One of the things I noticed after Juwan got the boot Friday is that Eisley was MUCH more involved on the bench. Oftentimes looked to be calling out sets next to Martelli.
I know there is this idea that he isn’t involved but I took that to mean he is highly involved on the offensive side of things.
That means Romeo Weems is a candidate to transfer since Leitao hired his AAU coach to be his assistant coach. I think he’s probably UDM or Oakland bound
I never brought into the Weems hype. Saw him play in HS a couple times and came away unimpressed with him. More of a mid-major type with some potential to develop into a solid player.
I hear chatter that Tommy Amaker may also be a candidate for the BC job. Since he’s at Harvard he wouldn’t have to move and his wife wouldn’t have to quit her job @ Harvard.
I’m sure that Earl Grant is a great guy and a good coach but I’m not sure he’s the one to lead a program with the same number of winless conference slates as winning conference records (one each) in the past 11 seasons. Oh, and that winning conference season? That was in 2011.
Maybe it’s harder to win at Northwestern but it’s a very good job. Collins got a top 15 salary and a long extension just for making the tournament once.
