Rashad Vaughn - Not going to ISU

Re: Rashad Vaughn

He has said that he won't announce until April. Doing it on ESPN or something during Signing Day (April 16th) would make sense.

McD AA game is April 2nd in Chicago. Remember when it was in Hilton? Oh man, how insane would that be this year?

It's a joke that UNLV made the list:

i feel your school needs RV more than we do but i hope we get him!!

I'm sure now they are telling themselves that Vaughn will want to go there to turn it around. To play for a coach that's players have quit on him, for crowds that boo the team, and on channels that no one will watch.

Sounds like Dave Rice has burned his bridges in Vegas.

Forgot all about that. What year was that, and how the hell did Hilton get that?

1999.
I think it is in Chicago every year now.

So basically it was the biggest fail of a phone call ever. Actually, now that I think about it, maybe it was Scott Drew calling in...

"Hi John...Hi coach.....this is Sco...err Steve from Baylor..."

That isn't how CF works. Until every person on the board thinks it is unfunny, there will always be more, and when everyone in the world thinks it's unfunny, CF will say one more.

This site is the king of kings of a joke being told forever. Honest to God, I don't know how some of these people function in real life.

Re: Rashad Vaughn

At what point would Dave Rice be fired? Are they willing to keep him around just for next years class?

He has won 51 games the last two years, his only 2 previous as a head coach. I would say that he is fine for at least another year or two. It would be hard to justify firing a coach that has a winning percentage of almost .750, even though they have been bounced in the "second round" of the previous 2 NCAA tournaments and are severly underperforming this year. I think it may be a slight towards Scott Drew to call him the Scott Drew of the west. If he cant win next year though with the talent they have on the team and the incoming freshman (with or without RV) I would guess that his days would be numbered.

Ames Airport connections vs O'Hare. No brainer.

They interviewed him at halftime and I happened to catch it. Charisma didn't come to mind.

Rice? Yeah, from what is above the table, I am not sure how he recruits so well.
He does of have decent record- Kruger is a hell of a coach.

Re: Rashad Vaughn

Of UNLV'S 6 losses, 5 have come at home. That's just terrible. And their next two games are @UNM and @SDSU. How does any high level recruit with lots of options walk into that?

You have to wonder if the other 4-5*s committed are at all second guessing their decisions.

I guess in his post game after the reno game he said something along the lines of, I dont know what is wrong with this team and I dont know how to fix it. I dont want to look up the exact quote but it was something close to that.
