Get ahead of your skis much? Perhaps we should wait until we know if we're getting a new coach; and if we do, learn who it is before we worry about who the nameless, faceless coach might hire as assistant coaches. Just sayin'...

Seems we’ve been thinking about this for most of my adult life and I’m 67

If it's going to happen, today should be the day. There is little time to waste with the firing and hiring season about to begin.

He finished the last part of the year 6-7, I think that warrants another 2 year extension. We don't want to lose any recruits.

Agreed. Nice guy, but Fox lost 20 games with a loaded squad

I have enjoyed my interaction with Fox. Really like him but he gets it. He knows and I’m sure Doug told him at the beginning of the season the two paths his future would take. Win=stay, lose=gone.

Agreed, this should come as no surprise to Fox. I’m sure everyone knows what’s coming. GO APPS!!

If Fox is told that he's remaining as basketball coach there needs to be a physician present. The shock might cause some severe problems with the man's health.

There would need to be one on this board too.Arsenal App wrote: ↑Wed Mar 13, 2019 8:40 amIf Fox is told that he's remaining as basketball coach there needs to be a physician present. The shock might cause some severe problems with the man's health.
Seriously. What are the chances DG lets him finish out his contract?

What is worse for our program? A fresh start with a new coach and staff with the possibility of losing a recruit or 2 or another year like the last 5 or 6? It won’t be any different under Fox next year.

Retaining Fox would be worse for our program.
Now give me a hard one.

Are we hiring Manning? I hear he'll be unemployed soon, if he isn't already.

Great guy, good recruiter, does the right things off the court, but struggles in game and with team development. Best of luck Coach Fox, I know you'll be picked up quickly as an assistant somewhere.

What? Wake can't fire him can they? They just gave him a 5 or 6 year extension last year. I can't say I'd be excited about him as a hire in any event.Black Saturday wrote: ↑Wed Mar 13, 2019 10:05 amAre we hiring Manning? I hear he'll be unemployed soon, if he isn't already.
