The greedy SOB in me wants David Cox, but I know that’s highly unlikely.

isn't one of the guys Adams AAU coach? that would probably keep him here and solidify our northeast recruiting
Can't find who you're talking about. Can you remember his name?

I was hoping he would come, but if Cox stays at URI, he could too. We need a full on recruiter.

Hearing the most likely - if any- current staff member to be retained would be Kevin Freeman.
As NCAA regs do not permit individuals in the Director of Basketball Administration role to engage in recruiting, ... potentially there may be something to Borges' rumor.

Absolutely.

I would sign up for that in a heartbeat.

I was a little encouraged when they announced a ‘nationwide search’ for a new coach, but I’m guessing they end up promoting him,

That's the only reason I thought to bother mentioning it.

Someone explain to me what the love affair for Cox is? Cause he recruited Jermaine Harris? I remember his bio saying he worked for Rutgers before URI, did he do anything special there?

Excellent recruiter - strong AAU and high school connections. Bright - spent several years as an assistant principal. Master’s degree. He’s been an associate head coach at RU and URI. He filled in as head coach for three games at Rutgers and went 3-0 which will likely land him in the RU hall of fame.

But basically, he has terrific experience. Coached at Archbishop Carroll. Was AP/AD at St. John’s Prep. Coached at Pitt, Georgetown, Rutgers and URI.

AKA there's no reason for them to hire someone else. Basically malpractice if they do.
