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.

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!
