No he is not, Gene and co are going to want to run a clean program and he has all kinds of baggage.

Didn’t we hire a guy that was fired previously?

 Now people want a guy that was fired mid season? Woof

First of all wetwillie is 100% correct. Secondly, he was not fired, he legitimately quit. CBB writers close to him have said he's probably going to take a year off.

Quitting mid-season is very slightly better than being fired mid-season to me

It got real toxic there, yes, it was a situation that Mack created but it was pretty bad. Also the Louisville AD sucks ballsacks and taints.

Good Find dax

If you told me he was bringing Alvin BrooksIII  as AHC/first chair assistant I’d be beating the drum as loud as Dax for this guy.

[sonofdaxjones]

I’m not that big of a Stan for this guy.   But I think he’s a solid candidate if that’s the direction they head.

[wetwillie]

I’d still prefer Kim English but I wouldn’t melt down if it was McCasland.

the important question no one seems to be asking is who does gene keady like??

is Kim English a good coach? he's been a head coach for all of 1 season, is 8th in the A-10 with a 7-8 conference record. does not sound like a P5 ready coach to me

Yes he is a good coach.  UNT finished 9th and 7th  in CUSA first two years under McCasland and now he’s whipping ass.

Because he’s a lights out recruiter and we are in the high risk high reward tier of the P5 pecking order.  I’d take Underwood, Forbes, Mack or Miller but we are likely going to have to take a chance on someone who is not a sure thing.

English feels like a bit too much of a reach for me right now. But, would be happier w him than keeping oscar.
