WIU Basketball will always be what it is unless you do something outside the box to give it a chance to be better (I will say Jim Molinari did great things while here)
my suggestion, while controversial. Call Bob Huggins. Redemption tour, put WIU basketball on the map. (Interviewed with Mcnese State and Cleveland State last year. He’s still got the itch. See Rick Pitino’s success)
It’s time…

Man, I do love me some Huggy Bear. I doubt we could afford him but it would be one hell of a hire and would put some studs on the bench and a few people in the stands. Gotta come to Macomb with that legendary stool though.wiu2008 wrote: Mon Jan 26, 2026 2:49 pm WIU Basketball will always be what it is unless you do something outside the box to give it a chance to be better (I will say Jim Molinari did great things while here)

I don't know the answer. Smarter people than me do. How has Western sports faired when a new coach hire is an assistant that has been elevated?
Across the board? It has never yielded success. Not once.

That’s a rough list.
Billy wright-terrible
jared elliot (what a disaster hire arguably the beginning of the end for wiu football)
Charlie fisher to a degree.
beudreux off to rough start
hendrickson did ok with Patterson players.
just what I can think of off the top of my head.
