OT: Monmouth knocks off #17 Notre Dame in Mens BB
- Thread starter brodo
- Start date
Maybe our best coaching move would be to look in on the Monmouth BB coach.
If he was here , he had better do better than he did his first 3 years as the Hawks HC while he was making that program better.
But he was making Monmouth better, that's more than I can say for Flood .
At one time I thought Flood might prove to be a good HC, but now feel I was wrong thinking that.
This was about basketball, and you turned it on Flood. How is Eddie doing these days?
Not good. We have the two most poorly coached / unwatchable revenue sports in the power 5. And also we are told to accept this fact with a 5 year grace period where everything will magically get better.
Amazing to me how futile men's BB has been.
Our last winning season was under Gary Waters in 2005-06, and he had 3 winning seasons. Why did we fire (ahem, he "resigned") him again? Oh, and if I recall correctly, Gary did not "sue" the University for a settlement. Sometimes you need to be careful what you wish for.

This may be a delicate subject because Eddie Jordan is a legacy and part of the 1976 hoopla, but did his professional coaching record of 257-343 give anyone pause? Or were they too busy checking that he was a "Rutgers graduate."
Rutgers revenue sports- going in circles for too many years.
Maybe we should wait until Barchi is out before hiring a new football coach.
Monmouth bench mob is famous and burning up Twitter:

Meanwhile the headline in the same newspaper for Rutgers:
Rutgers romped by Clemson, goes 0-2 in Las Vegas

Honestly, we needed to hire Jordan just to put some space between us and the Mike Rice fiasco. Even if he moves the program sideways, it was still necessary before hiring someone who could really turn us around.
you do realise this is Monmouth basketball and has ZERO to do with Flood,,yes?
nice try
Rutgers is the 5th or 6th best mens basketball team in NJ.
SHU, Monmouth, NJIT, Princeton are better, maybe even St Pete's or Rider.

It certainly hasn't happened overnight for King Rice...
