    Coaching Choice POLL

    That is wishful thinking. No matter who the next coach is, just wait to the first Texas Tech or UAB debacle. Think it was bad with Fred? It will be off the hook with the new guy! Nobody from either the Otz or non-Otz camp will move on short of a perfect season!

    WILLIAMS: And the coaching search begins...

    Yes exactly. This has been happening a lot lately and according to their D.A. it does not sound legit. Lane County district attorney Alex Gardner announced in May that he would not be filing charges, saying there was "insufficient evidence to prove the allegations beyond a reasonable doubt."

    WILLIAMS: And the coaching search begins...

    Look I don't know if Altman has legitimate interest or not, but there are multiple reasons why he might. He is from the MIdwest. I don't think there is any doubt our basketball fan base is better the Oregon's while not having the Nike money. And there can be no doubt ISU has a bigger profile...

    WILLIAMS: And the coaching search begins...

    I'm actually an optimist and believe the team will be great. I think with Fred you could write the team into the NCAA tournament. I think there are a lot of variables with a new coach where it is possible the team loses some close games to a point they don't make the tournament. While I think...

    WILLIAMS: And the coaching search begins...

    Winning at a high level is never guaranteed...i.e. UAB. Only winning is "fun".

    WILLIAMS: And the coaching search begins...

    That is quite an assumption and one that the next head coach, whomever it is, better hope is true. Or this will be the shortest honeymoon in history.

    My Expectations Have Not Changed

    You are right and my expectations definitely have not changed. The fact that everyone knows we have a top 10 ten will immediately put whomever lands the job in a tough position. There will be no time for a learning curve. Win or find themselves on the hot seat immediately. Fred is in the same...

    Get on board with this team and this school.....

    I for one say good riddance. Dude couldn't coach a lick of defense.

    List of potential replacements should Fred Hoiberg leave

    If someone brought in another style and took us to a final eight or final four would you be that upset? Don't get me wrong i love the up-tempo style, but I just want to win. And if that means we have to sacrifice a bit of tempo to play better D I'm in. As long as we win!

    List of potential replacements should Fred Hoiberg leave

    Look guys, I really just want to see heads explode. But there is one guy left off the list that I am sure we can get. Dave Rice

    Regarding Andy Katz' Tim Floyd mention

    I do not care if it would be Floyd or LE or any other established coach. But to turn this top 10 team over to someone who has never been a head coach, like TJ, I think would be a mistake. I don't want someone learning on the job with the team we have coming back. Yes we took a chance on Fred and...

    Would you rather...

    Have a mediocre year in the big 12, barely make the tournament and make the sweet sixteen like UCLA? Or be 2nd in the conference and win the Big 12 tournament and go out early? Just interested in where everyone's priorities are. I personally could care less about anything but the NCAA tourney...

    BLOG: My bracket

    If we get to Duke we will beat Duke. The problem to me is getting to them. But if that happens I will feel confident enough to buy my final four tickets before that game.

    This League is Tough!

    But hey, we're going to the NCAA tournament 4 years in a row, so we should all be happy right? And it was just a fluke that a team got hot behind the 3 point line on us... oh wait. But I am sure we will learn from it just like South Carolina and Texas Tech. What a great learning experience. :mad:

    Officials tonight..

    Geez dude. Maybe you should take a few grammar lessons before you get all high and mighty about how much you know.

    Call your shot: record in last 6 games

    As much as I would love for this team to go 6-0, I would much rather that happen in the tourney. Plus I don't think they are ready for that type of run just yet. So I will say 3-3.

    BDJ's best game as a Cyclone

    Fair enough.

    BDJ's best game as a Cyclone

    Serious question I am not attacking OP. But do you feel the same way about Niang? He seems rushed, forcing things, and leads the team in turnovers by a fairly big margin. I am happy BDJ did seem more under control. I wish Georges would learn the same.

    Guess we have to love Gottlieb now

    Gotta watch Gottlieb. As soon as you warm up to him, he'll steal your credit card.
