Countdown to the End of the Coach Hewitt Era

[Old Man]

To Arroz Blanco's credit - he is a large and powerful man. He could pretty much take down anyone on the boards. Despite his posts he is a good natured gentleman in person - but seriously he could maul you if he was so inclined.

That is, as long as the ROTC troops don't point their empty guns at him. I've never seen him riled up except when that happened.

Just talked to a pretty big donor who heard Hewitt is definitely gone and that a UVA assistant and a Minnesota assistant are among those on Edwards' short list. #speculation

Is the team back from NYC yet? Assuming it's spring break, did some of the guys just stay in NY or go straight to some other place?

Not a lot of experience on the Minnesota staff.

Yeah, that school struck me as odd, too. I am happy to hear that Edwards is allegedly compiling a target list already.

The suspense is killing me

Their ball boy would be an improvement. But Brad cant hire the ball boy. Things have been hectic for him, and he needs to make a good choice here. ImO, nobody on Pitino jr's staff looks to be ready for multiple bid league.

Ritchie McKay? Just checked out his track record - doesn't thrill me.

Me either.

Im hoping for a guy already doing well as a head coach looking for a small to medium step up.

 

[sigmanorm]

Or Williford could be the target

I should have specified that although my contact is connected, he is not a hoops junkie like the rest of us here. He clearly mentioned those specific schools to me, but he very well could have mixed Minnesota with another school.

His primary points were that Hewitt is gone and that Edwards already has a wish list to replace him. Something tells me he's been working on that list for the past several months.

Well, we probably would not fire a guy if he was on a train or a plane or spending a day or two in New York visiting friends and family. Was wondering whether or not we know Hewitt is in VA.

Bus was suppose to leave late this morning from NY according to the chatter around the field house. I would guess that means team bus as well as band/cheerleaders. I imagine they will get back sometime this afternoon.

High Point under Scott Cherry has won their conference regular season the last three years. Haven't made it to the big dance yet, but have played post-season ball three straight years for the first time in High Point history.

They had hotel rooms for last night in NYC? Huh...would have thought they checked out on Wednesday with the bus scheduled for departure around 9 PM.

 

[Dawgs99]

If its a UVA assistant its almost certainly Jason Wiliford. Don't think Ritchie Mckay would get back behind the big desk at a school like Mason....or I could be way off. I love defense so if its Wiliford I'd be OK with that.

 

[BandWagon18]

The band got back about an hour and a half ago. We stayed overnight in New York because we had a recruiting event at a high school on Long Island regardless of when Blewitt decided that our season be over.

 

[Pikapppatri8]

If Edwards already has a list then I am happy. I just need a change any change
