Topic: Recruiting for Basketball

[Haveyouherd222]

We will be better this year, and I know what I know, but the staff can't wait until years 2 and 3.   Our NIL momentum is building, and we're going to have the capability to build our roster in a much different fashion.    You can watch from home if you want too, but if I had the chance to get tickets, I would.

Some of you still think you are building teams by saying year 2-3. Year 2 will be tougher than this year. He won't have Oak and Martin to build around. He will basically be recruited an entire team year 2. This is the year he needs to succeed.

I don't think Obinna and Martin are the prototypes Corny will expect to build a team around, I expect they'll both be mid to bottom tier of the players we'll see in Green and White soon.  Don't get me wrong, they both work hard, but they are at best, mid level mid major players.

Not saying they are all world. But they are better than anyone he has got so far. We are struggling to get guys period. Talk is cheap!!! I sure hope  we do start getting better than those guys.

I have had season tickets for decades until last year when I dropped them. You could see that train wreck coming a mile away. I'll be back if CJ gives me reason to come back. It's simple as that.

How did you reach that conclusion based on the lack of results we presently see from Corny?

[herd2win]

Have we seen anything in the 2 months of Corny that would make us believe he was the correct choice?  We hired an assistant off of a losing team to replace the head coach of the same losing team.

Not one other team would have given Corny the reigns of their program.  I wanted to move on but I also hoped the new coach would be similar to Coach Caldwell and energize the team.

A bright spot is Fulford. The guy's track record is outstanding in recruiting and W/L record.

[herdfan93]

Fulford is much more qualified for the HC position.  Will he be made coach in waiting?

Don?t let the door hit you going in .

We lack scorers.  Needs to come up with 30-40ppg between these last 2 scorers.

This is a fan board not a non-fan board.  If you do not want to get tickets don't.  But don't make it an issue with everyone else.

Some fans don't always swallow what they are fed. Some fans want better and don't just lay down money and accept what they are fed. But we can still be a fan and want better.

[herd2win]

You can be a fan and not be a cheerleader.  Fans are allowed to be critical and always should be.  Fans want what's best for their team.

That's my thinking. Fulford has the best resume on this staff by far. He may get a shot if Corny doesn't work out.

i don't get Landon's  articles this morning with headline "Does MU hoops need more players?"

seems as if he writing to only people who don't follow Herd hoops or don't know anything about college basketball.  of course you fill all 13 scholarships and add a NIL/walk on or two!  this is strange behavior even for him.

Or better known as his kind of people.

You do realize most of the time transfers numbers fluctuate based on style of play, minutes played etc... No guarantee that if we get 2 guys who average 18 points a game that they average 18 here and just because a guy averaged 7 somewhere else does not mean he can't get 12 a game here.

Turned your back on the program quicker than you changed your narrative on you buddy Dan...incredible stuff

Bust does not care he is just trying to prove a point.

I know several longtime ticket holders who have dropped/dropping their season basketball tickets. Some have told me that that were taking a wait and see attitude and others are just not happy with the new coach selection process. It is their and money and I don't think it is anyone business what they do with their money.

Come on FT2, bighead says follow blindly and lay your money down. Personally I hope CJ tears it up and wins about 5 straight SB championships. But up to this point there isn't anything exciting happened. Maybe that will change?

As anyone should have and most did. I gave Dan longer than I should have while he run a kindergarten program. But I even I had had enough. The one thing I will give CJ credit for is he is recruiting harder in one year than Danny did in 10. Now it's whether he can seal the deal.
