The road to the semis is getting past the weenies and the Cougs. It's doable if we play well (big if).

how soon after the last game will Haase get fired?
RE: MBB - P12 tourney -
PVTree - 03-10-2024
According to this, it will be before the game.

Waiting till potentially the last 1-2 games of the season does more harm than good imo. Also that list of names is horrendous.
James Jones has no coaching experience and Jason Hart is a G league coach. WTF?

well that would be admissions departments as they work independently for grad admissions.
Not sure of which grad schools are popular destinations but it seems a lot of our outgoing grad transfers end up in business school somewhere and the admission rate at the GSB for applicants with no full time work experience is pretty low....
this page shows the distribution of 9,688 grad students by school at Stanford (it also has some other demographic info)

Graduate Students by School Percentage
Graduate School of Business 11%
Doerr School of Sustainability 4%
Graduate School of Education 3%
School of Engineering 37%
School of Humanities and Sciences 24%
Law School 7%

I actually meant what I said - I think seven of our players - and four of our original starters - are seniors. Even if Haase returned, he'd need to undertake a massive reloading, and I don't think there will be enough eligible grad transfer talent available to get that job done.

IIRC, this is the third straight season after which rumors of Haase's impending firing were circulating.
Not holding my breath.
(but fingers are crossed)

Horrendous? Henderson, Langel, Smith, and Mooney very attractive options. Madsen intriguing. Those are probably five of my top ten. (I think we need to shoot our shot with the big kahuna Jay Wright and also guys like Chris Collins, Dusty May, Brian Dutcher, Anthony Grant, and Steve Alford but I recognize somebody like Smith or Madsen is most likely).

That list has no one with any consistency in making the tournament outside of possibly Langel. But perhaps that's the best Stanford can do - even with the attractive offer of 8 years of subpar performance as a job safety cushion plus subsidized housing incentive. Would Brian Dutcher be a possibility? That would be a grandslam hire.

Grand slam is exactly the phrase I used in a post on another site but I doubt it. Just signed an extension and somebody said $10 million buyout.

$10 million would be well worth it and I'm sure some basketball alums could scrounge that together. Farfetched i know.
It really is maddening that this team has/had all the talent in the world but lacked the coaching. Getting one let alone multiple 5 star recruits with any sort of regularity was unfathomable at one point.

Dang, just looked up Isa Silva who never developed here. Averaging 2 points for long beach state right now. =(.
Meanwhile Cormac Ryan and Harrison Ingram took it to Duke the other night.

I'm a pretty casual MBB fan these days, but I'd consider Kyle Smith a good hire. What do people think of the WSU coach? Seems like there has been some online chatter that he and Stanford might be a good fit.

My first thought after reading the post indicating Haase is out was Kyle Smith. He did a great job at USF and coached WSU to a second place finish this year. It would be a home run hire.

While he's coached at Columbia, he doesn't have a proven track record of making the tournament or winning the ivy. He's had one decent season which is this year. I'd like to be more consistent success.

I think you should stick with Haase. Just one more year. He'll turn it around next year.

The GSB is the most difficult business school to get into in the nation. My daughter applied with 3.5 years of work experience, degrees from Pomona College and Oxford, almost a perfect GRE score and didn't get an interview. Of course she is in the non-profit world, so it wasn't likely, but still....
I don't think our basketball players are ever getting in there straight out of college. The admission rate is 4-6%.

On the other hand, the School of Education admitted my sister who did not graduate from high school, but had a degree from UC-Santa Cruz and an MFA from a college with a 100% acceptance rate. Good enough to get her into SUSE.
