This isn't really a great hire if you just rush to fill the spot after that letter. This obviously wasn't foreseen out very far.
Maybe its Gottfried and it'll be alright but hopefully people aren't getting their hopes up for some huge name like Brad S. or something4/5/2011 2:34:56 PM |

i think Gottfried might have coached a game against Herb in the RBC
i know i went to an Alabama game and we were down $texas and almost came back for the win, but Cozzzzzner missed a 3 at the end or something (this was sometime between 05-06) 4/5/2011 2:35:11 PM |

I wouldn't be upset about Gottfried. He did alright at Alabama and they're no powerhouse.

Lower expectations was covered. Maybe they were hoping to get a few more days to lure a better coach but had to go with the one guy that already committed after feeling out the reaction from the letter.
Quote : | "what exactly has he been doing for the last two years?" |
Being unemployed? Which is why he was the only one to say yes?

Pretty sure he banged some coed at Bama. He'll find the pickings at State markedly slimmer. 4/5/2011 2:36:18 PM |

Biggest is he's been out of the recruiting rounds for a couple of years, wonder how that will impact things. But if we're smart we'll keep Harris on again to keep working the recruiting. 4/5/2011 2:38:53 PM |

I guess I can get behind Gottfried. Looks like he will be an improvement over Lowe at least. Hopefully there will be a relatively short leash if he can't get it done. 4/5/2011 2:39:53 PM |

That's what he's been doing ever since he got fired. Hopefully he's recollected himself and will bring out a good strong team...if he's the coach.
