Whats the buzz on what WV is gonna do at head coach?

It’s gonna come down to promoting Eilert … Or getting Calhoun or another mid major coach …

They like Andy Kennedy from UAB, but I was told he is intent on staying unless it’s an offer he can’t refuse …

I know they’ve talked to Pat Kelsey as well as Bob Richey … Both would be great hires …

The problem with getting a HM coach is timing and buyout right now … They’ve talked to a few … But I wouldn’t say they’re in “advanced” talks with any as of right now …

3 scenarios I see happening here:

1. Kriisa comes here
2. Open spot is left open for Boswell
3. Brad jumps to WVU

Edit: just saw Indy comments on WVU…

With Williams leaving, would we really leave the spot open? Seems like it’d be a better move to take a flier on a PG (Kriisa hopefully, maybe Tousaaint as a backup option?) unless the staff is STUNNED with at least two of Ty, DGL, Moretti (or Harmon but I don’t believe he’s on campus)

This is my bad … I was talking with a source today and asked about WVU kid … Well we had been talking about Jesse Edwards yesterday and Kriisa the day before that … He thought I was referring to Jesse Edwards instead of Kriisa … So that information was based on Edwards … Lol …

By the time I posted it here … We hadn’t figured out we were talking about 2 different kids … 😂

I can’t hardly keep all this 💩 straight anymore … 😂

But I expect WVU to lose up to 8 guys and I eventually think Edwards leaves no matter who the coach is anyways …

Mitchell is going to UK … Joe T from Iowa originally will be in portal … Obviously Kerr … Battle will probably enter … Edwards will probably enter … And a few role players from last years team … None we’d have interest in …

But I will say … Depending on who the coach is … I think most of those guys could go back … Maybe even all besides Mitchell …

You all know where I stand on Kerr … Brad has different feelings about it … But I’m hoping he comes to the realization of the expectations here for the MBB program and realizes Kerr solves problems …
are you saying we aren't going to have interest in Kerr? or not gonna have interest in the role players? or both?

If I was HC … I make Kerr an offer he can’t refuse and if he refuses … I go get Joe Toussaint …

As for your option 3 … Timing would be AWFUL …

interesting comment RE option 3. Implies its a possibility. Also that its not overall a bad thing, but that the timing of it is bad, er, awful.
