Tyler has proven himself, as he (especially him) and his father have created the # 1 offense in the nation, of all the Kenpom era.
Why not Arizona State University?
Pro's:
ASU wants to make a splash in the Big 12.
ASU wants a new dynamic coach who can energize the fanbase
ASU wants a new coach who can navigate the NIL environment
ASU needs a new coach who can spot talent.
TU is very knowledgeable of the game, the P-5 conference environment
TU has roots in B1G Ten area, Big 12, specifically (Champaign, SFA-Texas, Oklahoma State) a large area to find talent.
TU has the chops to create and maintain the #1 offense
Cons:
Lack of HC experience from TU
ASU will be looked at as a mid major in the Big 12, I mean how many teams will be worse than them when ASU dumps Hurley? (3-maybe 4)???
Fiancee is from midwest/Chicago.......so.......who knows LOL.
I think ASU could do ALOT worse. I hope the kid gets a chance, learn the ropes and then come back and take over for BU when he retires.

why is having the number 1 offense such a big deal?
Lets see what happens come March
-
Yeah, maybe we just have really good players.
-
And now we’re talking Underwood dynasty?
-
Let me know when he beats someone up behind Ye Olde Donuts.

It’s a hole in the wall donut shop on University that’s been there since the medieval times

And references Underwood's Pizza Hut fight story

Maybe Brad should go to Arizona State

I mean without 2 starters, lack of guard depth, Jake in State Farm Arena playing a boatload of minutes, and fouling out....and we still got 90, I mean no moral victories with everyone getting a paycheck....but all things considered, I still like where we will be in a month.

I get that. The “fight” is the part I don’t get. But I looked it up.
-

I missed it

Obviously. You've been busy analyzing a newspaper you don't subscribe to.
-
I thought the Pizza Hut parking lot thing went without saying, but I should’ve known that tempo was way behind the curve on this one too. At least he eventually realized that the McCaskeys were the problem.

#3 assistant coach drama not that high on my radar

Im used to real scandals, like drunk driving accidents and leaving your teammate concussed and for dead.

Doesn't seem to be how it is working out in real life though.

Conjecture, your Honor.

Did Tyler re-invent the pick and roll? Did he perfect 3 point coaching? If not, I'd place him behind Antigua for sure, and I'd say recruiting coordinator is more valuable than "offensive coordinator." I've never heard of an "offensive coordinator" getting promoted to HC outside of football.

Tyler runs the offense allegedly

That’s the word.

is offensive coordinator a part of our analytic basketball

PAMan swears it’s Tyler’s analytics that make the team successful. So PAMan (or anyone else), where will Tyler be head coach next year? UCLA? North Carolina? Indiana?

Never said that his analytics made them successful ..

You spent 10-15 minutes last night hyping his analytics via text. I said the “analytics” were to get tall euros that can shoot, and I believe your response was “C’mon!”

Actually, it was a stronger defense than “C’mon!”
