There isn't even a new coach. For all we know they could hire Jon Wallace to take over, in which case Broadus will be fine. Broadus will be fine either way. It's entirely likely that whoever gets the job will want to keep Broadus but he may want turn it down.
I think the more pressing issue is finding a coach and figuring out who's actually on the roster. We could be looking at fielding a group of walk ons next season.

You guys are nuts. Don't you know what happened at Binghamton?? He never should have been allowed to return to Georgetown. And a lot of good he did. Clean break, no retreads or rejects. Someone young and hungry. And honest.

Guys....there was no way a high level recruit would play for G'town given the direction the program was headed....and it was not for lack of talent. The word on Georgetown in every recruiting circle was that we had the players but not the coach. Broadus with the right coach would work his magic. IF B&G writes it...I tend to believe it.

Whoever is hired as the new head coach, they need to have recruiting connections in the DC area, or else they need to have an assistant with those connections. Broadus would be a great choice if both the new head coach and Broadus are interested in working together, but I wouldn't want the administration to force Broadus on an incoming head coach. Along that same line of thinking, I wonder if a new head coach would be able to get Raphael Chillious as an assistant if Broadus isn't an option.

I agree that the new coach should obviously be able to choose his own staff...but I think that Kevin B. has been a very good recruiter and should definitely get consideration...though short termed, possibly Solomon as well in that my understanding is that he was the lead on Waters.

The new coach needs to have complete control over who they want on the staff. If they like Broadus, and want to keep him for his recruiting contacts that is fine with me, but most of the coaches that have been discussed, coming from major programs, are going to have their own first assistant and recruiting director that they are going to want to bring with them. Might make it tough to find a spot for Broadus on the new staff. I hope whoever it is does give some consideration to keeping some of the past Georgetown players who were on the staff last year just to keep a connection with the Georgetown alums and to show they want past players to feel welcome around the program. The Hoya alums are a valuable recruiting tool if used correctly, even if those people are not part of the staff.

Broadus brought in most every top 50 recruit we got in the JT3 era.

Broadus brought in most every top 50 recruit we got in the JT3 era. Personally, I was unhappy when Broadus was brought back, given the shenanigans that occurred at Binghamton. Reuniting with him was a sign of JT3 loyalty but also the first sign things might not be right in the program, IMO. Broadus is undoubtedly good at his job, I'd just rather he do it elsewhere.

The administration somehow needs to find a way to keep Kevin Broadus in the mix. He's served on the staff for 9 years, has been incredibly loyal to the program, and is extremely talented at what he does. In addition to being a great ambassador to the program and having turned down several other top 25 programs, he's responsible for recruiting the best guys we have year in and year out. Losing Broadus would be a significant loss. But ya'll blamed JT3 for not recruiting good players. Hmmm...

Kevin Broadus, that's my dude. But he'll probably be gone as well. I hope not. He can coach.

Glide, serious question here. If Broadus is such a great coach, was it JT3 that somehow impeded him from coaching the players we had to play better, particularly with regard to rebounding and hitting the boards? Everything that I've read over the years, much of it supplied by B&G, who's always been an insightful poster generous with his inside information, suggests that Broadus did have a principal role in bringing in the highest ranked recruits we've gotten while he's been here. Putting aside whether he was asked to search for point guards rather than combos, I don't understand how we can say that the assistant coaches can coach when we had such obvious and consistent problems over the years. Thanks.

Broadus routinely brought guys like Josh Hart and Daquan Bracey to the table and would at times have to beg JT3 to offer. Those offers never came....in home visits were even less frequent.....it was an uphill battle for the assts.

And yes, the entire staff is likely gone. while they remain on payroll, it's not going to be for long and schools from the power 5 conferences have come knocking on their doors.

The entire staff should be gone. Enough.
