What a great hire for a western school trying to be good at basketball.
The freshman big guy they had would have been so nice to get. He's also doing amazing job bringing in transfers.
I just came away really impressed by this coach
Santa Barbara Coach Joe Pasternack

He won’t be there long. He is a damn good coach. You could see him on bench actually coaching his players and building them up. He got on them when needed but seemed to be cut from a different coaching cloth than Edwards.

I agree I just saw him from about 50 feet away. Yeah he is a really impressive coach. My post was almost a subtle way of asking. So maybe I just will.ItSucksToBeACSURam wrote: ↑Thu Nov 08, 2018 1:49 pm He won’t be there long. He is a damn good coach.

What about this guy as head coach in Laramie?

Unfortunately I don't think it's an upgrade over where he is at.Coeur d' Alene wrote: ↑Thu Nov 08, 2018 3:24 pmI agree I just saw him from about 50 feet away. Yeah he is a really impressive coach.

300,000 in Santa Barbara
Or
750,000 in Laramie
Wouldn't that be a step up? Huge financial decision. Better conference.

Also a big jump in facilities, and Santa Barbara is even worse than Wyoming for attendance. I believe they had an average of around 1500 fans for home games in 2017 and the Pokes were around 4500. I still think Edwards has a few years before Burman does anything with him. Hopefully he figures it out and the Pokes finish in the top half of the conference this year. I'm tired of coaching changes.Coeur d' Alene wrote: ↑Fri Nov 09, 2018 6:47 am 300,000 in Santa Barbara

What is the difference between politicians and stoners? Politicians don't inhale...they just suck.

Everything I found has Edwards at just under $500,000, not 750,000...curious where you got your number from.Coeur d' Alene wrote: ↑Fri Nov 09, 2018 6:47 am 300,000 in Santa Barbara

How far does a dollar get you in CA vs. WY? Between housing, taxes, etc.. Edwards is easily making 2x more.WestWYOPoke wrote: ↑Fri Nov 09, 2018 8:15 amEverything I found has Edwards at just under $500,000, not 750,000...curious where you got your number from.Coeur d' Alene wrote: ↑Fri Nov 09, 2018 6:47 am 300,000 in Santa Barbara

Oh for sure, I'm not arguing that the value of one is less than the other. I was trying to find salary numbers yesterday and all I could find was $500K for Edwards and I couldn't find anything for Pasternack, so I was curious where they got them from.LanderPoke wrote: ↑Fri Nov 09, 2018 9:31 amHow far does a dollar get you in CA vs. WY?

We do have a bigger budget and better facilities but going to a game in Laramie is awful. The arena is so low energy and quiet you could take a nap ( and would have ample room with all the empty seats). This is the fourth year in a row it's been like that. Ever since we laid a turd against Fort Lewis for that exhibition game where we raised the tourney banner. The prior season was the last fun season, even before they made the conference tourney run there were fun games like the New Mexico game.

I didn't figure Edwards was making 750. Just that Wyoming could pay a guy like that for 2-4 years and they know they'll get half back in a buyout when a pac12 school or whoever takes him

It's crazy. There were seriously like 8k at that game and we got beat by a joco school or whatever. There haven't been even close to that many people back since. Shyatt was basically announcing "We suck again!".Pokes fan 24-7 wrote: ↑Fri Nov 09, 2018 2:15 pm We do have a bigger budget and better facilities but going to a game in Laramie is awful.

We go on to have a crap year and then hire someone from that staff who'd never been a head coach before for cheap. Now here we are. Basically Schroyer Era apathy and crowds.
Who the heck buys the lower bowl tickets and never goes to games? It looks terrible

This guys not being mentioned on the lists for the big jobs. Their season is going good but not great.
Irvine has a really good team too and just beat ucsb. Maybe both don't go to tourney. I still think this guy could be a great hire for Wyoming
