This may be Pollard's defining moment. He can't keep getting do overs.

hire billy g right now.

Not trying to be a Buzz Killingston, but this whole thing is likely going to be a mess in the short term.

With the state the basketball program was already in before the latest events, I'm okay with things getting worse before they get better.

FYI: One name you're certain to hear at ISU: Billy Gillispie. He has some fans in the administration, I'm told, from his Big 12 days.

He may have fans but there is no way this adminstration hires him.

can't see this happening....JP wants clean programs.

So you make the contract iron-clad that any slip up means your outta here with no compensation. Things like this can be negotiated around. Plus, if JP gives him a second chances, his act is cleaned up, and we succeed he looks like a genious.

And if you fail?

Come on now, we can't talk bad about Billy G. What if he's reading these boards? :biglaugh::biglaugh::biglaugh:

Then he needs to get a life.

Cart rapidly outpacing the horse in this thread:biggrin:

If he fails with any of these coaches his nuts are on the line. The risk reward is better to reach for a name then to make another safe hire.

Could you imagine him with a nice glass of scotch swirling around his one ice cube, reading Cyclone Fanatic in his study via 1999's webTV?

Failing is a chance no matter which coach we hire.

I like Bud Light when I read CF. When I drink while on CF you are all my drinking buddies and that means I dont drink alone, thus I dont have a drinking problem.

Except for my kid bein' born, this is the greatest night in the history of my life. I just wanna say one thing to my wife who's home: YO, ADRIAN! I DID IT!

Then you need to get a life if this is the second best night of your life.

Maybe Mac had been reading these posts this year?

I don't know about that. If CPR is successful he will still have some wiggle room. IN the end, hiring coaches is a crapshoot.

I hope we stay away from Mid Majors. AKA Iowa hire. Yawn. This could be a great place for a top program's assistant to get a chance to jump into a situation that is open to dramatic change.
