves. (But would still be OK w/ thinking outside the box).

Yeah, if he gets OSU job, it's now.  Otherwise if he wants to coach, he will have to take HC at smaller school and work up from there. I don't get any indication that he wants to be an asst at a P5 school. He wants to be a HC or he's sticking with his job he has now (or the one he will Start at Fox soon)

In terms of basketball facilities, besides the fact that GIA may have a better look with the brick and all orange predominately empty chair back seats.   They don't have anything on us from a basketball facilities perspective.   That's the only thing a b-ball coach is going to care about.   

Our practice/admin facility is one of the nicest ones in the country and our game day dressing rooms and game day sports medicine facilities as well as the post game press room just got a million dollar make-over, and of course we just put in a $5 million-plus dollar AV/Scoring/Lighting system.

The biggest key to Gottlieb being successful there would be Evans returning.  It would be tough to get/keep momentum going if the team has a down year.

Is there a chance that OSU makes another run at Self or has that ship sailed?  I don't think they could get him but they should definitely call T Boone for a number and then call Self's agent.  I would test those waters every time the position opened.

I would give it a zero percent chance unless KU wins it all this year. That might give OSU a 1-5% chance IMO. But I also have no problems w/ any school reaching out to alumni to inquire about an opening. Particularly if the coach is in the later part of his/her career w/ all the money and accolades needed. Why not reach out? Just keep it under wraps so you don't look foolish for gettign turned down (again).

Until they spent the money in some kind of university/city partnership (I think that was the case) to upgrade GIA.   Between what K-State spent on Bramlage and expanding the football stadium in 1998, that was more than double what OSU spent on facilities in the previous 4 decades.   What was to become T.

last chance at a actual hc job without going through the ranks first
very awkward interview


It was interesting. I think Doug truly value's Soren's opinion and part of it seemed to be Doug really wanting Soren to validate him, but Soren was honest with the positives and negatives that Doug would bring a program.

I don't see the reasoning to do that, why would they care if Washington fans are mad? If Porter Sr is truly letting his son make the decision this could get interesting.

i just think that none of the parties involved really want it to look like cuonzo and the porters had this all worked out beforehand. if porter comes out immediately and says he's going to mizzou then it kind of looks that way. that would maybe make martin look bad because he was probably recruiting for mizzou when he was still coaching cal and it doesn't exactly make the porters look great either. maybe I'm wrong, but i think everybody just looks a little better if they slow play this.

Gotleib would energize the fanbase until they started getting shelled next year.  Would be a horrible hire.....OSU is in no position to hire coaching rookies.  Too much of a risk.  Talking basketball and coaching basketball are two different skills.

Because there is zero risk in hiring a lifetime coach. Gmafb.

I said in the very first post in that chain that both he and Young could end up at Missouri together. I never once said that he wouldn't be at Missouri. Lon isn't going to hire his dad so I'm guessing he ultimately won't end up there, BUT the possibility exists that he could end up at OU. The point of the post was just to point out the possibility of Porter and Young playing together at Mizzou or OU.

So this guy was on staff with Darrin Horn at South Carolina, but then Frank didn't retain him. He was also involved in South Carolina's self punishment for NCAA issues when Frank was hired.

https://southcarolina.rivals.com/news/ncaa-accepts-uscs-punishment-w-video

Banned from recruiting, even though he wasn't on staff. I see no evidence he was on staff at all when Frank was there (or coaching for anyone in that time frame) but then he ended up being hired by Brad when he went to SFA and then OSU.

Odd.

gotlieb was just on 810

leaving cbs going to fox
last chance at a actual hc job without going through the ranks first
very awkward interview


It was interesting. I think Doug truly value's Soren's opinion and part of it seemed to be Doug really wanting Soren to validate him, but Soren was honest with the positives and negatives that Doug would bring a program.

You guys definitely buried the lede on this interview. MICHAEL PORTER JR COULD END UP AT OU! WHAT??? Or possibly crazier, Trae Young and Porter Jr might end up at Missouri. Those two kids at the same school would be nuts.

I think that's just talk to make it look like the martin and porter to mu together thing hasn't been a done deal that was worked out a week ago.

I don't see the reasoning to do that, why would they care if Washington fans are mad? If Porter Sr is truly letting his son make the decision this could get interesting.

i just think that none of the parties involved really want it to look like cuonzo and the porters had this all worked out beforehand. if porter comes out immediately and says he's going to mizzou then it kind of looks that way. that would maybe make martin look bad because he was probably recruiting for mizzou when he was still coaching cal and it doesn't exactly make the porters look great either. maybe I'm wrong, but i think everybody just looks a little better if they slow play this.

I'm just going to take them for their word, I don't know why that's so hard for people to do when it comes to athletes.

maybe because people involved in athletics (coaches more than players i suppose) lie a lot?  :dunno:

Do they though? Do they lie anymore than someone in software sales? I have no way of knowing that so I'm not going to assume that they do.

so we should believe what gottleib said someone told him about porter because you aren't sure how often a software salesman lies? good grief.

Believe what you want, I'm not sure why you're so indignant. I posted some information you said you don't believe it because basketball coaches lie. I don't care that you for some reason think college basketball coaches are less trustworthy than anyone else. I don't feel this way, I'm completely unburdened with trying to suss out whether or not I'm being lied to solely based on a person's career choice.



he will end up at MU and after he does i'll go oh yeah no crap he was always going to end up there and you'll go oh ok, he ended up at mu. much in the way that I'm going yeah no crap weber snuck into the tournament as the last overall choice and didn't get fired it was always going to be that way and you're going oh ok, it looks like oscar won't get fired. you have some _fan/fence in you. nothing wrong with that.

I'm honestly not trying to make this more than it is, but he was publically quoted as saying he understood why the whole staff was hired and he wasn't retained.

He isn't listed on Frank's original staff either:

Coaches
Frank Martin - Head Coach
Brad Underwood - Associate Head Coach
Matt Figger - Assistant Coach/Recruiting Coordinator
Lamont Evans - Assistant Coach
Mark Rodger - Athletic Trainer
Andy Assaley - Director of Basketball Operations
Scott Greenawalt - Strength and Conditioning Coach

Nor is he in the staff media guide section:

http://www.thestate.com/sports/college/university-of-south-carolina/usc-mens-basketball/article18154892.html

He isn't listed on Frank's original staff either:

Coaches
Frank Martin - Head Coach
Brad Underwood - Associate Head Coach
Matt Figger - Assistant Coach/Recruiting Coordinator
Lamont Evans - Assistant Coach
Mark Rodger - Athletic Trainer
Andy Assaley - Director of Basketball Operations
Scott Greenawalt - Strength and Conditioning Coach

Nor is he in the staff media guide section:

It just seems a little weird.

 Boynton at the press conference said he was with UCS for one year with Frank. Didn't seem like it was official tho.

Would any member of #teambid still hire Gottlieb if the ksumbb hc position was open?? I think I would. This might be me drinking the cool-aid though.

They're going way out on a huggs/frank/underwood coaching tree limb.

Today talking with Soren, Doug was definitely disappointed he didn't get the job, surprised as he really thought he was gonna get it, and he said he was"flabbergasted" at who they did hire.

He said from a human side, it's awesome for a 35 year old who has a family, and who is a minority, is getting a dream chance to get a HC job like this.  But he then said, Soren I really thought the job was mine.

Doug says he knows a ton of coaches throughout BB, and he doesn't know anything about Boyton.  He said when Holder told him they couldn't go with him because of the non-coaching experience, Doug just assumed that they had hired a guy who had previous HC experience.

Over oscar? Absolutely. Against the field this year? Maybe. Against the field in a different (read: better) year? Probably not.

I probably would because I know it would at least be an exciting and daring hire. However, for Doug to act "flabbergasted" that he didn't get hired as head coach at a P5 school with zero previous coaching experience is kind of asinine.

I would rather go after somebody who is currently either a top recruiter for a powerhouse or somebody like Steve Forbes. I wouldn't be upset if we hired Doug, but he wouldn't be my choice.

Do not want Doug.  Hell his own university took a pass on him to promote the assistant.  Steve Forbes would be great.

Doesn't mean they made the right choice. He's obviously a crapshoot, though.

Let say Mike and Evans elevate their recruiting and do an average job of developing players. Maintain a above average roster. In conference they stay around 5-7 wins do poor coaching / game planning. Is this a better way to stall a program than lets say what Weber is doing now? I know both are unintentional from an admin stand point.

I don't think you'd see an above-average roster go 5-13 to 7-11. Certainly not with any consistency.

That said, I'm a firm believer in always hiring the best recruiter available. Because the coach always leaves and you want the best possible roster for the next guy.

Yeah, people that talk about any coach "being here a long time" are dumb.

That depends. It's ok to want that, but should never be criteria considered when looking for a coach.

That's what I meant.

Between people saying they want a coach that will "stay a long time" or not firing a coach because "we could do worse", I'm not sure which is more annoying.

The latter because it absolutely makes no sense.
