Thanks for cutting us some slack. UE has a coach who is 66-95 in Valley regular/tourney games over the last 8.5 years. That's a 400 winning percentage.

We're all just trying to pull our own weight around here.


I see what you did there

:D

How long will D+ give Giacoletti?

I would hope so. If they don't give him more than a year with all the freshman then no one has a clue at Bradley. He is basically coaching a first year program with the amount of newcomers.


Personally, I think Wardle is in the first tier (0% chance of getting fired) with Marshall, Jacobson and Hinson.

Not just because it is his first year and all of the other reason we know about the current state of Bradley basketball. But for the most part, the fan base loves him and even as bad as we've been this season, there have been significant improvements and a lot of BU fans are optimistic with what Wardle is doing.

I think every other coach has at least some possibility of getting the boot.

Aces should be top 3 material this year and next. If Marty is smart, he'll ride it to something else. Lansing continues to outperform the norm in Terre Haute, so I don't know why he is even still there.

I think the coach in immediate danger is Lusk.

I'd think Giacoletti will be given the opportunity to win with Timmer and Abrahamson next season.

As mentioned, there probably won't be any movement this year unless someone moves up or Missouri State moves on Lusk.

Lusk will be fine. Bears have started to show some upward momentum. How long is porter's leash? Can't think that MartY would be fine at most schools after disappointing but who are they going to get.

As far as Lansing isn't his wife the acting AD? I don't see either of them going anywhere.

If Marty is still here after the previous 8 years, he sure as hell isn't going anywhere after this year.

You're looking at it too singularly. Evansville is not an easy job and if he posts 3 straight 20+ win seasons and 4 in 5, yes, he'll be able to find something.

Giacoletti will likely finish this season with one conference victory. Does anybody on here think that their school would keep a guy with that record in his third year?

Nope. But to be fair, it isn't like Drake was dominant before he got there.
