If I had a choice I would have gone after the young coach at VCU, Anthony Grant. VCU has a history of putting out successful coaches & he already had a ton of success at VCU. Bama snagged him last year though. IMO we need to go after a young up & coming guy. I don't want Few but at this point I'd rather have him than Kent.

Re: pathetic
I've offered up Brian Gregory before and I still think he should be near top of list. He's proven he can be a head coach and get a lot out of his talent. He also had a 91% graduation rate last year. He's a disciple of Tom Izzo and a lot of Izzo disciples have done well historically. He's a better option than Few I think. If I were Few I'd stay in Gonzaga anyway.ducksrock wrote:OR, Imagine if they dont....We have a grand NEW arena coming on board next year..It might be a good thing to be able to win a game in it.....I like EK, but more as a player, than as a coach...I have seen both sides of that coin.......Its just time that we move on though....He has had some quality players, but not a competitive team...pudgejeff wrote:I actually liked that coach too and if he had been chosen I would have still been upset because I don't think he's an upgrade, atleast it still wouldn't have been Few or an unproven assistant...My biggest thing is not only has Ernie brought in talent we've never had before he's also made sure each kid graduates which is a rarity in college sports, although it should be the most important part since it is called college sports...If you remember guys like Freddie and Aaron weren't anything but potential until they're senior years...Imagine if these young men blossom in the same way together.dthomas=ddixon wrote:That's not our job.
