Rumor BU has new HC

Bravesfan said:
My bad! I meant to say that it probably wouldn't be in that $700k range. But I would think it would be more than the $300k he earned at Kent St.

oh no...I didn't mean it that way! I agree that he is making more... To leave his previous job, I would think that he is at least making $500k here plus incentives. What I meant to say is that the $700k salary was thrown out there early on with a couple of candidates and I thought that was on the high side. Now, I wonder what the salary is and I wouldn't rule out a salary approaching the $700k level. just not certain???
 
No one was more torn up about JL's firing than I was, but seems like we have a nice coach in place to replace him! Welcome to Bradley Geno!

Any chance he can get Sammy to stay since he only verbally committed to Illinois?? Those two recruits would not be bad if they followed him here either, 3-star 89 rated recruit (even though ESPN ratings are not always accurate) looks pretty good. Looks like he could bring a sorely needed 3 point shooter as well. Hopefully DSE, RA, and SH like our new guy!
 
I knew there would come a day when I totally supported T!
This is it. :cool:

Good pick up by BU! Happy to stand in the line behind T to welcome the new BU coach and wish him much success.

Let the recruiting, and wooing current BU players/2011 recruits, begin!
New coaches typically bring some of their future recruits with them offsetting players/recruits leaving after coaching changes!

Let's make sure to give him the same grace period many other MVC coaches have received - 3-4 years to get the program up and running to a point where we have bragging rights over ISU-R fans!

PS
Wonder if BU could give Geno an honorary degree to make him a BU alum, as a way to build loyalty to stay after he has been successful at BU?
:lol::lol::lol:
 
well congrats to Geno Ford for making the correct career move --
and now -- let's set an immediate and continual moratorium on puns on his last name...please...


and once again -- the news reported here on BradleyFans even before it becomes news......

Not that it matters... but the Bradleyhoops forum had the story about Ford leaving KSU up an hour before Bradleyfans, and it broke the news of the actual hiring 3 minutes before as well. ;)

not that it is an issue but since you brought it up...
I think it is provable that this is wrong...

the very first mention of Geno Ford even as a candidate was...
Sunday - 1:14PM on BradleyFans - link
and not 'til Sunday 3:26PM on the other board - link

Then the first mention that he was going to be hired as new BU coach was...
a little after 5PM (5:29PM) on Sunday on BradleyFans - link
but even as late as 7PM on the other board there were people saying they doubted it was true... link
...btw -- about four minutes after the word was posted on Bradleyfans...it was essenitially copied over onto the other board...but definitely NOT before...

if your times say any different then you are using a different setting in your profile for time zones...check it out...
