Mizzou looking at Currie for AD
« on: February 22, 2015, 04:01:30 PM »


The longer Bruceketball circles the drain the less likely it is that Currie gets his big boi SEC AD Job.

If Mizzou offers I can see him taking it in a heartbeat.

Fun questions to ponder

1. Would this make it easier to ditch oscar? Could it move the timeline up a year?

2. How would currie get along with pinkel?

3. How would this effect KSU as a whole? Fundraising/more awesome buildings/snyder replacement etc...

4. What if Mizzou hires him, Currie fires Kim immediately and hires oscar?!?!

Well, this could be interesting.  I mean, they already don't give a crap about their bb team, so he would only have to focus on fb, rather than juggling like he rough ridin' cares.

He could move from job to job in a Beverly Hillbillies type pack and drive manner.  That would keep him from having to dress as a meth dealer or rapist at the first alumni dinner.  It would create that one-of-us images that he is so good at presenting.

IIRC he used the same search firm that got him the UPC job to find Currie; if accurate my money is on that

What a perfect situation for John Currie. Football is on cruise control, and whatever bball hire he makes will most likely be much better than Kim Anderson. He can focus on cleaning up Mizzou's image and making facility upgrades. He'd be great there.

Dr. Derrick Gragg.  Tulsa's AD.  Hired Philip Montgomery as FB coach and Frank Haith as BB coach.  I really don't think he'd hire a Frank Haith type here, but that was a good hire for Tulsa.  I listen to him once a week on my drive home.  He sounds like smart, personable guy.  Would definantly take.

What was the plan?

oscar's buyout is $2.5 million.  $100K/mo (first payment due immediately and then the rest over 24 months) but if oscar is employed by someone else coaching basketball that gets subtracted.  So I suggested we negotiate to find oscar another job and the other school gets oscar at a reduced rate.

I'd bet almost anything that Currie would never hire oscar again.
