Guards make college basketball go. If you don’t have one you go home early. 
 

TJ Ford

DJ Augustine

 Cory Joseph

Avery Bradley

Daniel Gibson

Marcus Carr

Isaiah Taylor

 

Hope Miller focuses on  big time PGs 1st and combo guards 2nd as the priority over wings and bigs. It is hard for big men to dominate the college game when they are so reliant on post entry from the guards.

    Once again, this was a situation in where the top 5-10 in the sport just were not going to leave. They have their programs rolling and at a high level already. Those coaches get whatever they want fro

Sounds like Swain is coming here next week to visit?

Ohio State might have botched their visit. That's a shame.

isaiah taylor was the man. god i loved that guy. if he’d have played for beard or barnes he’d have been an all american. yes, an all american. not 1st or even 2nd team, but he had BIG XII POY talent and potential. such a waste of talent and heart playing for that dumbass shaka. IT was the absolute perfect PG to run havoc, but nope. we had to do some brand new shit. and then on top of that you have the likes of demarcus holland and prince ibeh on the team as well and you *still* don’t run havoc?!? jesus christ shaka. every time i remember this shit i get all angry all over again. fucking loser.

isiah taylor at texas:

2015- 4.2 (broke his wrist, off year)

2016- 5.9

 

that was by far the most underrated part of his game. that guy willed us to victories with his heart and his pointed desire to get to the rim and in doing so, get to the line as well. ended up shooting 82% his final two years. we haven’t had anybody even close to him in that regard since then. definition of “dog”.

 

So, Miller pretty much just hired his a bunch of his family as assistance, and his existing Xavier assistant coaches?

Would have hoped to see him bring in a hardcore #2 defensive coach. Cream of the crop kinda guy.  $$

shaka brought all of his assistants when he came to Texas. they led us to an 11-22 season with a tourney level roster. conversely, chris beard went and got bag men from larry brown and bill self when he got the Texas job (not to mention that he took donewald and mark adams with him to ole miss). im with you. i am not gruntled by these “hires”. there’s a reason that so many of the biggest pricks you’ve ever met win titles- they’re cutthroat. let’s hope that miller knows what he’s doing.

Worth noting that David Miller is a son of a former NBA assistant coach and is not related to Sean.

Also, one of Xavier's assistants (Dante Jackson) is staying there under Pitino, and Gerry said he is watching for Brandon Chappell (hired by Beard) to be retained.

Taylor played under Barnes for two years and under Shaka for one. And the only assistant Shaka brought from VCU was Murrell. Cason and especially Darren Horn were well regarded. I'm not attacking you just correcting the record.  You allow your hate for Shaka to color your memory with some Foxnews level accuracy.

I am glad about this. I have always liked him and by the way, his son is a great player and ranked #7 in the state.

I dont get it

He's still playing basketball in the NBA, right? How the hell can he be an Assistant GM too?

He's basically just putting $1 million into their NIL and being the face of OU Basketball.  Make some appearances, talk to recruits and portal players, etc. 

Same with Curry at Davidson.

Assisstant GM - AKA "Gladhander" when he has the time.

It’s leveraging the star power. KD needs to drop some coin and be the face for Texas for recruits

i read that Texas, along with Tennessee and Purdue have already offered Bo Ogden.

Wasn’t Ogden himself ranked pretty high when he was being recruited?

Not shocking, but Ogden is basically being groomed to be the permanent steward for basketball and possibly CDC replacement down the road.  

I have met and been around Chris a few times back in his playing days and he is a great guy.

And yes he was a great player from Seminole but kind of got lost on the depth chart. However he had some great moments and his no look pass was Bird-esque.

Got it. Just seems odd to give him an official title when he can give the program money and shake recruits' hands without a title.

That’s a big start to Miller’s time here.

He was one of Beard's bagmen, along with Jerrance Howard who was Bill Self's bagman prior.

Losing a bidding war iin this particular situation is not the worst thing because Miller is the best coach to assess Conwell's true value.

Guessing this doesn't mean Mark which means he may be entering the portal soon?

I thought he was OK -- he certainly wasn't as articulate as Sark.  That's a high bar, though.

scattershooting:

was the sark decision cdc or eltife or ?

was the milller decision cdc or ? or ?

i think we should have publicly money whipped multiple proven options and made a show of it

apparently the portal calendar made that not publicly possible

and what happened privately we'll never know

cdc is getting the credit for 2 of 3 successful hires in the $ jobs

i think miller is not the right decision

in cdc we trust

ok, then

Hated the hire at first but now I see it being successful hire.  We don’t really moneywhip for coaches.  We do it after they’re successful here.   Aggy money whipped jimbo and it compromised their baseball and football hires

I don't think we do it for the big 3 but I do think we do it for lesser sports.
