Getting my hopes up again lol

If you offered me $750,000 to change jobs for a year, I don’t even care where you’re sending me lol if he comes back then build that man a statue.

Ouch. Legas was a leader behind people announcing coming back and was assumedly helpful in getting guys to commit to stay. Not sure who this announcement is a worse look for, Legas or Coach? Pretty obvious to me that it’s Coach A. Always seemed like he was harder on Legas and looked for excuses to b...

2024-25 Staff Jerrod Calhoun - Head Coach Ben Asher - Assistant Coach Eric Brown - Assistant Coach Eric Daniels - Assistant Coach Manny Robinson - Assistant Coach Paul Molinari - Director of Basketball Operations So in theory we could still have 1 additional assistant per NCAA rules. Are we done wi...

I feel like this whole situation was easily avoidable. The offensive priority for next season should've been OL to keep your QB's on their feet and off the injury report. Then: 1. Legas as the clear QB1 2. Hillstead as the experienced sophomore and QB of the future 3. Sure, bring in Barnes as your "...

I’m still not sure why the staff did what they did with the QBs this off season. Bringing in a grad transfer made little sense given that we have a senior starter and a sophomore with a lot of experience. Yet we brought in two grad transfers who had a lot of experience but don’t fit our style of of...

https://twitter.com/rivalsportal/status/1778842397029409165?s=46 This kid is a hooper and we need to do a full court press to go get him. Out of everyone in that roster he might be the one I want most at Utah state. He and Robinson are basically it. We recruited him pretty hard out of high school d...

AggiePharm

Given the list he's probably an unrealistic target. But I love seeing that Calhoun clearly works the transfer portal hard.

AggiePharm

Does the increased assistant salary pool mean we’ll have an additional assistant spot? So we could retain Haslam & Brown, add Calhoun’s 2 Youngstown guys AND add an additional assistant that we’re assumedly recruiting from the Final 4 interviews?

AggiePharm

Calhoun likes to have bigs to shoot 3s. Osobor does not fit that scheme. DJ Burns had shot 9 3's through his for 4 years of college ball. Calhoun said the staff worked on his shot all summer and he shot 96 of them this season. Now, 32% obviously isn't great, but I don't think Calhoun is afraid of l...

Transfer portal is ruining college sports Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Agreed. Although it drives interest While I also agree with this, it’s not like we weren’t massive beneficiaries of the portal with this exact player just 12 months ago. I don’t blame Ashworth or Osobor for even 1 second i...

Welp. Guess it’s time to start the full rebuild like we were expecting last year.

Brenden Wenzel back to Utah but as an Aggie?

AggiePharm

For me, the closest thing there is to a slam dunk hire would be Chris Mack. I don't think we have even inquired and I think he could easily get a job at a P4 but the problem is those opportunities are all but gone at this point. He says he's looking for the right fit - how many places offer as many...

Probably no prayer with this kid, but man it would be a great pickup. I wonder if Uduje and him know each other at all through past teamates/friends.

The fact that he has an agent tells me we likely have no chance at him

https://www.tribtoday.com/sports/local-sports/2024/03/jerrod-calhoun-left-his-mark-on-youngstown-state-hoops/ I came across this article and thought others would find it interesting as well. It spells out Calhoun’s success in building YSU in different ways through his tenure there. He built a good f...

AggiePharm

So Aggies#10 was right when he first posted Calhoun. Then followed it up by saying we’d probably keep Haslam, Brown, and basically the whole roster. Osobor, Martinez, Uduje, Falslev, and Johnson. That would be an absolute miracle if the whole band (minus Brown - massive loss) was coming back. Go por...

Youngstown has been in the Horizon league since 2001-2002. Their conference finishes:

9th

9th
4th
9th
6th
10th
9th

5th

With Calhoun
9th
6th
4th
6th
7th
1st
2nd

Took an absolute bottom feeder and made them competitive. My favorite pick? No, but I’ll trust the upside.

Calhoun's current contract says that he's not able to recruit any of the same HS players of he takes a new job.

Someone is going to have to convince me here. Looking at his record, why are we excited about this, but we're not excited about Toledo Tod? Doesn't look like he has had any post season success, has been good but not great in a weak conference. I would generally agree. Took him quite a while to show...

If this ends up being true, then who the heck is this guy?

AggiePharm

Yo if he really keeps especially Haslam then count me all the way in. An overseas recruiting pipeline would do wonders for Utah State.

AggiePharm

The fact that this is still the case is kind of shocking. Doesn't mean there won't still be an exodus, but maybe Sabau was able to buy some time with this group.

May or may not actually mean anything. Just interesting. From a Toledo reporter: "A lot of pieces still moving here, but Tod Kowalcyk is at Mud Hens opening day in Toledo today."

Who does Calhoun have on his team that he could get here?

He had an extremely senior-laden roster. 4 of his top 5 scorers were super seniors and the 5th was also a senior (maybe an extra year of eligibility left but probably not).

AggiePharm

Calling my shot here. I have no sources and part of it may be wishful thinking, but based on the interview from Sabau, the best fit for what she is looking for is Josh Schertz. Would be ecstatic to have him. I did correctly guess Craig Smith back in the day. Feel free to excoriate me if wrong :-) I...

Another long shot, but what about Neil Berry, Shaka Smart's lead assistant: https://gomarquette.com/sports/mens-basketball/roster/coaches/neill-berry/1857 Although he hasn't been an HC, he has an amazing resume and is supposedly one of the best recruiters out there.

She finished by saying that they want to hire someone that has already achieved a similar level of success we've had this year. 28 wins and an NCAA win is a huge accomplishment. But we should always be reaching and pushing for another level.

AggiePharm

She mentioned how whether or not you use a search firm, the key is to do a lot of research. She didn't feel it necessary because of the vast pool of connections she has with other programs, coaches (college and NBA), AD's, etc. across the country.

She met with the team and "the coaching staff that's still in place". I wonder who that does/doesn't include.
