Hows that style of coaching working out for K-State? Sorry, but LE is a MUCH MUCH better option than Nurse.
Good ISU Candidate List

I just want someone who is passionate about the university and can sell me on his passion like Rhoads. IIRC, the majority of us weren't overly excited about Rhoads, but it's turned out alright so far. We'd all like to be excited about it, but in the end I don't care. I just want someone that can win
I have been saying MARK MONTGOMERY since January this year. Michigan State Assistant Coach.

Now with Grayer...(Flint, MI) connection....they can bring top players from Michigan just like Orr did. This is my thought for the AD-

If were looking at assistant coaches from Purdue, I would throw Paul Lusk in the mix.

What has brian gregory done at Dayton....nothing at all....Probably a good coach would be Todd Bozeman, who coached up Cal with Jason Kidd, Tony Gonzalez in the mid-90's...
He can't even get his team in the NIT after six years, while sober, and a couple NAIA teams on the schedule every year.
What FM is doing at KSU is not really relevant. The issue is how that style of coaching worked out for LE the last time he was at ISU, and why it would be different this time around.
Why is LE a "MUCH MUCH" better option than Nurse?
LE was also responsible for quite possibly the most embarrasing MBB loss in ISU history. At least CBS wasn't rerunning the low-lights as much this year...

People dont actually think Greg Gard would be good do they?? he does not excite me at all. but idk thats just me
You're forgetting the 25-point butt-pounding Steve Alford delivered to Larry in Hilton; making it one of the worst losses in Hilton history.
oh, and Not to mention the 1st round loss in the NIT that Alford also delivered on Larry-'Can't Travel with the Team" - Eustachy.
Thanks Larry; continue in your mediocrity at So Miss.
More questions, no answers - What about Otzelberger, Nurse and Grayer? My sense is that they are seen as good assistants - should they stay? Is Otzelberger worth a shot at head coach? Will they go to Creighton?
Do you really think Iowa couldn't afford Gregory? You have to be joking, right?
The truth is, Gregory was very interested in the Iowa job, but told Barta he wouldn't speak to them until their season was over. Barta didn't want to wait until their NIT run was over, so that was that.
That is a very nice list. Many solid candidates. Only a few on there like Sutton and Moore that have me thinking, whaaat?
ISU is still a GOOD job, and with the new practice facility, we are in a great position. It is relatively late in the year, but I think that lists clearly demonstrates there are a lot of alternatives -- despite the wailing from the crowd that we couldn't do any better. We can and we will. Ray or Montogomery would be great gets.
It is a good list. But I feel strongly that there is absolutely no reason we can't get a great coach that is currently a successful head coach. I hope we put the full court press on one of these successful head coaches!
