Just curious, are you trying to compare the coach K situation to the current situation at ISU?

just pointing out that even a great hall of fame coach takes a while to develop I dont care if they keep Dan or not but look at Evansville they fired Marty and then made a couple of bad hires I see a couple of very good div 2 coaches that might like to move up but they could also be major fails

It would be in Dans best interest to go be an assistant for a highly successful head coach if he truly wanted to develop himself. The guy played and coached under one guy, he needs to see how others do things. See Moser & Majerus.

If the AD can’t find a basketball coach that is better than Dan, we need a new AD

So there are 13 people that believe (and I know Quinny did it as an unrealstic hypothetic) that if ISU won the National Title, let alone made a run through the torunamen, he should still be fired. Absolutely exposes the ignorance of some.

Yet it took Moser seven additional seasons, after leaving Majerus, at LUC to achieve success; you have had no patience for that (you are ready to bail on the AD after just one).

Wonder if LUC could not afford to buy him out and they had to just wait him out all the way to a Final Four appearance.

And Brennan is the AD, not just the MBD (Men's Basketball Director).

Kind of cherry picking. He was given extra time because of the jump up in conference after a few years in the horizon. His clock basically restarted.

Point being there was little in his UALR/ISU/LU resume that, after thirteen seasons, would have forecast what happened afterward.

how about we all let the AD do his job
You kidding? Certain people on here have to discuss it ad nauseum. To post anything else for an extended period of time might make their heads implode. Even given the facts that it's out of our hands and most people on here have the same consensus. They are more content to turn the forums into ESPNs First Take. Except it's worse and doesn't end, and I don't think the guys realize that they are probably just doing it for entertainment at this point.

Awful, terrible loss at last place, 4-win Evansville. Anyone still want Dan?
Here's another take. If Dan had the same record over a 10-year span at another equivalent non-MVC, mid-major team, and we had an opening, would you want him? What a shit show. Let's keep him for another year and see how he does against form OVC top teams like Belmont and Murray St and against Yalich at UIC. Close the door. Enough is enough. Damn.

Fire muller now. We have too much talent on this team to lose to teams like Jackson St and Eville. He sucks. Fire him now and put in a asst coach as the interim.

Another Thursday night and most likely back on campus Friday morning. Another losing season staring at us. Even the cbi won’t take us. Incredible how this program has crash and burned thanks to this guy and Larry Lyons.

If muller had a modicum of humility he would step down but we know he won’t. We are screwed.

I was amazed at the color guy on the "streamcast" saying Muller has done a fantastic job at ISU over the last ten years. Made me wonder how he got that idea.

Their announcers were all over the place. Gave their guy props for flopping on what should have been a blocking foul. Getting excited when we scored. Salivating over DoubleTree cookies.
