Terrible hire. Of everyone on the board, this was the worst one.

But, will see how he does.

Does this mean you're on board with it now? You're posts the past few days have not been very supportive.

Only thing that worries me is style of offense. He will have to adopt. Which coaches do to the talent they have.

I’m all in!

Truth. It matters not what we think. Reality will dictate itself without our assistance.

WaymanFan · 04-02-2021, 03:22 PM

Welcome aboard, Coach Moser! Time to hit that portal hard!

soonerjunky · 04-02-2021, 03:23 PM

This is a safe hire. I dont mind it, but also wouldnt have mind a swing for the fence on a young guy

Sure I would have....

But hiring a 17 year coaching veteran who has been to 2 NCAA Tournaments and has lots of bad seasons seems off to me.

He's finished last in the Missouri Valley 4 times.

4-14
4-14
6-12
1-17
5-11
4-14
7-11

That's 50% of his conference seasons... 4 of those are last place finishes.

He has finished with under .500 conference records 10 TIMES... 10 out of 14 conference records he is under .500 in his league... That is 71% of the time.

Think about that... OU just hired a coach who finished UNDER .500 in his league 71% of the time.

Defend that.. Justify that.

Feel like Moser is going to be a huge home run or a failure, no in between.

Have to respect Joe C going out and treating the program with respect. Tons of opinions on both sides regarding Moser but nobody can say hiring him isn’t trying to do the best for OU.

Boomer!

Not my first choice but my concern is not his coaching, but recruiting. If he hires some great recruiters, those concerns might be invalid.

I am hopeful and optimistic.

***Najera as assistant and Slim as recruiting coordinator and donor that builds new arena.

I don't know much about the guy so I'm in wait and see mode.

You aren't concerned about a guy who finishes under .500 in the Missouri Valley 71% of the time?

gwydion · 04-02-2021, 03:29 PM

Where did you see this announcement?

Serious request - leave this thread alone. You can clog all the others, but we need at least one without your repetitive rambling.

Most of us are very excited to welcome him!

Something had to have changed for them to reach the final 4.

Most the country thinks it’s a home run hire.

I'm with you and allday on this one.

Moser may not be the perfect candidate, but let's be honest, we may not be the perfect job at this point. But I feel like we got a good one that will bring some national recognition, energy, and excitement to our program. I love LK but maybe that shot in the arm will help boost some of the apathy in fans and donors, that concentrate too much on the LNC, the Thunder, or softball and football to be overly passionate about basketball. I think Moser can help solve this.

Obviously, there are some challenges and we will have to see how successful he can be at recruiting and ultimately putting a winning, exciting brand of basketball on the floor. But I am happy with Moser and excited about our program.

Now have Moser bring the 'stache/Krutwig and Williamson and grab a couple more out of the portal and move this thing forward!

Stikboy · 04-02-2021, 03:31 PM

If it's done, Coach Moser deserves all of our support. Until he starts losing! HAHA kidding, but not really.

Welcome coach! Give us your best.
