Geiger didn't consider Huggins the first time and he wasn't going to consider him this time IMO.

If there are NCAA problems, he won't be expected to win right away. Besides, I don't think Bob Knight is scared of anybody or anything.

Yeah, let's sue Brandon Joe cause he got a DUI...this is insane. Do you realize what a stupid move it would be to sue OB? Do you think that he wouldn't be able to dig up some dirt or allege dirty things? That would be suicide, not to mention stupid. The penalty for breaking rules is...

OB was making about 850K IIRC.

Katz: Matta or Waters would come to OSU http://sports.espn.go.com/ncb/columns/story?columnist=katz_andy&id=1819347

Sorry ;) I guess if I could vote again I'd go with Devin Jordan. Him and Zwick have a great connection I'm sure.

I voted for Hollins, but he's not young, he's inexperienced.

Cleamons' career as best as I can piece it together: --assistant at Furman(years?) --assistant at OSU(years?) --head coach at Youngstown St 87-89 --assistant with Bulls 89-96 --head coach of Mavericks 96-97 and first 18 games of 97-98 --1998, head coach of woman's ABL team in Chicago...

Cleamons: "I would be excited by the opporunity" Interest is a prerequisite, I suppose. Like I said, Knight and Cleamons are my choices, even if they might not be all that realisitic. http://www.dailybulletin.com/Stories/0,1413,203~25387~2203025,00.html

Here is a thread where I pasted an article about her. The comments on OB are dated, but were based on what I knew at the time. My conclusion about her undercutting him publically when his real boss was strongly backing him are still the same as they were then, as she was talking about on-court...

O'Brien has not recurited a Yugoslav player since Savovich, Rasjevoafj or whatever his name is, and Ockoloich.

There is a compliance director. Her name is Heather Lyke-Cantano and she lettered in softball for scum and is mentioned as a possible candidate for the AD job if Geiger retires. Draw your own conclusions.

I personally don't support getting rid of Geiger(heck, he'll probably get rid of himself--retire--in a couple years anyway), but for the people out there who blame Coach Tressel for players getting in trouble(there are not that many on this board but there are elsewhere), you have to blame...

There is no denying that GW has done a great job at Maryland. But he did not do a great job at OSU IMO. In his first year, we made the NCAAs and went 20-13, won one game in the tourney. The second year...20-13, NIT. The third year...19-15, NIT. He was not making huge strides(it should be...

Knight agrees in principle to three year extension. Deal not finalized but unfortunately it looks like it would preclude Coach Knight coming to OSU. http://www.redraiders.com/stories/060904/mbb_060904007.shtml

If someone really believes that OSU is a job they could hold for 15 or 20 years they might be willing to endure 2 or 3 years of NCAA sanctions. I'm sure Geiger knows a lot about how the investigation will turn out and will be able to tell them what is likely.

Sue O'Brien? Good grief, where does this stuff come from? He violated the terms of his contract, he got fired. That's the penalty. I'd prefer hiring a lower stature head coach then somebody's assistant coach. That approach has worked well IMO--Tressel, Cooper, Bruce, Woody, OB, etc...

I suggest the Gary Williams lovers take a look at his record at OSU and compare it to O'Briens. 1 NCAA Tournament in 3 years and he's the standard? No conference championships? Come on now.

Oh, please. No commits ever demcommit from other schools? You can't be serious. The reason it seems like OSU has a lot is because we follow the minutia and the details of every OSU recruit. If you did the same for other schools, you'd see they have the same kinds of things happen.
