Tom Moore

[Fairfield_1st]

Don't need him. I like the recruiting classes we're starting to get. If he was a good X's and O's guy he wouldn't be getting released, so I see no need for him. Next time an asst. chooses to leave I would prefer a big man coach, preferably a Pete Newell if he returns from the grave. But I see no need for changes at the expense of a current coach. He should go to CCSU with Donyell and add some experience there.

The ONE thing Moore's teams always did was rebound. He would be an incredible improvement on the current big man coach.

Hopefully sarcasm, but I can't exactly tell from your other posts. Guy's been here for 8 months. That's an itchy trigger finger if I ever saw one

The mentality of that post is not sarcasm. Consider the source

While we're at it, let's bring JC back as Head Coach.

How about Perno or Hugh Greer

 

[UConnSwag11]

Keep them all and add Moore if there's no baggage. If you can't keep them move Miller to oversee operations?

What's wrong with Dee Rowe?

Would like to see it.
Also bring Howie in to coach the bigs.

Howie at right behind the bench on senior day. He was getting stat sheets every timeout. The first time Brimah came out he screamed "0 rebounds, 0"

Diarra and Brimah looked into the crowd with a perplexed look seeing who said it.

I would put a couple members of the coaching staff into a trebuchet if it meant freeing up space for Tom Moore.

Ollie, Moore and Killings would recruit the paint off the walls.

Thank you a couple people mentioning Killings being ousted. I mean can we give him some time? Agree, Tom would be more than welcome back.

You should have said 'Ollie, Killings and Moore and Moore.'

If I meant that, I would have said that.

 

[Tenspro2002]

Killings deserves some more time.

Ricky Moore, who knows.

Glen Miller we know who he is at this point. I wouldn't mind seeing Tom Moore in this role instead -- I like the toughness he instills.

That's exactly how I feel. Ollie better be in his ear.

 

[superjohn]

Wasn't there additional bad blood w/ Moore beyond the Miles issues? I seem to remember him asserting that JC like to run up the score on teams to pad his players stats...

No, he views Calhoun as a father figure.

Yup saw him there. Could be the kick in the rear the bigs will need next year.

 

[Towney007]

Gosh I was just thinking about Moore yesterday and wondering if Q was going to let him go.

If he's available, they're crackers not to bring him back in the fold. Their recruiting would just be something else.

I'm not ready to see Ollie go anywhere yet. A shakeup on the coaching staff though? I'm all for it. Especially with a guy who had as much success here as Moore did.

 

[Towney007]

I mean how much of a boost it needs is debatable at least in terms of getting guys high up the list... next year's roster and nat'l rankings:

Adams - 25
Larrier - 41
Enoch - 72
Gilbert - 32
Jackson - 57
Durham - 30
Diarra - 133
MAL - 36
Plley - 106

You'd figure with that many top 50/100 guys...

Dude that awesome..

 

[MattMang23]

I'm a pass on Moore. We need a solid developer of talent. Recruiting, Moore's strength, has been fine.

No, Jim likes Tom - always has!

 

[Chief00]

Chaise Daniels - - would he be eligible for transfer from Q now? He's 6-9 240pds and puts up decent numbers. Went to Hillhouse was like 26-1 and is much more active than Cobb.

He'd have to sit a year unless he graduates early. He has not redshirted.

I love the fact that you mentioned a trebuchet in a forum about college basketball. That is not something many people can say.

Pass. He tends to lounge too much.
