I'm sure great coaches would be lining up to take over in the aftermath of firing coaches after tenures of three years and two years.
He won't be fired. Just hope for resignation.
Shaka Smart is the only "accomplished" coach we could hope to get. Either way, I would rather start over with a mid-major guy and hope for improvement than stick with I guy I am 99% positive won't improve.
Would we have a legitimate shot a star HC since the ACC is about to be better than the Big East in bball?
Would we have a shot at a coach like Wright?
Well... we couldn't get a coach that was any worse. So... we would have that going for us.
Get your tinfoil hats out:
Brad Stevens turns down the job the first time because of the "culture" of our program. [Redacted] is hired as the sacrificial lamb to clean things up and be terrible. Stevens comes in and saves the day.
Shaka. if that fails, go after guys who have had WINNING records and tournament wins.
But basically give Shaka whatever he wants.
