Unfortunately or fortunately depending on how you look at it men’s basketball is a business. Whether one likes that or not. Low attendance, low donations, “pride” in seeing your school at the big dance, which leads to donations all over the school will ultimately drive the head coaching decision. It is what have you done for me lately and what do we expect and predict what you will do in the future? Since 2017 which at the end of the season is 5 years ago and especially the last two seasons the “ product” on the floor of redbird arena has not been very good, not even average. Does not matter how good a person you are or anything else about you but at the end of the day you will be judged on your results. And, in this “business” that is wins versus loses, did you bring in extra money with a tournament bid, etc. It is not personal just business. Hopefully people can move beyond, history and personal relationships, what happened in the past, and do what is best for the FUTURE of redbird basketball.
