I just like Wade better than him.

Also I've previously said that I like Moton better and I stand by that. He's a special coach.

But I really think we're in a good place this time around. I can't see us fucking this search up. We may not get Archie, but we're not gonna get the worst coach in basketball history or a TV announcer this time.

hoping for still, think it's doable given the low seed he was given.

that's totally fair and, tbh, with my limited knowledge of both i think i agree with you. i don't think that's outlandish at all. i was speaking more about people saying it'll be a failure if we end with keatts or that he should be our last resort.

i like Moton too. i did see somewhere that he builds his roster on JUCOs and transfers every year and only has like 1 or 2 guys on the roster that committed to him out of high school. he'd have to totally change his roster management style at State and also would be making an even bigger jump than Keatts (or any other candidate) from a competition level standpoint. i don't know enough to say that I prefer Moton over Keatts, but the reasons for him not really being on our radar during this search are reasonable and make sense imo. but everything i know about Moton, i like.

if they're winning it'll be funny or cool whatever...if they're losing, we'll look like a joke (sidney lowe's red jacket). who gives a shit what they wear. we'll look like a joke if we're finishing 14th in the acc regardless of what the coach wears. and what's so outlandish about that last picture of moton?

I've listened to a couple of press interviews with Moton. To say they were painful to listen to, is an understatement. I think he is by far, the worst candidate.

This page reminded me how ridiculous the tradition of coaches wearing suits is... which is only slightly less ridiculous than baseball managers wearing the uniforms.

Think people get too caught up with "name" and star-power.

Yeah it's great to hire a guy that's been to a Final Four. But guess what, when we hired Lowe, we had a chance to hire Marshall but most thought his experience at Winthrop wasn't enough to warrant a job in the ACC. Now we look like fools. At one point Sean Miller wasn't ready and proven enough at Xavier to warrant an offer from us after 2 solid years there. I'll agree during the last search Archie wasn't considered because he wasn't a HC yet, but his name did pop-up and he had some good buzz as an assistant coach.

That's the thing about scooping up mid-major or up-and-coming coaches, you have to take a chance and hope you hit on a successful coach. Otherwise you are stuck trying to offer a truckload of money to poach a good coach or you're hiring re-treads and hoping for better results. You basically settle for a lower ceiling because you want a higher floor, when in reality what NC State needs to do is swing for a high ceiling guy and do everything they can to help him and not worry about the floor.

Honestly, I think Keatts floor is basically Gottfried. Team with a lot of highly ranked guys that can score and aren't good on defense. I actually don't care if our defensive metrics are shit as long as I can watch our game and see that we're actually putting in effort on both sides of the court. No more iso-ball on offense and just arbitrarily standing around looking at open 3's on D.

Mizzou has offered Cuonzo Martin...so i guess that sorta maybe bodes well for us that they haven't (yet) gone after one of the guys we've been mentioned most with.

no, that was in response to the guy who didn't want a flashy dressing coach on the sidelines.

he's a great interview and always comes across as an inspiring guy who connects with his players (and everyone else, for that matter) in a real way

glad to see so much code on this page

Not as a first choice, no. But some people are offended when his name is even brought up, despite the fact he is a very good coach.

Moton is too black to connect well on the recruiting trail with the Chase Cannon's and Chris Brickhouse's of the world.

Last time around wasn't there a pretty decent set of candidates available? And then bam, out of nowhere, we got a guy no one even knew was looking for a job.

there were good options, sure. seemed like we (the fans anyways, not sure about the actual search committee) aimed too high at guys like Sean Miller, Rick Barnes, etc and we may have missed a more realistic option by doing so. don't think it helped us that Shaka went to the Final 4 when he was (supposedly) one of our top targets. then he decided to stay at VCU after all. which left us scrambling. barring Dayton, VCU, and/or UNCW making big runs...we won't be in that position.

^^i disagree but who knows

this thread has gone off a cliff over the last few pages

luckily we have DMS doing the lord's work...


btw i think its instructive that NCC is a play-in game 16 seed and UNCW is a 12 seed. Shows the opinion of the committee on competition level. UNCW closer to Wich St than NCC.
