OT: URI head coaching search

[intlzncster]

I love it when these buffoons ask you how long you've been a fan as if that means anything. Happened to me in another thread.

Since James Naismith! I'm eternal! What do I win? Also, go away...

The best is when they get a reply: "for 20 years". Then follow with: "Yeah? I've been a fan since the 70s!" 1st guy: "I'm 22 years old."

Not sure why this is difficult for some people. Cox has worked with Hurley for 4 years now. They work well together. Hurley trusts him. The guy's qualified. It's about a week of waiting. I mean, why is this even an issue?

C’mon mau. You’re not a real fan if you don’t start a thread proclaiming you’re quitting cause things are going poorly.

Isn’t there a famous line stating this. “Me thinks he doth protest too well!”

Perhaps he’s afraid someone will out fan him.

You come over from the women's board to do drive-by's on me the past week. Insults from the geriatric Kings of Comedy is slightly entertaining but gets boring when you add nothing else. Plus we already have great minds like gtcam and mau covering it.

Just look at the people posting it.

Holy smokes! We have to wait longer than a week for some sign of success? This is unfathomable. Either step up or step out!

Not like the guy doesn't have anything to do in the meantime.

Yankees lost today. 4-1 lead and lost 7-4 .. I'd wait for Cox no problem there and he could bring Harris if not DH is ready for that.

Add nothing else? Coming from the poster who could just cut and paste either “Fire Ollie”’or “Ollie sucks”’for a year on all your posts? Now that’s comedy.

I can wait. I want Cox more than Harris. If both come along even better.

One or two people in this thread might be serious. The rest of us are throwing shade at superjohn and the pips. Catchy name for a group BTW.

These guys have dished their negativity for two years. Kind of sad they can’t handle it for a couple of weeks.

mau and I are toughening them up.

lol are you sure you'd like to align yourself with the lower quartile of the bell curve?

 

[TRest]

It's weird that I am more inclined to put people on ignore since KO got canned than before.

Saw this and hoped it was just an April Fools, given the numbers, but nope, I just don't need to watch the DVR when I get home.

 

[UconnU]

These jerks need to hurry up and make their decision. They are holding our program hostage.

It's not an April fools. It really happened

The Final Four isn't even done yet. Cool your jets, bro.

They have no obligation to hurry their search for us, and neither are they doing us any real harm.

Count your blessings young whipper snapper. If you were in my presence I’d smack your head so hard with my walker even Chief would be issuing a concussion protocol.

Dang I spit out my teeth and broke them. Sadie!! Cancel our reservations at Cracker Barrel with Fishy.

I said Ollie was in way over his head and needed to he fired, also said Dan Hurley was going to be our next coach. What was I thinking? The horror!!!

Ate at Cracker Barrel once, convinced all their food is made out of sawdust.

Back off. Where else can you get vegetables that actually taste delicious, play the triangle game to see if you are an ignaramoose AND get a Hee Haw DVD? And then play checkers in rocking chairs?
How dare you.

Reference was to a brilliant post Fishy made about his experience taking a client to Cracker Barrel.

I know and remember it. I couldn't think of anything to say, that's why the lame response.

So the news is no news. Rhode Island's Some Guy is worse than our Some Guy.

Cox is overrated by the yard just like Chillious and Killings were. Every assistant somewhere else is supposedly a great recruiter not taking into account who the head coach of that program is or what school they actually recruit for. I was the only one who called it like I saw it. No assistant is some can't miss hire, we hired the right head coach and that is what matters. I'll take Jermaine Harris over Cox without question if it came down to those 2.

However, people need to be patient with a head coach just hired. The fact that URI is waiting this long and conducting interviews is a good sign that the Rhode Island doesn't really want to give Cox the job if they can help it. They've seen how that works out for other programs.
