Ain't played nobody, PAWL!
Reports today say that State might just skip Mack and hire Pat
I hope not.
Reports today say that State might just skip Mack and hire Pat
Wes is already being talked about for the UNC job now--if he were to win in his next gig (whether he takes that this year or next): http://www.scout.com/college/north-carolina/forums/1410-basketball/15464713-wes-miller-to-uncw
Pat Kelsey took the UMASS job today. Is he still not a candidate for that job (as referenced above)?? LOL He was also a top candidate for the NC State job.
Wes Miller is a candidate at UNCW: http://www.nsjonline.com/article/2017/03/3-names-to-watch-in-the-uncw-coaching-search
Both Coaches should do well in the A10. If they do, we will have missed our window to hire either unfortunately. I could see Pat at IU, Ohio State, or Xavier one day.

Clown post.
Wake Forest didn't miss the window with either.
The last 3 UNCW coaches to leave for "better" jobs went to:
- DePaul (Wainwright in 2002)
- Wright St. (Brownell in 2006)
- State (Keatts this year)
Since Calpari left UMASS in 1996, the only coach to leave UMASS for a better job was Travis Ford to OK State in 2008. Don't make it seem like the next step from UMASS and UNCW is a top 5 program.
Both UMASS and UNCW are exactly the type of programs that Wake Forest or any other Power V program hires out of; see: Danny Manning from Tulsa and Skip Prosser from Xavier. Except for extremely rare exceptions, ACC schools do not hire out of low level D-1 programs like Winthrop and UNC-G.
We are all aware that stirring the pot is how you roll, but don't try to dish condescending crap on this board that WF lost its window because it didn't hire coaches at Winthrop or UNC-G. Weak.
When Miller and/or Kelsey explode at those jobs and they are looking at offers from Indiana, Xavier, Ohio State, UNC respectively and they take one of them instead of our job, you'll see. It's not a "clown post."
I want what's best for WF. It's clear WF and I disagree on how to get there. We'll see who is right in life. We should have been paying attention to Kelsey and Miller as they were right under our nose. We weren't. We need a fresh AD to look at this stuff. Wellman is a loser.

They will both be far too old in 4-5 years.

His ceiling as a coach is inversely related to the ceiling on the arena in which he coaches.
UNCW didn't join the A-10.
They didn't, they are in the Colonial Athletic Conference-CAA. It has The College of William & Mary, Towson, James Madison, Elon, etc
