    He should have already announced his intentions. They must be waiting for the national news to get up to St Cloud for the live press conference. Maybe Duke is in the picture

    CSU just picked up a guard for next year's recruiting class, if that matters.

    I wouldn't count the Mountain West as a high-major conference. I would call the ACC, Big East, SEC, Big Twelve, etc. high major conferences.

    I find it ironic and funny.

    Well basically Miles has never stayed at one school longer than 6 years. Every time his teams have lost less than 10 games, he has parlaid that into a new job. In all of the years that Miles has coached, he has never lost 20 or more games in a season until he arrived at CSU. He now has the distiction of accomplishing that twice in both years he has coached at CSU. I'm sure if they lose another 20 games next year, he will be on the hot seat. It could go either way. If he is successful, he will leave. If he struggles, he will be forced out. Either way I don't see him being there the rest of his career.

    Nagy on the other had has only been a head coach at one university and has been at SDSU for 14 years. He is well rooted into the university and the community. He is not going anywhere. If Nagy had been offered the CSU job, he would have turned it down. He is not using SDSU as a springboard to get a higher profile job.

    So to get back on topic, if I'm a recruit and I look at both of these coaches, I know that Nagy will be there for his entire career. Miles, not real sure, but probably not.
    Are you serious? You really believe Nagy wouldn't take a job at a higher profile school, with a bigger recruiting base, a better conference and a $300,000 raise if he was offered it? Nagy would increase his salary by 4 times or more with that move. I guarantee if we were at Cubby's right now having a beer and talking about this ... you would have the biggest smirk on your face because you couldn't say what you said with a straight face.

    I do too, but fortunately for SDSU, I don't think there has been any thing resembling this kind of offer out there for consideration. That could change. Yes Coach Nagy is attached to Brookings, but that can change with the right offer.

    I believe Coach Nagy applied for the Bradley University job awhile back (7 years ago?). Right?
    Nagy was on a short list of candidates but never got an interview. I watched the Peoria newspaper message board for several weeks. Nagy's name never came up as a possibilty. I cant remember who got the job, but our coach was not even close for consideration. There were about seven or eight candidates on the short list as I recall.

    Also Coach Scott Nagy's dad's best friend and assistant ahead of Nagy's dad at U of Illinois, Jimmy Collins, got an interview and was never close. Scott's record at SDSU got him on the short list but thats about all. I think because the Bradley job would bring him home to his roots was about his only interest.

    If Coach Nagy has a couple 20 win season, his marketablity will go up considerably, and if a 500k job comes down the pike, he might just take it.
