Re: Our current Guys haven’t portaled, officially.

Whoever ends up with the Gig, we will know right away what the players think. It will be very telling if we hired the right guy or not. I don’t know if that’s true… people left when smith came in, people left when Odom came in, and people left when sprinkle came in. I’d love to not lose any players...

Re: Sprinkle press conference at UW

Honestly, good for Sprinkle. I think he was genuinely fond of Utah state and would have stayed here for a while. But this is his dream job, he got paid a huge starting salary, with potential for more if he does well. He has as big of a budget as anyone for NIL. He’s basically been given the opportun...

I have heard that Mason, Great, and Ian have been invited by Sprinkle to go to Washington.
I bet they can’t wait. That’s gonna be a helluva dinner. What’s up with all these coaches and their dining habits? I get it if you’re invited though, never turn down free food.

Irony of not hiring assistants

The irony is that every outgoing coach we have one assistant coach really pushing for the job, only to go with a proven head coach at a lower level. Then we are upset when that coach is not loyal and jumps at the next offer… I am by no means saying we should hire an assistant, because what we’ve bee...

Honestly the committee won’t care if they have to give 1/2 of the conference invites. Look at the SEC this year. 8/14 members made it. Committee would easily give 16-18 spots to a 32 team conference.
Don’t look now, but the MW also had over half their teams in the tourney

Yeah, at this point it looks like we're turning over coaches every couple of years until we get on that sucks and we fire them after 3-4 years. We really need to get one to stay long-term with consistent success. Not winning the conference every year, necessarily, but competing for it.

Re: Sprinkle will gut the program

Well, Sprinkle did bring in all the players this last year. He's not gutting so much as he is just moving them all from one program to the next. I guess the blame still falls on Odom for us not having any players this upcoming year?
