Man those black road uniforms are ugly. Matches the caliper of play.
After listening to the cornering the AD segment, I am pretty convinced Hinson was gone had that score stayed where it was at halftime against UNI. It'll be interesting to see what happens over the next day or two.
You are correct. That being said I don’t think they will can him until March now
I mean if you were going to do it after getting smoked by 20+ one game ago, don't understand why you wouldn't do it now...I guess Loyola is supposed to be better than UNI, but still showed the same lack of energy and effort in the first half with zero in game adjustments. This time the opposing team didn't collapse in the second half and our guys just didn't have the energy to spend again. I mean this is probably the 7th straight game where they have had a terrible first half and they can't seem to get it corrected. If that isn't cause for a shake-up I don't know what is.
Its getting late in the year. Change would have to be tonight or just wait until after the season.

If Coach Kill wants to make sure he gets to make a change it needs to happen now or in the next day or so. If you give Barry any rope at all he's liable to win three or four in STL and then the Pro Barry crowd will howl if he is let go. If you do it now, no one can really say anything. Yeah, its not ideal but its decisive and final. You finish out the year with Beane as interim head coach and let the staff go after the Valley Tourney. Even if for some reason they won the tourney with the interim it would essentially have no weight. We need to hire the best coach available. If Bryan is it then great, but we need to look around. Wouldn't hire Kyle as the whole Juco thing is completely different then D1 basketball. Its a tough task...So many of these assistants at top programs appear on paper to be good but you don't really know if they were the lead recruiter and you don't know about game management and temperament. If there is anyway they can find someone with successful head coaching experience at the D1 level who might even have been fired and is now an assistant I might look there first. Trying to hire the head guy from Murray or Buffalo or somewhere like that is not likely as they will be looking to move higher than the Valley. We certainly shouldn't put an " Must have SIU ties" restriction on this hire. We need the best candidate whoever that might be. Let Barry go now, and the process can begin. And no, not Kent Williams. He was not taken to the west coast and there is a reason that he is no longer with a major college or even low major program. So no, lets go a different direction.
Kill sent me an e-mail saying it was a "very complicated situation"

It is only a complicated situation if you are a poorly run university... so yea I guess it is complicated. For a high functioning university it would have been pretty simple. Hell it would have been pretty simple 2 years ago at a school worth a damn

that is very concerning.... What did your email say?
In a perfect world what do you all think of this coaching staff?
HC- Bryan Mullins- alumni, Final Four as an assistant, sweet sixteen as a player, really speaks for itself.
AC1- Kyle Smithpeters- alumni, done an excellent job at the JUCO level, would likely bring his top talent from JALC during the transfer years.
AC2- Ant Beane Sr.- Keeps Darius in town and possibly adds Jimmy Beane next year, he's a solid recruiter and the players like him.
AC3- John Clancy- This guy knows the game of basketball, knows Chicago better than anyone and anyone who's followed the program the last few years knows how vocal, motivating and good for the program he has been.
I hope you are right. Add Ken Moses from Missouri State Univ - West Plains to that staff. He's the fiance of the Marketing lead.
If any of the current staff is retained it will be up to the new coach. If they get their top target the answer would be none of them
Did kill sound like he is done with barry?
You sound like you have some info BK.....
Nobody concerned about the it's complicated thing? I don't like that he said that...
