You said it right there. "For a month". That's how long a staff gets these days apparently before you give up on their recruiting efforts.

A school that rejected by Porter freaking Moser is not gonna be in the mix for every top transfer. Thornton turned down Gonzaga for Boston College so it's not like there wasn't serious competition for him. But I guess it's obvious already that this staff can't compete so we should fire Anderson immediately and go get rejected by 6 more coaches before settling on the women's coach at NYIT. He'll get the good transfers in a week.

I am giving Anderson a pass on recruiting at this point with little time and not much left. The important thing is he has attended some key AAU events and made some offers to some blue chips for the coming years. He has begun relationships, something Mullin never did. Furthermore, the core has returned except Shamorie and Simon who both made very poor decisions plus we have some solid transfers set to play. I am not overly concerned and still think this can be a round of 32 team if all works out.

I believe some of the low level HS guys we brought in for depth will be transferring after next season if we have some real recruits lined up to replace the core. This I fully expect.

Everything here is totally false. Just a ridiculous post.

You should prepare yourself to be very very disappointed

That’s probably true. It’s nice to finally have a coach who is trying. Fun to be hopeful again. Everything else he said is true.

Yeah I agree with most of it and think Anderson has a pretty decent shot to succeed here long term. But I don't think next year's team is a realistic tournament contender. \

I actually thought Mahoney after that first year might be a good coach BUT it ended up being David Cain who was the good coach.

I thought Fran was going to be the coach that brought us to the next level BUT his head got too big

I thought Jarvis was going to be THE GUY after those first couple years and actually hoped he didnt take the Wizards job BUT he stopped recruiting

I loved the Lavin hire and that first year was one of my favorites as a season ticket holder. And his recruiting was off the charts that next year BUT then he got cancer. Then he recovers and starts landing recruits again BUT then we had that disappointing 2nd to last year BUT I was hopeful BUT then the Mary problems happened and he wasn't nearly the same recruiter

I loved the Mullin hire BUT really wanted Hurley and then he started sitting on the scorers table. Second year didnt bother me. Third year sucked BUT I was thought we would kill teams this year BUT I was wrong.

I'm hopeful but no way am I making predictions this year

We've had more Butt's over the years than an anal sex video.

Lavin recruited guys who didn’t qualify, jailbirds and a phony transcript guy. Snakeoil salesman

Two elite scorers is all you need. A good bunch of role players, which we have, should get the job done

Plus a coach who will establish a culture. And demand the players rebound and play defense. I predict a very good season.

Yup. He can coach

I think LJ and Heron could be a great tandem. Both move and finish well and LJ in particular if he looks to get others involved a little more. Heron was great with his catch and shoot and his pull up shots became pretty reliable. Was sort of like a guy that decides to swing before the pitch tho.

I'm referring to the mess that was 59-73 in 4 seasons overall and 20-52 in Big East play during that time.

Do you think that there are coaches we could have hired that would have turned the program around quicker than Mullin did considering the roster he fielded in his first season?

Does the mess you're referring to also encompass the surprising and shockingly strong bump in attendance we witnessed in Mullin's 4th season?
