Texas zeroing in on Neill Berry

[danielyp29]

was in the article, but not in this thread... Darrin Horn is on Shaka Smart's staff, and that's who Berry (and Small) were assistants to at WKU and also South Carolina for Berry.

Just remember Otz was the best assistant recruiter ISU has had in the last 20 years (maybe ever) and all CSP did after he left was sign the best class ISU has seen in 15-20 years.

Sucks if we lose him and I'm not trying to dismiss it but best to keep everything in perspective.

Agreed. Berry was fine but he was basically unemployed when we hired him. He was not a guy that you can’t recover from losing.

I'd assume Leech was not recruited by Berry as he works primarly the north so can't imagine his departure has any impact there.

Everyone just had to keep talking about how quiet the spring has been. Jk

I gotta think this is a big pay increase like 100k or more. If we can’t compete in pay than he probably has Prohms blessing. Sucks it’s a big 12 team but oh well.

IMO you want your young assistants being sought after. Look at the TOE they can’t pay those guys to leave that staff.

I haven't been to Austin since about 1979. Have I missed anything?

boobies.

I heard Jeff Prohm will take over as the assistant coach if Berry leaves.

 

[rochclone]

That would be a pretty big blow actually

Understatement.

 

[CyTwins]

My top choice would be Kyle Green

He gone. Hope Prohm has a short list of great options to go after. I'm sure he does.

 

[nfrine]

Bad move but I get it. Shaka is on thin ice. The good thing is Prohm is way more involved in recruiting than Hoiberg. Also, I am pretty sure we can get another guy to replace him these days that may be in contact with some other recruits that are solid.

Did Fred recruit?

He gone. Maybe we could poach one of Frans guys

Barta has probably given buyouts to all of Fran's staff. Too expensive...

My top choice would be Kyle Green

Ha. That would be nice, but I'm guessing AJ would stay at UNI.

 

[baagoe]

My top choice would be Kyle Green

Would yield instant results.

 

[Cyinthenorth]

Let him go, then. Never cared much for treason.

 

[Cyched]

boobies.

boobies.

One must never post this word without photographic evidence.

 

[OnlyCyclones]

I hope Pollard's at least counter-offering to drive up his price. Texas needs to pay for it's toys...

Speaking of Texas, when's the last time that school with 60,000 students, in a massive city with no relevant professional sports, sold out a basketball game that Kevin Durant or Trey Young was playing at?
