This is a bummer. He was definitely putting in the work for us recruiting.
And Houston is a talent-rich area for basketball. Having an inroads there, and the attraction of being able to bring guys to play in the DC metro, was great for our recruiting.

i suppose the question now is does Coach Skinn promote Bialkoski or Butler or does he hire from outside?

Based on him already being able to work the Gold Room, I would assume Bialowski would get promoted and Lamar takes Dobo role.
Ah yes, the vaunted gold room pregame speech. Where 75% of the room is trying to talk over the coach or not paying attention because they’d rather focus on being in line for food. Not saying B isn’t qualified or doesn’t deserve it, but doing a pregame talk in the gold room isn’t exactly an indicator of well, anything.

My expectation would be that Bialkoski gets the spot. He’s been an assistant before and is way over qualified to be a DOBO. A move to DOBO wouldn’t be a promotion for Lamar. I personally think he’s better suited for his current player development role.

Can’t imagine Mark would’ve agreed to come here as DOBO if there wasn’t some type of understanding that he’d have the first chance to move up — and Ekanem hasn’t stayed anywhere for more than a year or 2 so it’s hardly a surprise that he’s on the move again.

"Laramie, Wyo. (May 12, 2023) – University of Wyoming Athletics Director Tom Burman announced Sunday the hiring of Sundance Wicks as head coach of the Cowboy Basketball Program. He is the 23rd head coach in Cowboy history. A native of Gillette, Wicks spent three seasons as an assistant coach (2020-23) at Wyoming and spent last season as head coach at Green Bay spearheading one of the best single season turnarounds in college basketball history."

"In his first year at Green Bay, Wicks was named the 2023-24 Horizon League Coach of the Year. He was also named the Joe B. Hall National Coach of the Year, which is presented annually to the top rookie, first-year head coach in NCAA Division I college basketball. Last season, Wicks posted an 18-14 record after the program finished at 3-29 prior to his arrival in 2022-23. That 15-game turnaround tied for the ninth-best turnaround in NCAA DI history."

Ridiculous...Bill Roland would of been much better hire.
 

"He will reportedly continue hosting his Fox Sports radio show while coaching Green Bay."
I remember he was the ESPN 2 announcer for one of our games when I was in the Patriot platoon and he told one of our Patriot platoon guys He had to make the lettering on his sign darker/thicker with the marker so the camera would show it better.
