no need for this, why even start this when it's a rumor he may be on Rutger's list?

Hal Kopp is satire and should be taken as such. Don't get bent out if shape about his posts. They're actually kind of funny of you get what he's doing.

Silly Hal. You know we hire sucessful UCLA coaches who get fired. They take us deep into the tournament. No need for lists.

I heard Thorr agreed to stay with the understanding he will become basketball coach when Hurley bolts for Rutgers. No list is needed.

Fantastic list. I actually know Russ Cordua, and had no idea he played at URI a while after I met him. He is a teacher at a Maryland high school that is competitive in football and basketball, but he does not coach.

Rusty may have been the best pure shooter I ever saw in 50 years watching URI basketball.
He didn't have the 3 point line, either. Incredible range and quick release.
Too bad he left after his only year at URI. He would have
been one of the greats here.

I saw the following posted in the comments section underneath the Yahoo article and almost puked:

"Former Rhode Island coach, and current Canisius coach Jim Baron would be a great choice.
Solid character, solid teacher.
He does things the right way."

Gerry Gimelstob! He's an alum, a former benchwarmer, and he got fired by GW.
Perfect!
Is Brendan Malone still alive? What about bringing Claude back?

Cindy Baron would be ideal - no relocation expenses for URI and she has Jim's rolodex.

Didn't Kareem Abdul-Jabbar toss his hat in the ring after Harrick left? Let's see if he's interested now!

Speaking of great UCLA big men, how about Bill Walton? Since (as seen in the Bob Ryan thread) he knows exactly how the game should be coached "these days," let's give him the chance to do it!
