I wonder if this means Looney will interview Sunday or Monday?homeytennis wrote: ↑Fri Mar 29, 2019 10:06 amPoint Loma is in the national championship game on Saturday.
Are we sure about the above names? I have heard (I know it’s all rumors but for what it’s worth) that Hill is not involved and that Purdue’s Steve Lutz IS interviewing.Helcat72 wrote: ↑Thu Mar 28, 2019 2:54 pmDanny Sprinkle. Ex Bobcat star guard asst at Cal Fullerton.
Andy Hill — Hill has worked for former University of Montana Hall of Fame player and head coach Larry Krystkowiak over the last eight seasons at the University of Utah.
Jono Metzger-Jones — The current UC Davis assistant spent five seasons as an assistant at the University of Montana, the first three working for Wayne Tinkle and the last two working for current Griz head coach Travis DeCuire.
Jim Shaw — Shaw, an All-American at Western Oregon in 1985, is now in his fourth season as the head coach at his alma mater. But his first coaching job came in the Big Sky Conference back in 1986.
Ryan Looney — Looney’s Point Loma Nazarene school earned the No. 1 seed in the Division II West Regional on the way to winning the regional title. The 29-4 Sea Lions will face Queens (New York) in the NCAA Division II national tournament on Wednesday night.
Like wise mid week I had head Jono Metzger Jones did not make the final 5 but Ben McCollum of Northwest Missouri state was on the to be interviewed in Bozeman short list. At the time I thought Coulter seems to get these ting right and went with it.Willneal wrote: ↑Sat Mar 30, 2019 7:36 amAre we sure about the above names?

Are these Big Sky officials? Pretty questionable calls.Bobcat4Ever wrote: ↑Sat Mar 30, 2019 1:48 pmDid anyone else watch Point Loma's semifinal game? 10 assists on 27 made baskets. Only three players had assists, and only three assists came from other than the point guard position. A lot of one-on-one play. Maybe the defense dictated that? I'd like to know what you all thought. There are many of you far more expert in the game than I am.
D1 players?homeytennis wrote: ↑Sat Mar 30, 2019 3:22 pmThe champion had an undefeated season. Looney coaches that way and always has even at Eastern Oregon. If he could get players to come to Lagrande, Oregon he can get them to Bozeman.
I think it was more about NWMSU's defense. They were suffocating. They didn't have any flashy players, but all 5 on the floor were solid in all phases. Their 2nd national title in 3 years and undefeated this season. That's amazing. If that coach is a candidate as Mslacat speculates it would make sense. He's an Iowa guy so maybe Costello knows him? The other possible candidate, Steve Lutz, is an assistant at Purdue-who is leading Virginia by one at halftime in the elite eight.
Wow. Sounds like everything you would want in a coach. I hope he is an applicant.BelgradeBobcat wrote: ↑Sat Mar 30, 2019 8:04 pmThis guy is incredibly impressive. He's turned a basketball team at a football school in the boondocks of Missouri into a powerhouse. https://www.kansascity.com/article228418944.html
