Though I know it's totally possible, maybe even 50/50 (or more?) given it's Muir, I really can't fathom Haase keeping his job. 112-109 overall and 59-72 in conference play over seven seasons. No NCAA tournament appearances of course. He has recruited well, but I think that cuts against him because the team has indisputably had talent. There's no "systemic issue" here that has kept them from making the NCAA tournament.
The idea that we should keep him because "we can't get someone better" is crazy to me. We already have a bad coach. This job will be attractive to a good mid-major coach wanting to jump or a young assistant (just because we've failed with that before, like with Haase, doesn't mean they're all going to coach at that level). Shaw left behind a program in tatters, but there is talent on this roster, a bunch of guys coming back and some really good recruits coming in.
