I voted for the WIU Grad I think. It responded with

Thanks for contacting us! We will get in touch with you shortly.

Let's make sure we let the process run it's course toward a successful hiring.

Oh absolutely. I don't think anyone is saying we need to hire someone this week or anything. I don't think there's any harm in us tossing around names that might end up being in the running.
Also, how is it that it seems like there's a ton of decent coaches out there with ties to Macomb? Are there just so many coaches out there that any town can claim a few college basketball coaches or is Macomb a bit above average for that sort of thing (or maybe it's just skewed by the Margenthaler boys)?

Speaking of...

I don't think I would be upset if they hired him, He has experience as a head coach at the JUCO level and has been a D1 assistant for a while. Plus he has a master's degree lol.

I voted for the 1st one and it said the same thing but I don’t have a masters so I’m out of the running.

True, but I think our game against Ball State was something of a fluke because they're having a halfway decent season (17-13).

CMU was doing pretty well too (13-8 overall, 6-2 in conference) until they went on a string of losses, losing 9 straight in February.

Hire me

Hire me

Might as well....being this team was about the worst in the country defensively and via RPI. Even a Bat should be able to do better than that!
