Mike Rhoades hasn't finished higher than 5th in his conference in his college coaching gigs.
VCU went 25-8 and won the A10 last year

Agreed, we must do better than Mike Rhoades. It's been sixteen years since he's had any post season success. PASS
Travis Steele is not leaving Xavier to come to Wake Forest. Please. This isn't 20-30 years ago.
Putting aside the question of whether Wake is a better job than Xavier, Steele shouldn't be on the list. As a HC, he has one above-average season at Xavier (.500 in conference) and that's it.
We aren't going to draw the interest we did ten years ago, but this is still the ACC and Wake is still a very desirable gig. We can get a coach with a good track record. We just need an AD who can close the deal on said coach.

I'm wondering what is the current CFB comparator to the current state of Wake MBB (10 years of sustained futility with one outlier). Biff, what say you?
Naw. Horn can go too. Fake enthusiasm.
Horn is solid.
Noles issues with their football coach search should be a note of caution for advocates of firing Danny before spring.
I don't see any currently unemployed coach who would take the Wake job now.
I'm don't want any coach who would bail on his team during the season.
That would put Rex Walters or Childress as HC for the rest of the season. If Wake has a good season (.500 or better, mid pack ACC finish) under either one, how do you not keep him?
I am willing to take the pain for the next three+ months and jump on the carousel in the spring.
The next three months are homework time for Currie. Line up the funds. Evaluate replacement options. Prepare pink slip for delivery at conclusion of Wake's ACC Tournament "run."
The new coach will have a decent first year core in Chaundee, Mucius, Massoud and Sarr. I think Neath could be a solid player with good coaching. The cupboard won't be completely bare.
