Pretty sure Wood wasn't here when we hired Wilder. And be doesn't strike me as the do-it-by-committee type.

I've heard the players love him and while he was at Tech he somehow convinced DFS to go there. That's an effing miracle.

WOJO!

But we will be lucky to get him and even luckier to hold him more than three or four years if he is as successful as I would think he would be.

Hells no! If you were to screw a light bulb into that big mouth it would light up in a NY minute, which is about how long it would take for me to renounce my fanship of ODU mbb.

My guess is it comes from Villa and I would guess either Jeff Boales or Matthew Graves, leaning towards Graves.

Restore the Roar!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

R8R if you are referring to Villa 7, that program has closed shop.

I thought Teague took it with him to Minnesota.

I'm guessing Wood made some good connections and targeted some talent at last year's V7.

It looks that way:

Dr. Brett Reed should be the first guy we look at!

He took Lehigh from a 4 win team to the NCAA tourney in 3 years.

As long as it's someone that is younger and can better relate to the players, I'm in.

This. We all know this is a great job and should be an easy sell to recruits.

We had over 150 applicants for the Lady Monarch's HC job and a lot of good ones at that.

Yes Wood was at Villa 7 last year with Matthew Graves and Jeff Boales in attendance, I'm sure they spoke.

As long as Wilkes, Corrigan, and Richardson are still on staff I'll be ok.

Pretty sure JR is the only one that has a shot to return. Maybe I'm wrong.
