Yeah and the guy has won everywhere he's been. He's not a newbie.

Question for those more in the know than me. When a team gets a steal or RB, shouldn't that send a team signal to fire a quick pass to anyone open down court then push it inside for a close easy shot? I'm guessing we didn't do that very well, no? Are there stats for transitional points?

We could hire Jay Wright, Tom Izzo, Bill Self etc and people would complain

And while I don't expect us to become SecondChanceU under Jans, I do expect he will bring in a difference maker or two that is high maintenance but he is well prepared to manage.

Jans has a higher ceiling than Adams, but the comp is pretty good otherwise. Both preach defense and can adapt to their roster.

I always forget Texas Tech is your second school.

That too. The higher level perspective is somebody better start doing something.

Not saying he's John Wooden but he's been a winner and has done pretty well for himself. I think it's a very good hire.

Does he make his teams practice against air like Howland?

I think you know better than most my disdain for that cow pasture in Lubbock. It makes Starkville look like NYC.

Being able to successfully navigate CBB free agency is different game than HS recruiting. I'm guessing you still keep Brooks for a high school pipeline, but not at the sacrifice of finding a great portal talent evaluator and free agency recruiter.

I'll be surprised if we keep Brooks- but who knows.

As to the rest- exactly. The portal is the way moving forward. It's important to bring in some HS guys and develop talent sure, but the portal is going to be what keeps your team consistently playing for important games in March. Having a staff to help manage recruiting thru the portal as well as in HS is what is going to make the success happen.

You honestly could not ask for a better hire for a completely dead program

I guess not completely dead. I'll give it you, you've been the last fan breathing and talking to yourself in game threads. It is admirable!

Iowa State went 2-22 last year!! They are in the sweet 16 this year. You can turn things around in a hurry with the portal. How long will it take Jans.

So what is expectation in his first year?

20 wins? Sneak into NCAAT?

What does everyone think?
