I hate to see any coach get fired, but I believe it was in the best interest of both parties that Coach Capel was released from his contract.
Today it’s all about recruiting and putting “rear ends” in seats. There was no way for the staff to know of the character flaws with Gallon, Warren, and Mason-Griffith but that’s what happens when you deal with 18 year old prima donnas who aren’t used to the business side of basketball.
My vote for the next coach would be (in no particular order) 1. Mark Few-Gonzaga, proven winner, never had a losing record and obviously can recruit since he gets good players to come to a private university. 2. John Thompson III, another proven winner (G-town and Princeton), recruits well throughout the country and has the name recognition needed. 3. Paul Hewett-formerly Georgia Tech, won while there, is a proven commodity and can recruit. Didn’t have the best of luck in the end at G-Tech but a new start might be in the cards. Just my humble opinion.

It is not ridiculous to mention Sherri Coales. Why is it OK for Geno to coach UCONN girls but not have Sherri coach the OU guys? Her offensive schemes are much more exciting and effective than Capel or Sampson. Besides OU should be a trend setter in BBall just like Football.

Just don’t touch my KU or KSU for that matter! (not an ulum, just a native Kansan). They have a good coach and are doing well.
Pat Knight, the young guy (I can’t remember his name) who was let go a couple of years ago at Missouri was a good coach as well.

I like the thought of Stevens (Butler) or Tubby Smith as the next OU coach, but along with them, bring in Mark Price as an assistant. Classy guy with coaching in his genes.
