RE: Congrats to Sean Obi on making the C-USA All-Freshman Team
The body language of the players and some of the murmurings from players/parents makes me think that it's a sad reality that Obi could move on now that the season has almost concluded. You have to hope that our talented basketball players think enough of the school and their experiences outside of the program to stay. There certainly isn't much about the program that would keep anyone talented here. Obi has such tremendous upside, and would be a great centerpiece for a new coach to build around. I just hope that Dr. K. makes his decision on Braun very quickly so that Rice is one of the first names that coaches consider when the annual coaching carousel begins moving. If we wait until after the Final Four, we will have waited too long. So many decisions will be made over the next few weeks.

When Memphis hired Josh Pastner to replace Calipari, they really took a chance given some of the "names" they might have been able to hire. I wish we'd overlooked Braun and went after someone like Pastner the year before Memphis snagged him. To me, that is someone who would be optimal at Rice -- grew up in Houston, very familiar with Texas based talent/AAU programs, young, hungry and a solid basketball mind.
