Because of all the experience he has gathered playing all over the world, Julius has been essentially a player/assistant coach on most of the pro teams he has played on lately, as well as the Nigerian national team.olldflame wrote: I REALLY like the idea of bringing in an alum like JUICE as an assistant.Is he coaching anywhere now? If not, that seems like a really bad idea to me.

The last thing we need is a guy who's learning on the job at the D-1 level.
Hold My Own wrote:And yes, Juice wants back here badIf he hasn't already, SOMEONE (hint, hint) needs to arrange for JB to meet Julius face to face for more than a quick handshake. Juice is an impressive person, with a dynamic personality, and while he may not have much coaching experience per se, his basketball resume is pretty impressive....... If nothing else DIVERSE!

I'm guessing that Kyle Getter spends a lot more time doing his job and a lot less time getting gladhanded by the Thomas Road crew.RagingTireFire wrote:You think Kyle Getter is better to have than Juice?olldflame wrote:all the experience he has gathered playing all over the world, Julius has been essentially a player/assistant coach on most of the pro teams he has played on lately, as well as the Nigerian national team.That doesn't count in my book.

Jesus First wrote:you guys are not getting the point, Layer was fired by Colorado State on March 12th, 2007. His career record at Colorado State as a Head Coach was 103-106, and was only 31-71 in conference play After taking over for Mckay. After Mckay pick up and left Colorado state for a better job, sounds familar doesnt it[/b] Layer is not a Good head coach, which hes proven at Colorado state going 103-106 and 31-71, What makes you all think he will do better at Liberty with allot less resources and talent then he had colorado state. I do believe soucie and Layer are good assistant coaches, but thats all they are. Plus its clear that, its a matter of time when Mckay will get another shot at head coach at a bigger school and when that happens Layer and Soucie will Leave Liberty and Go with Mckay.If we loose Recruits and current players transfer, then so be it we will be much better with a new coach and staff. We want a head coach like Danny Rocco who truly beliieves in LU and has a passion for Liberty, not just somebody using us to get a better Job. What makes you think Soucie can even be a good Head Coach anyway, hes always been in Mckays Shadow. I pray that Jeff Barber not only gets a great coach, but somebody who will truly wants to be here for more than 2 seasons.Who are you yelling at?
