Selection Committee
MSU Just announced the selection committee for the new Basketball head coach. I find it very interesting and positive to see Harald Frey and Stu Starner's name on the committee.

Re: Selection Committee
Stu is the only one who knows jack. They never even got a hold of Nico. But what would the VP of basketball operations for Nike know about coaches out there. What a f'in joke. Leon is a dip ******.

Re: Selection Committee
Some people just seem to need to find something to be pissed off about. I think this is a really good committee. Choosing a coach has a lot more to do with a whole host of things, not just X's and O's basketball things. Having Harold and Stu on there is great. Perhaps they considered that it may be something of a conflict since MSU is an Under Armour school and Nico works for Nike? I don't know. I wouldn't have minded seeing his name on the list, but I'm not going to call Leon juvenile names because he's not on there. These selection committees have helped find us some pretty good coaches in the past, I'm happy to see where this leads us.

Re: Selection Committee
Many folks probably don’t know them, but Terry Leist and Rainey Peuse are both really good people that are very smart also. And they are big athletics fans. I also like this Committee. Stoked that Harald is part of the process.

Re: Selection Committee
I know Rainey. If you think she should be on this board over Nico, you're wrong. I know for a fact, that Leon didn't even call him. That's how the dude rolls. Nice guy. Sorry ass AD.

Re: Selection Committee
Didn’t say she should be on there over Nico. Just said she and Terry are both good people who will help the selection process. Sorry you have such a hard time with Leon....let’s see who we get as a coach and evaluate agin in a few years.

Re: Selection Committee
Yes, sounds like he may have a problem with the AD

Re: Selection Committee
I don't know Nico personally, and like I said I would have been happy had his name been on that list just because I know his position in the basketball/Nike world and he was one of my favorite players on the last team I really care to remember at MSU. That said, I don't understand why that means he should have been contacted to be part of the selection committee. I think each person on the committee brings a unique perspective to choosing who to recommend for hire, and although I don't know several of the people personally, I know who they are and I'm happy with the committee. Remember, the committee only makes a recommendation for who to hire, the final decision is up to Leon and the results in a few years will definitely rest on his shoulders, not the committee's. You've been quite clear from Day 1 that you don't like anything about Leon, and I don't know the guy personally but I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt and see what he is able to do with this coaching hire, in addition to the other things he's in charge of. I don't understand the vitriol towards him, but whatever. I will wait and see what comes of this before getting all up in arms about it.

Re: Selection Committee
Peter didn't listen either. And here we go again. Leon not making a call.

Re: Selection Committee
And to take it a step further. I think a lot more publicity would be made having a Nike employee sitting on a hiring committee at a Under Armor sponsored school than we need. And look at the issues going in nationally with shoe brands having there hands in recruiting. This is not the year to have him on a search committee. In the future? Maybe. But definitely not at this point in time

Re: Selection Committee
Nope. Alumni and past player. He never got a call to say "I can't be on the committee, but I'll help." Leon is a little chickin ass bitch. He's afraid of anyone who knows anything more then him. It's just the truth. Don't give two gobs of goat ****** who doesn't believes me.

Re: Selection Committee
Wow. Take it easy. Nobody said they don’t believe you, I’m quite certain you’re right that Leon didn’t contact Nico. He probably didn’t contact Hatler, Quadre, or a bunch of other former players either. I don’t exactly understand how that makes him a “bitch” or anything else. You’ve had a personal beef with him since he came to MSU, and like I said, I’ve never met the guy so I don’t like him or hate him. I’m still in the wait-and-see mode in how I feel about him, because he still hasn’t had anything like this come up under his tenure yet. Did his dog take a sh*t on your lawn or something?PHAT CAT wrote: ↑Fri Mar 22, 2019 7:19 pmNope. Alumni and past player. He never got a call to say "I can't be on the committee, but I'll help."

Re: Selection Committee
