Michigan Basketball: Who to hire... and who NOT to hire

[kl40504]

I kinda like this hire.

I guess you remember the cheating when he was part of the Fab 5. Cheating, right up your ally.

It is not common sense.
It is you living off in a reality created in your own head.

Cooley was the #1 target because he has coaching experience
If you listened to your AD he said he wanted a coach with experience because he believes he made a mistake at UCONN.

Cooley was the #1 choice based on this.
When Cooley was off the table they went elsewhere.

Truthfully they should have hired Yaklich. He was the reason your defense was elite.

The entire coaching search was poorly ran.

Howard was the number one choice which is the reason why Michigan didn’t offer anyone until he got an interview.

Howard was the number one choice which is the reason why Michigan didn’t offer anyone until he got an interview.

Not according to the parameters your AD set.
Howard never has been a head coach anywhere.

He said he made a mistake hiring Kevin Ollie because Ollie never was a HC before. The first thing he was looking for was HC experience.

Michigan even hired an outside firm to find a coach.
Guess who that firm considered the #1 target.
Ed Cooley.

Ed Cooley.

Howard was the top choice and Cooley was not going to get an offer before Howard even had his interview. Pretty simple.

Ed Cooley.

That firm considered Cooley because the guy running that firm happened to be Cooley’s AD at Boston College for 10 years.

juwan howard isn't even on that list. maybe he should have had a different category for hail mary's.

I guess I am too young.

 

[SheriffBufordTJustice]

Guess we should get an answer on Yaklich and Richardson by Friday.

Think Yaklich is most likely gone.
Don't know about Richardson.

I guess I am too young.

That's actually pretty funny.

Add naive and stupid so being young isn’t no excuse.

Give him time. His reading skills are coming along slowly but surely. Today, Peter Rabbit, tomorrow the world.

 

[VaultHunter]

Not only is it a hilarious choice it's hilarious Michigan fans think it was a good choice!

But hey that NBA player that thinks he's the GOAT when he's not even top 5 says it is so there ya go. Enjoy.

Agreed. I am with you, I would be much happier with Howard over a lesser candidate. He will have the fan support from day 1 as a Michigan legend in his own right and could prove to be a diamond in the rough. I would imagine he'll be a great recruiter at the very least. Kids relate to younger coaches with a wealth of NBA experience.

In the words of Mike Valenti (Detroit Radio Personality):

They (U of M fans) love to crawl up the ass of a good "Michigan Man." All sizzle, no steak.

Lol Mike Valenti is Michigan States Finebaum. He’s a complete turd.

Valenti loves MSU but he has no problem calling out MSU when it's deserved. I've heard him dog MSU football and basketball many, many times over the years.

That's more than can be said for the rest of the Detroit media, the entirety of which panders to Harbaugh and Michigan. Never a negative thing to be said about Michigan in order to protect their jobs.
