The Frank Haith Hiring

Good News: He recruited LaMarcus Aldridge to Texas, he graduated 21 of 22 seniors

Bad News: He coached an ACC team and had a 129-101 record and a conference record of 43-69.  He reached .500 in the conference only once in his 7 seasons at Miami.  Had one NCAA appearance in his 7 years. 

How will Haith do as a coach at Mizzou? Well I should give him a shot, unfortunately for him with my luck being very bad with my predictions lately, I'm not gonna say things are going to fall completely down hill from here and that all hope is lost due basically to the why not idea?...Now could someone have come in a done a better job than Haith? Yeah, prolly..but, the idea now is that Haith is going to be the head coach at Mizzou so its time to focus on the positives and just hope for the best.  He is more known for his recruiting rather than his coaching and he will have a bunch of scholarships to hand out early on in his Mizzou coaching career so hopefully he can bring in some players that want to play and Mizzou will have a shot.  I am trying my best to look at this in the most positive way possible, as with what most ponies would agree with me is a very questionable coaching hire.


also on a side note...I am going with the Chicago Bulls over the Orlando Magic tomorrow.  The Bulls are a 4.5 point favorite and the Magic are going to be without Dwight Howard.  The Bulls already locked up the number one seed in the east but could still use the win to try to get home court advantage throughout the playoffs.
