Also they hired CSA as the search firm. If they were going internal there would be zero reason to hire the search firm. The coaches are still recruiting because they are still under contract. There is no guarantee any of them are still on staff and they are not going to hire a coach and then force the assistant staff on him. why still recruit if u may not have job in a few days. How can u recruit or even offer a kid with that hanging over your head.whatcab they tell a prospective recruit. Easy, you’re under contract. If you bail on your job responsibilities while under contract you won’t be long for the profession. This is how it goes during coaching changes. When Waters came to CSU he went months without naming his final assistant even though everyone knew who it was going to be because DeSimpelare was still under contract at Rutgers and he was back in Jersey taking care of business until the new Rutgers staff was brought in. It happens all the time.

Mostly the job is based around keeping everyone from leaving until the new coach arrives. The recruiting isn’t great right now but you stay in touch with anyone that is a target especially if you were the primary recruiter because if you are not kept you might bring that kid with you to your new school.

Wonder if the CSU job is one of them? Would fit the mold of longtime assistant in major D1 Hoops, is a minority candidate which is important at CSU, and has Ohio roots with his time at Xavier.

I'm pretty sure that CSU would not join a bidding war for a coach. This is a name that was thrown at me for CSU. Not sure how much there is to it. CSU wouldn’t be bidding against Xavier and Georgia. Georgia is going to win that money battle. He is weighing taking less money with a mid major to be a head coach. It’s not usually for top end assistants to take less to get that head coaching job. Gates took a cut and it paid off now he is making way more.

It was reiterated to me today by someone that has a pretty good connection in the coaching world that the CSU job will be a high major assistant or someone with prior head coaching experience. This was a new person that said they would be shocked if it’s one of the assistants.

Garrett did a pretty good job in finding Gates. I don't think it's unreasonable to assume that with a little bit more lead time, he'll do fine this time as well.
I could see another high major assistant like Gates, but CSU has also seen a couple of those guys not work out like Boyd and Garland.

I got a feeling they may after an Ohio State asst. If it's a P5 school they hire from. Interesting thoughts. I looked it up and Ohio State lost two assistants this off-season, one to Illinois State as a head coach and one to Maryland as an assistant. The only remaining assistant is Jake Diebler who is from Upper Sandusky, played in the HL at Valpo and has 8 years of D1 assistant experience between Valpo, Vanderbilt and Ohio State (with additional DOBO/Video Coordinator experience). ohiostatebuckeyes.com/coach/jake-diebler/ Not sure that he would be truly under consideration but he does have an interesting resume.

This was a new person that said they would be shocked if it’s one of the assistants. I appreciate your insights here. Sometimes I think we may have 1-2 of the same contacts, which probably makes sense. But I've heard the same thing RE a high major assistant. I've also heard more than once that it would be a minority candidate.

If we hired Jake Diebler I think that TheOneTheOnly should tell his story about Dielber at Valpo when he was in the student section LOL

The good news is that who ever is hired as the next coach will have a core that can challenge for the top of the HL again. Maybe they will bring 1 or 2 players with them. That should buy the new coach a year to bring in their recruits.

I wonder if Armon Gates is connected… Guessing he could get a pretty good recommendation from a former CSU coach. Maybe 2 as Waters may have recruited him to Kent.

Call it an educated guess, but I’d be shocked if it isn’t Jermaine Henderson.
