Reynolds: Latest BU plan lifted from MO...

[srw]

Do you really think there are people who think JL should get a lifetime contract? I don't.

I would never have thought you would give him a 7 or 8 year extension but who am i

Hopefully there will be a lot of people involved in the hiring of a new coach, do not let our Pres. do this on her own.

although we had too many people involved last time......

It really should be the AD's responsibility....

[Buesch N Chips]

She can take a gamble, tell the wealthy donors who love JL no matter what to pound sand and find a new coach (if a vacancy is there),

Once again, do these people actually exist. Are there actually people who at this point think he is untouchable and want him as the coach no matter what forever and ever amen. I hear these people referred to all of the time, yet I have never met one.

Somehow I see HIM narrowing the list down to 2 maybe 4 and SHE makes the final pick.....

At the end of the day it doesn't really matter to me if JL tried a different tactic vs WSU the other day on the road. Why not try something different than what they used before in Peoria?

I didn't expect a depleted BU to compete with the top of the MVC this year.

What does bother me is BU hasn't been successful versus the bottom half of the MVC this year (so far).

Looking back, this shouldn't have come as a surprise since BU was picked to finish 5th in the Valley with 3 preseason All MVC players on its roster.

BU is suffering a worse fate than 5th in the Valley with only 1 of the preseason All MVC players left on its roster for 2010-11.

As shown by the preseason prediction of 5th in the Valley with a full team, the rest of the BU roster this year doesn't have the talent/experience to compete this year. Regardless of what the "Dean of the MVC Head Coaches" cooks up for this team.

BU has more chances this season vs ISU R, EU, SIU, and Drake so I will only offer a conditional statement.

If BU can't win 3 out the 4 games left vs these teams yet this season, the BU program needs LOTS more talent than just SM and TB back, and the recruits on board so far for next year to sniff the top of the MVC.

Im not worried about this..

BU is a quality job.

I want BU to have a coach leave for a better job. would be a great problem to have.

Don't lose faith in the school.

We made a bad hire, IMO, but I am confident we can make the next one better

Bad hire, emotional decision. But emotional decisions DID get me Butler in the final four of my Sweet 16 Bracket last year! haha.... Course I had Northern Iowa and Notre Dame playing for the championship.....
