Purple Haize wrote:Serious question. How will he respond when Basketball is second fiddle to football if he takes either job?He has never had to deal with a Football Program, let alone a Football Program that comes 1st in the hearts and minds of the fan base. It is a legit question.
Sly Fox wrote:2nd fiddle seems to be working out OK at Wisconsin & Michigan State.You don't know Michigan State if you think Basketball is "2nd Fiddle." MSU's success in football is a blip (albeit a sustained one at present).
Sly Fox wrote:As successful as hoops has been from Magic to Izzo ... football remains king in the attention of Sparty fans unless something dramatic has changed in recent years.My wife is a UM fan, but ALL of her family roots for MSU. All I ever hear about is basketball. Even in Football season. Same for MSU fans I knew in Cadillac.

Totally grasping at straws here.

bluejacket wrote:Would rather have Spiker at Army, but Brett Reed is also a strong candidate from the Patriot League.Dave Paulsen was up there a couple of years ago, but he's in his 50's and his last two years at Bucknell aren't exactly blowing the lid off. He was hired at GMU today, which is an interesting hire that either could be truly amazing or a complete bust. I hope Spiker is still on the list.

jimflamesfan wrote:Well a LU plane went to Lehigh per Lang's Twittet so Brett Reed could be getting an interview.It may not be Reed. Princeton great Pete Carril lives in the Lehigh Valley. He may be 84 years old, but heck... he's still Pete Carril! Anyway, I live up here in the Valley. Reed would definitely be making a career step forward in going to Liberty.
