interesting post from SHU board kingpin

"I'm saying my Rutgers source told me that he thought if Hurley turned the job down Pikiell would get the job. He told me that the day after Jordan was fired and gave me permission to post it on the Trove.

No other coaches were discussed as I received an email from him.

Boltom line, he was right and I will credit him by name if he so chooses. "

12 Halldan1, Today at 8:36 AM I guess Hobbs had a plan

He clearly had a plan. That's how you do it in 9 days.

It's like painting a room. Most of the work is under the paint; spackle, wood putty, caulk, patching, nailing, screwing, sanding. All of which makes the room look better.

My great room needs painting, what do you charge?

This was in process before Eddie's last regular season game. Barring maybe sweeping the B1G tournament, the decision had already been made to replace him.

I guess he had a pretty good source.
Better than anyone around here. Lol

Are you saying Lonergan was not the choice ahead of the Stony Brook coach? Or that they knew Lonergan would never take it?

Kudos to this Seton Hall board Mod..guy has real source.

Like we've said the Seton Hall guys are more tied in. Hurley turned the job down Wed. Pikiell coached Stony Brook Thursday late. They announce the hiring Saturday. This sounds entirely likely and plausible.

also dont forget..it was reported by some national guys before the Kentucky vrs Stony Brook game,that after the game Pickell was leaving for RU....someone copied the blurb here prior to the game..dont recall where it was quoted from.

I think it was local KY tv coverage.
