ORU82 Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 Although not definitive, Saul Phillips has let it be known that he has coaching options that he is looking at. Where and with whom is unknown. He does claim to being looked at regarding other coaching positions. He also was at NDSU's play-in game with North Carolina Central in Dayton last week cheering on the Bison. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet Sutton still regrets not parlaying the Tutt/Green success to a step up the coaching ladder. Would SDSU give Saul Phillips a look? I think a school at ORU's level should aspire to be searching for a new coach every 5-6 years. Similar to what Murray St. has done. 1 hour ago, ORU82 said: Although not definitive, Saul Phillips has let it be known that he has coaching options that he is looking at.

ORU82 Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 SDSU promotes Assistant Coach Eric Henderson as their new HC in MBB. Coach Henderson has been an assistant in the program for 3 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Cornelius Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 SDSU just lost the commitment of Caleb Grill (KS Basketball and Track athlete of the year) who signed with them over Nebraska, Washington State, Texas Tech, & several MVC schools. I assume he will follow Otzelberger to UNLV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A better school/conference/coach than UNLV, and closer to home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't understand SDSU's move at all. If the assistant couldn't secure Grill and Jenkins why not conduct a search? Now they may be stuck. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's an interesting read about an Austrailian he has been recruiting for over a year at SDSU. https://lasvegassun.com/news/2019/apr/01/shooting-guard-jonah-antonio-emerges-as-recruiting/ “Prior to him leaving South Dakota State I asked him, ‘Do you think there’s a chance you leave?’” Antonio said. “He said, ‘If I do, it has to be a great situation. And if I do, I want to continue to recruit you and I’d like to take you with me.’ He wants what’s best for me. He said, ‘If UNLV is best for you and if you’re comfortable with UNLV, then I want you.’” Otzelberger must have gotten his point across, because Antonio took to Twitter on Saturday and announced that UNLV is among his final three college choices, along with Seton Hall and SMU.
