I would have been cool with Barnes

I would have grown to accept Calipari even though he's Italian (and all Italians are dirty guido bastards)

but now we're talking about ESPN analysts, unproven mid-majors and coaches who are contracted until 2012....it's really getting entertaining


I LOVE how Prick Pride was saying "Cal is a lock" and "Cal is great" 2 days ago and last night were saying "who needed Cal anyways" and "he is a mediocre coach"

4/12/2006 9:00:00 AM

I am amused that we keep getting used like a stripper from the drity dirty Durham

4/12/2006 9:02:52 AM

i'll be really amused if Fowler still has a job when this is all over...
of course, amused = confused and pissed

4/12/2006 9:06:47 AM

Y'know, I'd always rather see us win then feel vindicated on a message board.

But that's just me.

4/12/2006 9:08:56 AM

Why though?

Fowler went after two 'big fish' like everyone wanted. He offered to WAY WAY overpay both of them given their accomplishments and they STILL did not want to come. How is that his fault?

I'm not amused by the search but more like shocked one of those 2 didn't come given the ridiculous amount of money we're throwing around...

4/12/2006 9:13:53 AM

^ you're where, about 3 inches below the soil?

4/12/2006 9:16:27 AM

guess this great prestigious coaching position isnt so highly regarded after all.

I'm only amused because it's sad.

I don't know which is more disappointing. Not having our Top 2 coaches come here or losing in the Sweet 16 every year with 7 Mcd'S AA's on the team..

V last I checked Elite 8>Sweet 16.. and 1 McD's AA <<< 5 McD's AA's

** haha and do you really want to get into an Athletic Department ethics contest right now??

[Edited on April 12, 2006 at 9:23 AM. Reason : haha]

4/12/2006 9:18:11 AM

or losing in the elite 8 with a convicted felon running the offense to a MID-MAJOR???????

sure, i'll stack duke's up against state and uconn any fucking day of the week

they are tossing around Archie's name on Prick Pride for interim coach

4/12/2006 9:27:53 AM

i just dont understand why the folks over on PP want an interim coach

who is gonna be available 2 years from now that would make that worthwhile

and isn't archie like 25 years old, with 0 head coaching experience, that is just ridiculous

4/12/2006 9:31:27 AM

^ agreed, fuck archie

4/12/2006 9:32:39 AM

I can coach

4/12/2006 9:34:20 AM

No.

Based on Archies coaching experience, hge would implement something far different from Herb.

4/12/2006 9:38:36 AM

i'm just gonna throw this out there.......

BiggzsIII has the gayest "signature" EVAR!!!

4/12/2006 9:54:00 AM

While it has been a roller coaster ride, you guys do realize that this sort of thing is pretty commonplace.

Carolina went through every name on the list before settling on Matt Doherty. Nebraska went through like 10 coaches after getting rid of Solich. Those are just two off the top of my head.

Oh yeah, ASU was searching for a month before it "found" Herb.

We've been through two coaches on our list and around two weeks. Chill.

4/12/2006 9:57:31 AM

Not for nothing but the 2 examples you used are commonly looked upon as absolute disasters..

[Edited on April 12, 2006 at 10:00 AM. Reason : I still think we'll do much better then those.]

That isn't helpful. We don't need a Matt Doherty...

"Why though?"

because the man has allowed himself to get jerked around now by two different coaches...
one i can deal with, but two is unacceptable even for a State fan...

4/12/2006 10:20:28 AM

In typical terrible ncsu fan fashion, i dont care about what is normal. I just want a coach.

4/12/2006 10:35:11 AM

Interim coach is the worst idea I have ever heard.

It might work in the NBA, where they don't have to recruit, but if you were a high school kid would you go to a school KNOWING the coach that rectuited them won't be there.

On ESPNs Page2 today

Quote :

"I'm kind of impressed with John Calipari's loyalty to his Memphis assistants, which is reportedly the reason he turned down a sweet offer to jump to NC State, despite ... well, let's review: • Better conference • Better program "brand" • Much more money The fact is: Calipari will never have a better situation at Memphis than this past season -- Top 5 team, conference champ, NCAA Tournament No. 1 seed. Yet he was still marginalized as managing a second-tier program. (Curious why NC State got hung up on compensating Cal's assistants. When you're making a multimillion dollar play for a big-name coach, isn't the rest just details?)"

4/12/2006 10:37:38 AM

^If thats true, Fowler and everyone seriously fucked up

4/12/2006 10:41:11 AM

why is john kruk still posting??

4/12/2006 10:56:24 AM

I'm just saying that we're still far away from being on the same level of those two coach finding "disasters" and that we're not nearly the laughing stock of the ACC and nation that some of you may think.

Sure, it's been a wild emotional ride for us but for most people, all they see if a few headlines that amount to Herb leaving us and two great coaches in great situations turning us down.

I sure wouldn't call it futility or a disaster quite yet.

4/12/2006 10:59:14 AM

4/13/2006 12:44:19 AM

I <3 a good john kruk thread

4/13/2006 12:47:18 AM

yeah, the situation is getting absurd.

4/13/2006 12:48:22 AM

kinda funny, moreso irritating

4/13/2006 12:52:15 AM

i thought this would get locked before the 5th post

whodah thunk it would get to 2 pages?

4/13/2006 12:54:17 AM

my sources say it will make it to 4 pages, but if they are the same as yours it might not be correct.

4/13/2006 1:00:26 AM

4/13/2006 1:02:34 AM

i'm really starting to think that we'll have to settle for Haith

and THAT would be a downgrade from Herb

4/13/2006 9:25:15 AM

i used to think that was true, but haith has potential. if he can recruit like everyone seems to think he can. he had a good situation at texas, so his true ability is yet to surface. i'm not saying he's not good though.

that said, i'd still rather have gillispie or marshall over haith

--the more i think about it though, the more i like haith as well. he's already been in the acc for 2 years, and miami sucked before he got there. he isn't afraid of a challenge, and he's already beaten roy more than herb has. the only thing that concerns me is is willingness to jump ship from miami so soon. hopefully there's reasons for him to be unhappy there or something, otherwise i'd be worried about him doing the same thing here.

i'm warming up to haith

[Edited on April 13, 2006 at 9:31 AM. Reason : ]

4/13/2006 9:28:26 AM

aren't there any more big names we can go for?


I thought the whole point of running my man out of Raleigh was to get an A-list coach

there's gotta be somebody else before we get into a bidding war with A&M or settle for a tiny conference coach or hire a lifetime assistant whose teams are led by volleyball players

4/13/2006 9:33:49 AM

I thought Haith sighned a contract extension yesterday
