GDT: SDSU Jackrabbits @ Ole Miss Rebels

Re: GDT: SDSU Jackrabbits @ Ole Miss Rebels

TJ makes me want to get out there and play. We're lucky to have that guy.

My guess is that we will see TJ move on much, much sooner that Scott. He has built himself a nice little coaching resume in a short amount of time. I have no doubt, that if he stayed, he would build SDSU into a powerhouse Mid-Major.

I think it always was the case that TJ would move on and move up in the coaching world if he had success at SDSU. That's life as usual in the mid-major ranks. For instance, if he wins an NCAA tournament game at SDSU he'd very likely be somewhere else the next year. AD Sell needs to keep his contacts list current, I think.

Maybe Ryan Miller will be available if that happens

Personally I think that TJ sticks around at least 2 more years. One more year, presumably, with Daum and one year with essentially "his" guys. However, I am okay with becoming a "spring board" to other jobs. Other programs don't usually cherry pick coaches from bad teams.

Of course he could turn into AJ and fall in love with the town, the school, and the job and stick around for many years.

I think we should put the cart back behind the horse. I’m not against TJ, but he needs some more time before we christen him the next coach K, dean smith, or whoever off the top of my head.

I must have missed the post comparing him to Coach K or Dean Smith.

TJ impressed me last year by the way he handled the beginning of the season. He had a plan and he stuck to it. When the previous coach leaves the cupboard bare of any real experience at PG/SG, it could have been much worse. But he got the team to buy into what he was doing and it paid off by the end of the season. He relied heavily on Daum, as he should, last year. This year I think that we can all agree they are way better than they were to start last year.

Don't discount Brookings and SDSU. TJ knows the fishbowl that is a P5 school. It's not a matter if but when you lose your job at a school like Iowa State.

You said it. He had/has Daum. But to assume he is going to vault up the coaching ladder because of a lucky win in the Summit league tourney is not real realistic imo. I’m not against him, but I think he needs to prove himself more in the next couple of years to be considered to make the move. He might be a big deal in our pond, but remember the size of our pond. Btw, those were just merely examples. But whatever

Lucky win????

They won 7 of their last 10 regular season games ... beat the #3, #1 and #5 seeds in the Summit tournament.

A first year coach, with a team devoid of any guard experience.
