Crean should double down and hire Glen Miller too.

I'm not sure there's a program big enough to handle that much screaming.

Denver certainly didn't improve after firing Scott, even though they finally stabilized their conference affiliation.

I know the coaching fraternity is supposedly small, but I am always a little surprised to see some of the connections made. I would never have thought these guys had any interaction.

Probably not a bad idea. He did a good job at UConn and the program tanked after he left.

Joe Scott is back as the head coach at Air Force, and he's hired Sydney Johnson as his associate head coach.

I'm glad for both of them!

It's about time someone posted this.

He failed miserably at Princeton, and was mediocre at Denver, but perhaps he can find success again at AF.

He was very good at Denver, especially considering how that program kept switching from one poorly fitting conference to another. They were worse before and after his tenure.

Getting the band back together at AF should be doable. They've been playing at a slow pace for awhile, and had some pretty good shooters this year, but their defense, from what I saw, was not really up to snuff. A Scott/Johnson regime ought to be able to pick that up.
