Some of those schools are almost impossible to win at. I guess you take the gig and just hope for a steady paycheck for 4 years or so.
Re: Pressley, in retrospect, the book on him is that he’s undersized (though big wingspan) and raw. So far, Major’s staff has seemed focused on getting guys with real size. As PB pointed out, so we can play Temple style. Big team that can defend. Pressley seems more like a Lutz player.
I didn’t even know Perry Clark was a head coach, and now he’s not. An old Niner rival from the 90’s. The first big Niner win that I was at was when we beat Clark’s Tulane team in 1993 that was in the Top 25.
Was that the “posse” second starting five squad he had? I remember that win though!
My big Niner wins was the Diet Pepsi Tourny with Alabama and Depaul. Rodney Odom = BEAST (if only for a weekend)[/quote]
I vaguely remember them being referred to as the posse. They basically came in for a few minutes at a time and pressed the hell out of you, then went back to the bench.
Anthony Reed and Leveldro Simmons were the two guys on that team I remember. Reed was swole up.
The Posse predated Nolan Richardson’s 40 minute sof hell.
It looked like a hockey game doing line changes when they’d sub in, all at once. Besides cranking up the pressure, I think he believed that playing the same 5 guys together on his 1st and 2nd teams built chemistry.
A bit of trivia - Duquesne head coach Ron Everhart was a Clark assistant at Tulane during the “Posse” era, while current Tulane assistant Kim Lewis (1991 Metro ROY) was an intergral player on those teams in the early '90s. I remember well attending the Metro tourney in Louisville in 1992 at that dump of an arena, Freedom Hall!

That was Jerald Honeycutt’s team? No?[/quote]
Honeycutt was at Tulane 94-97. He was at Tulane the entire time I was at Charlotte. I was thinking that “the posse” pre-dated him mainly while I was in high school(circa 1992 and before) and my first year or so at Charlotte, because I don’t remember Clark running that system once we both joined CUSA for the 95-96 system, or even during our last year or two in the Metro.
Wow. Felt was right. Surprising, but after seeing their crowds (or lack thereof) this season it’s easy to see that many have lost faith in Hewitt. Hewitt will be well paid in his departure. Good situation for a new coach to come into, as they will have a new arena in 2012-2013.

Good catch. You can see the influence in the Duquesne teams. I was always surprised Richardson was not able to sustain his program. I know he ran into issues, but the program was already declining prior to that. Mike Anderson seems to be sustaining the system better than Richardson did.

I was there too…huge weekend…and the 4th team was NC State, they lost so we didnt get a chance to play…those were the days when depaul was a team that had national respect…

Better job Georgia Tech or NC State? Discuss.[/quote]
Ga Tech. No duke and chapel hill to contend with minutes from your doorstep, great area for basketball recruiting in ATL, and a fanbase that can’t be quite as delusional as ncsu.

NCSU
2 National Championships, better recruits/players in place, and intense rivalries.
