       Heilbron delivers the news. Will he go with Geno Ford, who has
       lots of head coaching experience, in an attempt to maintain
       continuity with this core group, or will he look to the outside
       again (recall how he passed on Jay Young when Pikiell bolted)?
       Hard to compete for any existing quality HC’s with what SBU pays
       in the AE. Will prob be Geno Ford or some Top Assistant looking
       for a break into HC ranks. If the latter, look at it as another
       3 year rental.  On another note, I heard Nick Macarchuk is
       available.

       Geno Ford sucks. He is NOT a HC, caliber coach.  He sucked wind
       at Bradley when he was HC there, and his record was brutal.. If
       Jay Young does not take the bait to be SB next HC, SB will have
       to open theor wallets and go all out on a high major coach to
       save face..

       Hammer, Geno had some tough years at Bradley, but had some
       success with other programs earlier. I’m sure being from OH (and
       prob being recruited by Boals now) and his recent HC experience
       will work against him remaining. But, he may have a solid
       relationship with Heilbron perhaps.
       In regard to Jay Young, he was already passed over by Heilbron;
       can’t see him being offered and/or crawling back, unless he was
       really unhappy at Rutgers.
       I’m betting on another high-end assistant being recruited. I’m
       also betting that Akwasi is now gone (either going Pro or Grad
       transfer to a major program).

       I was not in the fire Boals camp, but it seems people got what
       they wanted regardless. Without paying for severance. The Bingo
       defeat was very bad. But I would have loved to have Boals
       continue another couple of years before making a decision on
       him. But he didn’t give us the chance. Oh well.
       It’s a set back. It will slow down the momentum Boals was
       building. He brought in some solid recruits. I really hope they
       don’t follow him to Ohio.
       It’s starting from scratch again.

       Go out and get a get a very promising AC from a Power 5 program
       and pay him.  Boals blows for bailing on his recruits.  And I
       was a fan.
       Anyone want to bet he was bailing before the Bingo game and the
       players knew it?  If so, good riddance.  Totally sketchy move,
       if true, and it would be tampering on Ohio University’s part.

       Good riddance!
       He couldn’t win 1 big game at home.
       He couldn’t control his players with their ridiculous chucks
       beyond the 3-Point line.
       None of his players improved.
       Bye-bye!
       Get a young, tough guy from the northeast, not some hillbilly
       from Ohio.

       In many ways college coaching is all about recruiting. I thought
       Boals did very well in that regard lately.  We had more talent
       on our roster than any AE team (including UVM, IMHO). That may
       have meant more to Ohio than a few bad losses (after all, we did
       have some good wins).
