Re: Replacement stands

Re: Where Are They Now? Former Player Results and News
I'm rooting for Dowtin but he's going to be 27 next week and has never carved out a steady bench role for an NBA team. I think his future is in Europe.

Re: Assistants under Coach Miller 2022-23
I looked at staffs Archie has worked on going back to his Arizona days. The only assistant he’s worked with that I could realistically see coming here is James Whitford.

Re: Assistants under Coach Miller 2022-23

My guess is he goes to a power conference, rots away on the bench for 1-2 years and then transfers down to mid major conference. A tale as old as time.

Re: 2024 Coaching Carousel
I know Pepperdine is a dead end job but this is the best they could do? A re-tread who hasn't been a head coach in 20 years and was below .500 at Wright State between 1997-2003. There had to be some young plucky assistant coach eager to climb the ranks as opposed to a 58-year old re-tread.

Only Tchikou and Weston came from higher conferences. Obviously, those two didn’t work out but not much has in the first two ye...
