Remains to be seen whether he can identify and hire the right guy but seems to get the fit.

 
He's making a lot of noise about finding a guy that will give the program a proper identity. That's a positive
 
Pat Chun s record on hiring a basketball coach is not good . At FAU he hired Michael Curry who amassed a 39-84 record before being fired last year.. As far as making good basketball decisions and hiring coaches it looks like he has trouble finding his own arse in a dark bathroom .I hope he listens to people who know what they are doing.It is funny to listen to the guy who acts like he knows what he is doing.

So, you want to rehire Kent?
 
Those are your words dude. Kent is history and people should be focusing on who is hired. I put a fact down and you respond with a nonsense retort. I am saying that Chun is like someone trying to learn to ice skate for the first time. He is bumbling toward the finish line and needs someone who knows what they are doing to right this clumsy affair.It has cost WSU a huge chunk of money and the next coach will cost the cougs over 2.8 million yearly over the next three years. He better make the right decision. I am not comfortable in letting the bumbling idiot make the right choice by himself.

You are horribly naive if you think Chun made the decision to can Ernie by himself. Expending that kind of jack is above his authority limit.

Just because No-Donation Bill had an open credit line, doesn't mean Chun does. There's a clearly defined pecking order in handling finances with Sherriff Schultz in town. They made the cost/benefit analysis of keeping No-Coach Ernie Kent around and made a business decision. Keeping him around was going to continue to negatively aspect the university.

And thank god for that.

Aside from the fact that you don't like that he fired Kent, what has he done or not done in the coaching search so far that indicates "he's bumbling toward the finish line" or that this has been "a clumsy affair"? It has been less than a week since EK was let go, many of the potential targets probably still have teams that are playing in post season tournaments, and there is absolutely no factual information on who he may be looking at or talking to....only internet speculation and rumors. Chun has hired a search firm to help in the process, so he's not doing things by himself (like Moos did). So let's talk specifics, what is it that makes you uncomfortable with the process so far, aside from the initial decision to make a change?

He's squatty. El has made that body-shaming evaluation.

From where I sit, Chun is pretty cut. I wouldn't arm-wrestle him.
 
El was actually pretty happy with Pat Chun's last basketball hire - Kamie Etheridge. Now he's a bumbling idiot.

The Cougars were not greatly talented this past year but I agree with Chun that they had the talent to win more games than they did. Of course, having his team play below it's talent level has long been Ernie Kent's history.
 
I thought 3 of Ernies 5 teams under achieved, based on the talent level. Certainly the last 2 teams.

I not only put ElC on ignore (and am now much happier for having done so), but, before I did so, I reported him for his defaming smear of Chun. By the way, it was the first time I had ever done either of those things to anybody on this board.

yeah - I did too. But he's like that crazy ex-girlfriend. You know you're better off without her and happy with the new hot, non-crazy girlfriend. but you just can't help but take a peek every once in a while to glimpse that level of crazy to appreciate what you have going forward.
 
I have never laughed so hard. When it comes to slamming people do we have to look further than Mr observer s comments on Bill Moos almost nonstop as well as others. If defaming him by calling him a harmless nickname or saying he is incompetent good luck fellows. I would say the same thing to his face about his waste of taxpayer money.That crazy old coot observer is all about himself.At least we got some service out of Kent under Moos. Chun is paying him for 3 years at 1.4 mil a year for nothing. I guess i could be banned from this board. Also do we report the other board and others here for the abuse heaped upon Kent? I guess it is who s OX is being gored for guidelines here.
 
Yes observer that is a pathetic response. Your comments on Moos seemingly are based on a long term personal animosity against the man. My recent posts on Chun perhaps number under 10. I probably lost count on about 40 on your negative comments on Moos. Whatever you say about Moos he is responsible for WSU s continued presence in the PAC 12 . My comments on Chun are for his recent fiscally irresponsible actions and a lack of basketball knowledge which has led to a precipice which he may fall over. You are the crazy old coot who was probably tossed out of your privileged status under the old regimes by Moos. I had forgotten about that old recalcitrant group of codgers.. I had hoped that you guys had gone away.

ElC's defaming smear of Chun? I guess I missed that. Certainly not "squatty" Chun. Although CougPatrol and I still think he meant "squinty" Chun. Which would not be appropriate. Unless the sun was in his eyes.

I thought you let things go?

Make it 41.

Did Bill's check to the CAF clear yet? Or is he waiting for his latest Ernie kickback wire?
 
BTW, TV money is responsible for WSU "success". And that TV money would have been there with Jim Sterk or John Johnson or Loyal Coug.

Now all of a sudden you care about fiscal responsibility? that's hilarious.
 
You guys are idiots. Squatty means low to the ground ,thickset and if they thought" squinty" ?Then the thought originated in their little brains. Great minds think alike i guess. :) I really enjoy the misdirection and lack of creative thought here.
 
i look around and see where this board has gone during the basketball season. It makes me want to take a long perhaps permanent hiatus from posting on this board. So cheers fellows and have fun with your blinders on thinking
