The good thing about fizzling out like we did is that BR won’t be going anywhere.

I think BR is a terrific coach and hope he stays at FU for a long time.
But I don't think S.C. would hire a coach from the SoCon that has not won the SoCon.

Yep. BR has to a of potential but hasn’t really had that great season nationally like other SoCon coaches that made the move. Doubt a big school takes that chance without at least an NCAA tournament appearance.

According to the P&C, BR is being mentioned for the C of C job. Grant was paid $671,000. I don’t see it happening, but more money is tempting. The SoCon is a better conference than the CCA (9 vs.19). BR is smart enough to know staying at Furman is his best bet for a huge job in the future.

Minnesota has fired Richard Pitino. Medved’s dream job is open.

You would think CBR would have done a new podcast by now, since the season ended. Makes you wonder. I don’t think we have an assistant ready to be a HC do we?

Tim Johnson would make a great HC.

You would think the coaches at UNCG and Winthrop would higher on the list just to name a couple. Although CBR can be very likeable and convincing.

Given how so many AD's are hurting financially because of the pandemic I don't think you'll have too many more spots open up. My money is on BR staying another few years. The job that scares me every year for BR is the Clemson job. I think Clemson would offer and I think BR would take it. He seems like an upstate guy
How Wes Miller is still at UNCG baffles me. That dude should have a major job soon.

I think as soon as he gets to the dance, he’s gone. So is it better to finally win the SoCon next year and risk a descent into suckness, or just keep coming in second for 10 years? I’m really not sure.
