ttun basketball (Juwan out, Dusty May in)

I saw some ESPiN stuff about this on the tv over the bar at lunch. No sound but plenty of grainy video's of the fab 5 and how this might help heal some bad blood within the fab 5.

Not a lot of discussion, by the looks of it, about the 2019-20 tsun basketball program.
Jabrill Peppers Syndrome.

Q: Can he play football at an NFL level?
A: He can do a backflip

really hoping juwanna somehow gets unc's seventh woods to commit. woods is probably going to usce rather than gonzaga or ttun, but the skunkbears are nonetheless a possibility for an extremely underwhelming guard. dfbia would find howard's first commitment (albeit a transfer) as a big ol' sprayfart.

I'd prefer he never gets anyone to commit and they lose so often that they quit the fucking sport then close down the university, raze every building and salt the earth.

I mean, if we get to pick and all

I don't know if there's anything funnier in coaching change history.

DFBIA loses their actual good coach
DFBIA thinks they'll lure Billy Donovan to town
DFBIA realizes that aint happening, so they delude themselves into thinking Shaka Smart is almost as good (he's not)
DFBIA thinks they'll steal Smart from Texas
Smart comes up to Michigan
DFBIA thinks it's to interview for the HC job
Michigan thinks it's to interview for the HC job
It's actually to steal Michigan's program changing defensive coach away
Smart steals said coach away
DFBIA ends up with Juwan Howard.....who they think is good despite absolutely zero coaching history to speak of

Solid hire.

IDK about that. Is old Phil Martelli going to bust his balls recruiting for UM? That is what they really need the assistants to do. Or they are admitting that Howard can't actually coach and they have a puppet regime?

Not too long ago, Martelli took a hard line against letting one of his players transfer, which was a really bad look and can't help in recruiting. I do not see this hire as a good one.

It looks like Howard will have one college assistant among his assistant coaches, Saddi Washington. Also hiring Howard Eisley from the NBA. Probably a bad staff grouping when recruiting and relationships are most important.

Eisley was an assistant with the Knicks last season. Hiring an assistant coach from the worst team in the NBA ... not sure how that makes UM better.

I think you are missing the point here.

Having an experienced assistant frees Howard up to spend more time on getting the Fab 5 back together. I mean, we could be talking about eventually hanging old banners here.
