Maybe we can hire Marshall. There is no chance of him leaving to go to another program based on his "success" at WS. He has proven he can win the BS anyway.

[FlameOn]

I hear Isiah Thomas is looking for a job.

McKay,

If you take the time to continue reading this board, to see how we all reacted then this is for you:

I am shocked. You must be pretty tight with Bennet, I do not see any other reason to pick up your family and leave. An assistant at school where you are consistently going to get run into the ground and only have 3 years to prove yourself, with players that arent that good.(thanks Dave L.) You will be looking for a new home in about 4 years. I hope you enjoy getting your lunch eaten by the other Greenburg. UVA will use you and loose you, so please get back on this board and let us know how you liked it.

P.S. Your "only seth, kyle and anthony can shoot in the first 20 seconds of the shot clock" SUCKED. There are five guys on the Team not 3.

[flameshaw]

Well, so far every coach that has left, or been asked to leave has been replaced with someone who was a step up. Hopefully if RMK is actually leaving, that will be the case as well. Won't be easy though.

[flameshaw]

Hey, it could be worse, he could be leaving for another BS school. Talk about a step down.

Maybe this is going to turn out to be a christmas present...

Bobby Knight!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Christmas Present?

This only reminds me of the Framed picture of two ugly Angels I got from my great Aunt when I was 13.
(and she was normally good for a sweet gift)

Good news: we're leading the Sasser Cup standings

How about Billy Gillispie? lol

To make it simple, BG would be an even worse fit at LU than he was at UK. Heck, BG is even a bad fit for the city of Lynchburg, much less LU. lol

Hey guys, I have watched and played basketball since I was 4. I am a Liberty alum. I will NEVER leave Liberty for greener pastures. Hire me.

good to know you're more loyal than ED

I was upset at Seth leaving, but to me this is a totally new level of betrayal. Now if UVa had offered the head coaching job, I would probably have understood. I would have thought that RM should probably not have been so blunt about God "calling him here" if he was going to jump at the next offer, but I would have understood. But to leave as head coach to be an assistant? I don't care where. To leave this job for a gig as an assistant shows he was not committed, did not intend to stay here, and was looking for somewhere to jump.

Now, is this the end of LU basketball? No. But anything that had been built up in the past few years is down the drain. We will lose all the recruits who aren't signed and will have to start from square 1. The thing that is depressing is that to hear Mckay talk, you would think that this was a guy who was in it for the long hall. Well, I guess I learned my lesson not to take anyone at their word.

You really can't take any coach for his word. Example: Nick Saban, Billy Donovan, etc. Only coaches I would trust are the ones that have a very long established lagacy at a school, like Bobby Knight at IU, Coach K at Duke, Paterno at Penn State, Boeheim at Syracuse...

Dave Glen makes it official!

Sources have confirmed to ACCSports.com that Ritchie McKay will leave his job as the head coach at Liberty to become Tony Bennett’s associate head coach at Virginia.

[jcmanson]

Maybe we can get the Sanders' dad to coach. He is the coach of the Home school national champions.

Do any of our alumni coach basketball?? Matt Hildebrand? I know he loves and is committed to Liberty - great guy too from what I hear.

[flamesbball84]

associate head coach at an acc school? Not a bad gig, sits himself up for a head job at a BCS school in the near future...

[WWJFD]

Not sure if flame fans site keeps all my posts, but tonight i am going to see if i can find what i wrote when rmk was hired 2 years ago. I hope no one gets this the wrong way, but all posters should be treated some level of respect. Whether someone post 6000 times or 1 time, it is to be taken as it is; a thought or maybe a fact. I heard about rmk yesterday morning but i did not want to be run off the board, so i waited 4 someone else to do it. I feelbad for the fans, but i knew mckay was a snake and told u what u wanted to hear all along. May the next coach bring some integrity when he shows up on campus.

[RagingTireFire]

The level of delusion and hysteria is a little too high around here right now. I'll check back later when you've all taken your Ritalin.

[jcmanson]

I don't know if I can trust the next coach unless it's Jerry Jr.
