What about bring back Snacks?!?!
Let the debate beginopcorn:
As an assistant? Sure. He's nowhere near ready for a power 5 job. No real debate there.

Me too. Really bad feelings here after the slick move by Mizzou. Really hope I'm wrong...
Remember the "Larry Brown and Jerry Colangelo" thing? Hmm.

We really need this or something at this level.
Not sure how this is odd timing. Bollant was terrible.
This is dumb but I'm just going to throw it out there...
I know Dayton has had good records under Miller and its hard to argue with results, but boy did they lay an egg against Northwestern in the United Center this past year. I remember sitting there before we took on BYU thinking "and some people would want to replace Groce with the guy who coaches THIS team?" Dayton dominated the A-10 this year, true enough. But you know who got second in the A-10? VCU, who I seem to recall us running out of the gym down in Miami.
I suppose this is my long-winded way of saying I don't think Archie Miller would a homerun hire.
Put me on the Keatts train.

Ah yes, IlliniNewsTweet. The greatest source.
Not sure what your point is? If you're saying the Conference isn't that good, then what do you think about UNCW conference?? If you are basing Dayton and Miller off one loss, what about UNCW 18 point loss to William & Mary.
not a bit

Damn, it says "News" in the name even. What more do you want?
Well to elaborate I think what Keatts has done at UNCW is much more impressive than what Miller has done at Dayton.
So if we will know in the next 72 hours already. Are we down to maybe Keatts/Drew/??
A shot in the dark by someone because that's when the time requirement for the posting will be over?
That tweet is nothing to trouble yourself with.

How many D1 college teams has Monty coached? What was his overall record? How has he recruited? Can you name any 3*, 4*, or 5 * players he has recruited since 2003? Curious I am not really on the Keatts train but, I believe, I would take Keatts if the choice was between those 2.
Did Keatts have an Elite Eight run i don't know about??
I am glad we didn't get CM. It says a lot about a coach that is hiring two new assistant coaches instead of bringing his staff from Cal with him....I might speak a different tune if we hire a head coach with Illinois State Ties.
Only certain NCAA wins count as important in this thread. Try making sense of the formula, it is tougher than splitting the atom
Make Champaign feel more like home for The Lou and Metro East guys. Have Ted Drewes, Hodak's, and Toasted Ravioli trucked in every day. Wear Cardinals caps if you have to. Or maybe these guys are trying to get away from St. Louis and don't want to be reminded of home.
