Miller, Pearl, Smart and Marshall are Grand Slam hires.

We are not hiring any grand slam coaches. We need to face the hard truth and not waste time with wishful thinking.

Why not?

I think we could get a pretty solid coach & probably could have when JP was hired with an effective search process (hoping for much better next time) but .......the money jar is currently empty so we won't hire any coach good or bad for at least one more season. If we win 17 or less games, bow-out early in the NIT this year & next, then maybe we get a new coach. But JP WILL get another year (unless the players just lay down this year) & get a chance to coach the Lawsons with what he has coming back. And if performance is improved JP is probably around for several years.

Has Bowen publicly supported JP and said he will be our coach next year?
