  • Wardle to Iowa?


  • #2
    Wardle won't be going anywhere until he wins some NCAA tournament games, IMO.

    Yeah...I've been in college for a while now and I'm pretty sure that awesomest is not a word. -Andrew E.

      We're now posting about what some random talk radio guy posts on X as a rumor? This is the most clickbait-y thing I've seen in awhile. I hope this is removed. I could go out to social media and say that Cooper Flagg is going to forego being the #1 pick in the draft and he will transfer to BU next year. Doesn't mean my opinion actually matters or has any semblance of reality ...
      Go Braves!

          the Dayton fans (on their message board), anticipate their coach to make a jump to a P-5 team as soon as the end of the season since a couple of big time programs will be calling, He is a Miami native and a former assistant at University of Florida for a decade.
          - they're already listing & discussing Brian Wardle as one of their top choices to replace him. Dayton is currently paying their head coach twice what Bradley's been paying and their Athletic Dept budget is at least twice Bradley's.

          That said, I don't like discussing or speculating because we really love our coach and, of course, want him to stay. But if he is successful enough to get a far better offer, who could blame him if he moved on? I wouldn't and I would continue to be a huge fan of his wherever he goes (unless he some day lands at ISU )

            Yeah, but it’s Dayton, OH (I’m from Cincinnati). Please lord, let it be Iowa!

              Which message board?

                When everything is said and done, none of these coaches will go to Iowa. It's always like this: Speculation out the wazoo and someone else is chosen.
                My first BU hoops game was on 12/30/1963. My dad took me to watch the Braves defeat Arizona 67-59. He helped me get Coach Orsborn's autograph before the game.

                  I would agree. I'm sure is name is already on some lists but for him to jump to a quality bigger program he will need either consistent NCAA tournament appearances or make a deep run one year.

                    Word is, Jim Les is being considered to replace BW if he leaves BU.

                      You always have the inside scoop, MM.

                        There’s about 4 other coaches on that list that make more sense for Iowa than Coach Wardle.

                          I don't see 0-1 in the NCAA tournament in ten years getting him to Iowa.

                            I suppose if somehow if we made a run to the Elite 8 or better, that might change the equation. However, I totally agree outside of that.

                              Actually - getting bigger offers has happened a lot to MVC coaches despite little NCAA success.
                              Josh Schertz, Tim Jankovich, Keno Davis, Greg McDermott, Matt Painter and others made jumps from the MVC without winning any NCAA Tourney games.
                              Altman hadn't won an NCAA Tourney game in 9 years when he jumped to Oregon,
