Yes his pathetic 607-149 record is not cutting it. I would fire him right now.
He also ONLY has 2 national titles.When the people fear their government, there is tyranny; when the government fears the people, there is liberty. -

I agree for the most part, but Bill Carmody is not a good recruiter at all. Former Wildcat Tavaras Hardy has taken over their recruiting, and they've landed several players that Carmody initially dismissed because he didn't think they'd fit his style.Originally posted by Da Coach View Post
The man to thank for that is not Bill Carmody. Carmody is one of the best X's and O's coaches in the game, but a brilliant recruiter he is not. No, the man behind Northwestern's recruiting awakening is 29-year-old assistant coach and NU alum Tavaras Hardy, who also landed super sophomore John Shurna. When I reached Hardy by phone recently, I asked him how he went about selling Northwestern basketball.
"Northwestern is actually a great product to sell in many ways, because we're in the Big Ten, we have great academics, and we're right next to a great city, Chicago," Hardy told me. "But we don't have a tradition of winning championships, and our facilities aren't as good as many other Big Ten schools. So we're trying to get kids to look beyond that. We're saying to them, ‘Come here, get an incredible education, play early, and be part of history — be part of something special.' But it takes a special kind of young man to buy into that, and we have to work that much harder and be that much smarter about recruiting."
His hard work has paid off, as the Wildcats are now in the mix for a handful of top 150 players.
Onward and Upward!

I don't believe I'm the one that said.......Originally posted by ER3 View Postwonderful example. Yeah, you totally get it.
"Good coaches are good coaches."
"Good coaches win."
"The will win wherever they are."
Those seem like blanket statements to me. Just thought I'd point out a GREAT coach that doesn't seem to be winning much these days. I'm sorry you don't agree.???People say, ???Forget last year', but I want our guys to remember that one, because that will not happen again. We will be much better.??? Geno Ford, 9/22/12Comment

Who are you KIDDING?Originally posted by shaunguth View Post
It IS a blanket statement...as said previously his record is 607-149 for his career. He's a winner....Good coaches win...what else do you want? He might not be at national championship level again but that's because they're ravished by the NBA draft. Not a bad problem or season to have in my book. Once every 5 years to take a break because everyone went to the NBA.Comment

$400 K is pretty good for a mid-major...???We all want Bradley to win. If our methods and visions for that are different, then so be it. Don't ever attempt to tell me I am not a fan!???Comment

All this talk about coaching change is silly right now. When the AD feels we need to change a coach I'm sure he will....until then I won't worry or speculateComment

Pretty modest T, WMYAFE? (Note F=Freakin)Originally posted by tornado View Post
T, I am sure the new BU AD would appreciate your insight into who wouldn't be better at coaching BU than where the incumbent currently has BU...which is .500 and falling, swept by ISU, and finally, heading into a play in game after 8 years on the job.
I would go so far as to say you or Da Coach may be able to get more wins for BU than the incumbent.
I suggest you might not have looked very hard (or at all) for a possible suitable replacement for the incumbent that would meet your high standards/expectations. JL adoration is a powerful force.
Nice posting touch, though, blast posters for not bringing you a potential candidate that meets your expectations/requirements for more success than the incumbent, while declining to enlighten us with your criteria for determing if a potential candidate will meet your expectations.
Cue the band, the Titanic is taking on water.BUilding for the Future

According to a Scout report last semester, Les got paid $400,000. Glasser was in the $430,000 range. Unless your implying that his base salary is higher than $400,000? I'm sure it is higher with his Better Banks commercials and such.
