But I guess I need to set down the "homer glasses".

I think Keatts has done a great job here in short time-pretty hard to argue the facts. I don't know why you guys are so hard headed about something so obvious. He got the L'ville based on Harrell going there. Otherwise he is not sniffing a job there. Good for him,he was able to play the cards right and ends up at UNCW.

The guy had NO chance to be hired at Louisville if Harrell does not go there with him. Don't bury your head in the sand,the facts are there. He was a recruiter there and don't bring up the associate HC crap,it means zero. Harrell won a NCAA title for Pitino and he threw Keatts a bone. If he was so important there you would think Pitino would try to keep him but he left for the first job he could get. He will do the same thing here and he should. Take the homer shades off and do a research on him,you will quickly see that it is widely known how he got the gig at L'ville.

I've done the research and don't agree with you at all. Certainly that didn't hurt, but you don't just elevate someone to Associate HC just as a favor. You get that designation because you were a good assistant.

Nice try,every L'ville source says otherwise but you know it all.

Mullet's reaches are getting more and more pathetic.

Absolutely no way he gets a job over one recruit. With Hargrave housing so many future NBA players and high major recruits, Keatts had a direct connection to high level recruits. THAT is why he ended up at Louisville. Harell was simply one of many that they expected they would have a shot at.

I get it,you are right without doubt. All high level D1 programs hire high school coaches. He just happens to be the only one I know of.

Assume you do know he was assistants at the D1 level as well as coaching Hargrave prior to Louisville right? I'd expect you to know, but ignore this fact.

Let's see. Keatts started as an assistant at South Western Michigan JC. He then went to Hargrave first as an assistant his first two years. Then as head coach. He left Hargrave for two years as an assistant at Marshall and then back to Hargrave. Hargrave's success did not start until Keatts arrived. His record there was 263-17. In ten years he won 2 national championships and was runner-up 3 times. He produced 103 D1 players, most of whom went on to Louisville, Virginia Tech and Florida State. He then went to Louisville for 3 years and was named the #1 recruiter in the country.
But yeh, it was all about one player that Pitino offered him the job. Give me a friggin break.

Your ignorance isn't a very solid argument.

"It's shortsighted to hire a guy for one player these days," said ESPN college basketball analyst Jeff Goodman. "That guy's going to be on your staff, probably for a while, and if you can't recruit beyond that one player, you're carrying dead weight."

Todd Simon, moved from Findlay Prep in Las Vegas to UNLV in 2013.

Kenny Johnson, who is now at Louisville, started as a high school assistant and AAU head coach with the respected Team Takeover program in the Washington, D.C., area, before coming to Indiana in 2012 by way of one year at Towson.

A few others that with prep/AAU experience:

Rob Fulford (Missouri asst)
Alan Huss (New Mexico asst)
Drew Adams (Bradley asst)

Maybe Brandon Clifford can package Chuck to get an assistants job

What player went with those coaches when they the job is the better question. You guys are pretty freaking naive,its a big mean world out there and I am not buying for one second he was hired based on his HS wins.

He wasn't. He was hired based on his hs wins combined with college assistant experience, and basketball knowledge.

His success in two years with a UNCW team that was previously a dumpster fire proves all of that.

Perhaps if you left your basement once in a while and ventured out into the big mean world you'd have a better perspective. We're not the naive fools you seem to believe we are.

Good coach with a proven record of success, directly connected to a developmental HS program with a proven record of developing high level recruits, and a high level recruit ready to go on to the next level. Let's not forget, after Harrell he also lured a transfer from GMU who ended up being the MVP of the NCAA finals...what was his name again?

Keep changing the target all you want, but you're wrong. It's pretty obvious, but to answer your question, here you go:

Coaches connections:

Todd Simon (UNLV):

Christian Wood

Rashad Vaughn

Justin Jackson, 2016 forward (not UNC's Jackson)

Kenny Johnson (Louisville):

Stanford Robinson

Troy Williams

Noah Vonleh

Rob Johnson

Max Hoetzel

Rob Fulford (Missouri):

Montaque Gill-Caesar

Alan Huss (New Mexico):

Sam Logwood

Drew Adams ( at New Mexico):

Obij Aget

I think you guys want to believe all this stuff is done on the up and up and I don't buy it for one second. I also don't think Pitino had zero knowledge of what went down there for years on his watch. I guess we will find out part of the real story at some point in the next 10 years.

Matt Brady has been hired as an assistant at La Salle.

Delaware has hired a new coach:


http://caasports.com/news/2016/5/25/MBB_0525161539.aspx

Martin Ingelsby Tabbed UD Head Coach

NEWARK, Del. - University of Delaware Director of Athletics and Recreation Services Chrissi Rawak announced Tuesday afternoon that Notre Dame assistant coach Martin Ingelsby has been selected as the Blue Hens' new men's basketball head coach.

One of the top young assistant coaches in college basketball today, Ingelsby will be formally introduced in a ceremony on Wednesday, May 25, at 11 a.m. in the Bob Carpenter Center Auditorium. The announcement will be carried live on http://www.bluehens.com.

A native of Berwyn, Pa. and a former standout player for the Irish in 1997-2001, Ingelsby, 37, has served on head coach Mike Brey's staff for 13 seasons, including the last seven as an assistant after serving six seasons as coordinator of basketball operations.

Brey served as Delaware's head coach for five seasons (1995-2000) and led the Blue Hens to NCAA Tournament appearances in 1998 and 1999.

While at Notre Dame, Ingelsby has led the Irish to eight NCAA Tournament appearances, including consecutive berths in the NCAA Regional Finals in 2015 and 2016. Notre Dame went 32-6 in 2014-15 and followed with a 24-12 mark this past season.

Ingelsby was a three-year starter at point guard and averaged 8.2 points and a team-high 6.4 assists per game as a senior in 2001-01 when he led Notre Dame to the NCAA Tournament for the first time in a decade. He earned his degree in marketing in 2001.

Before joining the Irish staff in 2003-04, he was an assistant coach at Wagner College in 2002-03 and helped lead the team to its first ever NCAA Tournament appearance.

On paper this looks like a decent hire.
