The Exodus Continues

PrintJust caught this Tweet from John Hunt over at the Oregonian:
Another Ducks hoopster has decided not to wait around: Matt Humphrey will transfer.
When Drew Wiley transferred to Boise State, that was one thing. It was pretty clear he wasn't a Pac-10 player. But now we have talent, a guy who was perhaps our most (only?) clutch player last year bailing as well. Guys who are even thinking about leaving have to do so soon, before everyone's scholarships are taken up by incoming freshmen.
I've given up on any thoughts of salvaging a recruiting class long ago (and I firmly belive that if we had pretty much any coach in place, the Terrences would have been ours), but now what little talent we have is starting to bail as well.
I fully expect that we're not done yet hearing about transfers. I have heard various rumblings about Sim, Crittle, Dunigan, and Wilson all being possible candidates to jump ship.
We've got nine scholarship players next year without Porter, Wiley, and Humphrey (ten if Catron wins his medical redshirt). At this point, we aren't getting any freshmen that are going to contribute. Say Catron loses his appeal for a redshirt, and Sim, Dunigan, and Wilson all decide to follow Wiley and Humphrey out the door?
We are perilously close to an epic disaster here. You see the carnage that was left at Inidana as Kelvin Sampson was booted out?
Message to Knight and Kilkenny: you need to accept the fact that you may not be getting your marquee name to open the arena. But if you keep this coaching status in limbo, you are going to have not only a no-name coach, but no talent, either. There are lots of coaches out there who would love this job: Mike Rice, Cameron Dollar, Terry Porter, Mike Dunlap, Randy Bennett, etc. (just no to PJ). But its time to get this done and try to salvage what we can for next season.
The longer we wait, the bigger the hole have to climb out of.

I had thought that PK2 was going to pull this off
but now I don’t think he can. Schroeder’s column on Sunday said that he was going to spend the day “doing research”. He met with our players almost two weeks ago and promised them that he was going to get this done. Can’t blame Wiley and Humphrey for looking out for themselves as it doesn’t appear we are anywhere close to hiring a coach. No freshmen coming in to fill vacancies and a possible exodus of players. We are going to lock up 10th place in the conference for years to come.
It didn’t have to be this way! After the newness of Matt Court wears off, attendance will suffer and money will be tight for all of our other programs when the Matt Court bills need to be paid. This is a disaster!
The newness of Matt Court will only last a few games. Fans ultimately want to see their team win more than a new shiny arena.
As an investment, they need to win. Even if we weren’t going to pull in recruits this year, we could get a head start on next year. I personally don’t see this situation getting better the longer it takes.
I might have missed it somewhere before, but has anyone given thought about finding a new women’s basketball coach, and moving Paul Westhead over to Men’s? I know his style didn’t work too well last time at the men’s level…

It’s not a disaster. This is not going well, obviously. But we are not doomed to the bottom of the Pac-10 for years.

It think it is safe to say that we obviously will be in the cellar this upcoming season.
Hopefully by the time next season rolls around, we will be in better shape.

I sure hope that it is not true.
I just do not have much right now to hinge any confidence on.
Self-anointed President of the Kenjon Barner fan club.
How many people still think Kent should not have been given one more year?
Anybody? Anybody?
So if I read this right, just hire anybody to get a coach in the door so to avoid an epic disaster?
NO THANKS! Once again, if you are going to fire Ernie Kent, who are you going to get!
What a cluster!
Everything else that has happened recently...
no big deal business as usual to me. This, EPIC FAIL! With each passing day and all the negative press the likelyhood of hiring anybody of quality gets less and less. Why? Well it is like a house that has been on the market for a long time. The longer it has been on the market the more weary people are of the home.

no
I didn’t say hire anybody. I listed some people who are widely believed to be good, up and coming coaches. I didn’t say hire PJ Carlesimo or the first name that walks though the door.
Having a stupid hiring plan is not a reason to say in retrospect we should have kept Ernie Kent.

IT ABSOLUTELY IS. In business, you don’t fire somebody that is ESSENTIAL to the operation of the program unless you know you can replace said person. Pretty sure head coach is essential to the operation of a team.

We would have been at the bottom of the PAC-10 next year, so if we have a debacle and eventually get a good coach (who takes a few yeard to get thing going) I prefer to see potential thank continuous sucking.

Calm down
This needed to happen sooner rather than later. Look at the class Humphrey and Wiley were in. Look how big it is. Trimming the fat off of it now, rather than a year from now, actually gives whomever the new coach is a head start. You’re gonna suck next year and you were gonna suck either way (no offense but it’s true). Taking the hit now, rather than keeping some guys from transferring is a good thing.
A class as big as this just isn’t a good idea and it’s Kent’s fault for having no balance. The top talent in the class will prevent the fringe guys from playing, leading to transfers. It’s a normal thing.
Oh, I knew some of these guys were leaving
and it is needed. This sophomore class is WAY too big. But I also thought we’d have some freshmen to replace them. We COULD have been good next year with the current roster plus the Terrences. We’re pretty much assured to suck at this point.

I think the Terrence's were a long shot all along, though
That wasn’t really directed at you, but more the panicked masses. If you didn’t fire Ernie, you could be screwed in the future. With a new coach, Oregon was going to have to effectively punt the upcoming year. Whomever the new coach was going to be wasn’t going to be able to effectively establish himself in recruiting in the area to make an impact. At this point, and even if one was hired two weeks ago, it’s a situation where you say screw it, work with what you have, try to add something and try to nail next years class.

I think the Terrences were looking for a good reason
to MAYBE stay home and make a name for themselves in Oregon history. They were a longshot, but who knows, with the right and timely hire, what would have happened.

Remember ... Humphrey had knee surgery last year
He was awesome in the UCLA game.
Basing an opinion off of a few games is dangerous
Sim, Longmire, and Williams have all been better offensively than Humphrey. I know a lot of people fell in love with Humphrey because of a few games, but this is by no means a devastating loss.

You're incredibly focused on positions
You don’t need a “2”. There are guards that can be guards. There’s quite a few long guards on the roster that can play, just like Humphrey.
by Brian Floyd on Apr 20, 2010 12:25 PM PDT up reply actions
Wilson, Williams, Sim (if he stays) and Longmire can be a decent 3 man rotation of the 2 and 3 position. Add Singler to that for the 3 and you have 4-5 guys to play two spots. How is losing Humphrey devestating?

Why aren’t they twos? We don’t know what Jamil Wilson can do yet, and Longmire is more than capable of defending two-guards.

Seriously? Wilson played two almost exclusively last year. Longmire can easily be a long two with Armstead running the point, or if you need to get him minutes. and Williams? Please, I don’t even know what to say

They can be HYBRID
TWO guards that work situationally. Yes Longmire can DEFEND twos. Hell no is he offensively apt for being a two guard. Williams (please) what? Please what? The guy does not move off the ball or create his own shot at this point. Wilson remains to be seen. Who is your PURE two guard?

Williams … The guy does not move off the ball or create his own shot at this point.
You CANNOT BE SERIOUS!!! So name me one guy on this team last year that moved off the ball or created his own shot. And if you name Humphrey you’re doing so because of maybe one OT in one game.
Williams was consistently better at creating his own shot and the ball was in TP or Armstead’s hands so much, and the rest of the team stood around in that pathetic offense that you wanted for another year that NOBODY moved off the ball well. Gimme a freaking break. Humphrey was not the savior of this team, he was a decent back up 2 and streaky shooter at best. I’d love to have him another year but losing him by no means indicates this team is doomed.

well I have to go to lunch...
but be prepared to battle… You are putting words in my mouth. You made my point exactly. WIlliams has shown no ability to be a two guard so why should I be confident in him at all as a two guard? I never freaking said Humphreys was the savior of the team. I said who is our two guard now. That as all. As far as Kent and another year. My point stands above. I notice you did not even touch that.

But do true 2 guards
we are all talking about swingmen here. There is a big difference. I dont want a guy that can play the 2 and the 3. I need a 2 guard only. End Sarcasm. we are loaded at the 2/3. I like Humpry, but we will be fine.
"The code word for going on two might be, you know, "Mickelson,’’ because he always comes in second – stuff like that.'’
Ernie was past his time
if anything, we should have entered the market a year ago instead of now. Thats the only way this would be much different

I am losing all respect for you
You are putting words in my mouth, misquoting me, or taking things out of context. I never said flat out “EK coached fundamentals” and if I did say something similar it was certainly in a different context. Apparently you so severely reject the idea that we do not now have anybody left on the team that qualifies as a traditional shooting guard that you go to such great lengths. As far as my EK post, you are the one who brought it up again not me. See above “pathetic offense that you wanted to see again.” My point above remains which is, if you are going to fire a coach you better be assured you can get a better one. Posters on this site, the Oregon Athletic Department, and others were guilty of thinking that Oregon basketball was a name brand that could draw a coach. They are so far wrong. I hope to high heavens that in the end this turns out well. Right now it is an epic cluster and you are being an apologist if you say anything else. If you are Mr. Bennett what do you say to Oregon now that they have been turned down by Few, Dixon, Turgeon, Stevens, Anderson, and potentially Tubby Smith?
And all this discussion about swingmen and true positional players is making me nauseous. It is functional BY NO MEANS IDEAL!

That makes it a bit clearer. I assumed something like that, but I just had a really hard time figuring it out.
However, logically now, that doesn’t make sense.
EK cannot coach big men.
EK can teach others.
EK didn’t coached fundamentals.
So, if OK can coach other positions, wouldn’t that mean he can coach fundamentals?

I interpreted you comments
in the same way as the others. Its not always the responsibility to the reader to know the intent of a statement, you should have added more qualifiers to make the context clear.
The main point is, we couldnt leave things the way they were. If EK stayed I would not have watched any BB next year, much like this year. You could bring in anyone at all and I would watch to at least see what was going on. Any change is for the better, at least short term.
MY HEAVENS!
Can’t a guy object to somebody misquoting him, taking him out of context, and putting words in his mouth and that be mutually exclusive to any other adhoc ridiculous juxtaposed point?
If you go back and read the whole freaking argument you will see how many “qualifiers to make the context clear” there were. Maybe you, since you assumed critical posture, should do your diligence and go back and read the whole exchange.

You wanting to see that ridiculous offense again for another year… out of context… preferable to the current situation.
Sadly, these are just a few of the times I was taken out of context, misquoted, or had words put in my mouth.

First, we’re dealing with the fundamentals crap above.
As far as Humphrey goes, you weren’t quoted, Matt Daddy was using a rhetorical device to draw a distinction between what he is not, and then lay out what is is, which he did.
Lastly, as far as the offense, you’ve argued for keeping Kent around another year. So, I don’t see how this is a stretch.
But you know what, while these may have been stretches, this conversation has gone off the rails with this crap. Instead of getting all accusatory in these conversations, the easiest way to defuse this is to simply clearly state your opinion and move on.

If you want to see my initial opinion...
See above. Coaching search is approaching epic fail status. Also, two guard situation is grim.
However, enter you, and your keen ability to dismiss all error and move on. For example (just one as there are others), above you say that nobody misquoted me, put words in my mouth, or took me out of context. Which is flat out WRONG. (Matt Humphrey piece was words being put in my mouth not quotation). Then the ensuing argument over NOTHING happens as you fail to admit your mistakes. So how about you admit that, one you came in and taunted me by putting something I said from the past as evidence of quotations, which it was not, then said I was not misquoted, taken out of context, etc. Then, YOU, move along. A simple, you are right, that was not your quote would have sufficed.

Seriously guys... who plays the two?
Who backs up the player playing the two? Who recruits the guy needed to play the two… disaster…
Teondre seems to be in line to start at the two, which I don’t necessarily mind unless we end up with another coach who lives on the perimeter. Sim’s also not a pure point, and could pay the two with Armstead at the one, though I’d be hesitant to have Sim guard pure two-guards for the majority of the game.

coug is right here
we have a lot of interchangeable parts. Wilson could be a 2 or a 3. Longmire, too. Sim could play 1 or 2. Armstead will clearly get most of the minutes at 1.
My fear is that Sim and Wilson will both leave. That leaves us with Armstead-Longmire-Williams. While those are three fine players, it hardly leaves us with any depth.
In the frontcourt, we’re actually in good shape. It’s probably not as dire as I made it out to be. Humphrey just caught me by suprise.

but can you honestly say that you knew this would happen without ernie? What would you be saying if Mike Anderson or Stevens had come here. Don’t sound like a prophet describing events as they happen. That’s called bandwagoning.
I can haz footbawl?
Dude... that is not me.
That is not what I do. I have been concerned about this from the get go. First thing I said to my coworkers, “well, if you’re going to fire Ernie, who are you going to get?” I would never, EVER, fire any of my workers if I did not have a plan to replace them.
I have always recognized Ernie for his flaws. I also recognized him for where he got us. Before EK, nothing, absolutley nothing. So I was concerned that we would not be able to replace him with a better coach because Oregon basketball is not Oregon football which is what I think some of this boils down to.
Replaec EK with a better coach and you will have zero complaint from me. Take a chance on a young coach, eh maybe I’ll complain a little. Can’t find anybody and then end up with a warm body = total epic and complete FAIL!

It wasn’t meant to be condescending. It was serious.
You’re defending having 10 players in any single class (as much as you want to split hairs, we had 10 players in last years sophomore class). There is absolutely no upside to that philosophy. That is a recipe for total disaster.

It wasn’t really that situation. Starting 5 was Chism, Maze, Prince, Hopson, and Williams by the time the tournament rolled around. 5 scholarship players.
In the Kansas game, it was Chism, Maze, Prince, Hopson, and Woolridge….5 scholarship players. I’m not trying to discredit what they did, but even in the Kansas game they had a very talented group of players.

its not as simple as you make it cougfan, because you’re assuming that by Humphrey leaving, we’re going to get a frosh to replace him. We can’t get any frosh becasue we don’t have a coach. You can split up the classes with JUCOs as well, which I think is the route we’re going to have to take at this point.

There's a bunch of ways to split them
Redshirts (didn’t happen which is why you’re in this predicament), JUCOs, and recruiting classes. Redshirts also aren’t ideal in college ball and I’m not a huge fan of them. I oversimplified it for sure, but it’s also not incredibly difficult, especially if you poach (not saying it’s right but it happens).
Either that or you sit on the scholarships, and try to haul big names next year, giving more balance and allow a coach to develop relationships.

It’s not going to be simple and I don’t think any new coach has the misrepresentation that it will be (which by the way may be why so many coaches are turning us down… what you have 10 soph’s, no recruits and have been in the bottom half of the Pac for a majority of the last 13 years… no thanks).
It has to happen, and in my opinion needs to a few more times. Now do I want to see Humphrey go? No. I liked him. Good kid, hard worker, good shooter. Do I want to Crittle, or Dunnigan, or Sim go? No, but this is going to be a transformative process and a new coach is going to have to make hard decisions.
Humphrey only helped that decision, not hurt it.

The Athletic Department gets an F--
yes, that’s two minuses… I know what I’m doing
If the record of Coach Kent was unsatisfactory, and it was, then the hiring effort for our new coach is just downright unacceptable.
Kent had been on the hot seat for nearly 18 months prior to his termination. Knowing that, the implications transition has on recruiting, and the fact that you are trying to make a splash with your ultra slick new arena it is unbelievable that Oregon wasn’t preheating coaching candidates prior to the termination of Kent.
How do I know this wasn’t happening? Simple, they are throwing 3mil/year contracts at anyone who will listen and NOBODY wants in. Seriously, the most high tech program in college athletics, who has proven they can get to the Elite Eight, wants to make you the best paid coach in college basketball and you have no interest? That speaks of poor preparation. What should have been the easiest hiring job in recently history is now a laughable attempt to find the basketball equivalent of Lane Kiffen to put a media salve on our embarrassment. Somebody needs to be fired over this, and maybe somebody (Bellotti) already has been.
but wait
Bellotti said when he took the AD seat that he felt uncomfortable making a decision on Kent. Completely understandable as they had been peers for years. All of this smells of poor preparation, green mistakes, or simply not steering the ship because you don’t want to play captain. All of which fit into the implied reasons for his departure at Oregon.
I love the guy too, and I’m glad he’ll be representing us at ESPN, but maybe the AD spot wasn’t his area of expertise. What was once largely a retired coached position is now closer to a CEO job, something any coach would have a hard time being successful at.
stupid school computer
anyway…Bellotti didnt’ have a hand in on the Ernie decision the whole way. We know this was the doing of the higher-ups. The point is that if the school is trying to make Bellotti the scapegoat, they picked the wrong guy. The thing is, who else were we gonna fire

I know you’re new to ATQ but in general, asking people to explain or back up their claims is not a sign of “stupid questions”. We are a community here and although we encourage different opinions, dismissing someone’s question as being “stupid” and therefore not worth your time to answer is more appropriate for a different forum (ala ESPN or Oregon Live).
Taking time to say “you aren’t a very smart person” could have been spent better explaining your position and helping a community member (who has been here a number of years and provided a wealth of knowledge and insight) understand your point. I think it would have been better for all of us to better understand your position because I know he isn’t the only one that is curious what specifically you mean.

Let’s look at the phrase:
effed up way too hard
It’s the “way too” that gets me. You can eff up (LeGarrette Blount). You can eff up hard (Tiger Woods). But can you eff up TOO hard, not to mention WAY too hard? Is there a level of effing up hard that is still, for some reason, appropriate? I’d say the athletic department effed up a bit. But what is the effing up way too hard for?

I figured that you might have some valuable insight and I was giving you an opportunity to actually contribute to the conversation. From your perspective, clearly the university isn’t doing things the right way. I was hoping maybe you had an alternative plan that maybe some of us could get behind.
No, instead… it’s easier for you to bitch and whine about something than it is to offer an alternative perspective or opinion.
If you want to call me up and insult me, that’s always an option. I enjoy a good verbal thrashing, and heaven knows I need one. (Do you know how long it has been since someone commented on my Momma’s weight?) Your insult not received or accepted – it was lame.
So, you say the university has effed up way too hard. We don’t even really know what the university has or has not done – we only know that as of today, and at this time – there is no basketball coach and some players are leaving. It’s a bad situation indeed. But I’m not going to pretend to know what the better method would have been. Hell, for all we know, they are crossing the "t"s and dotting the "i"s on Mark Few’s new shiny Oregon contract right now. and they are – for god knows why reason – waiting.
See – you think I’m not smart person. (A fine, and maybe even accurate statement.) But at least I’m aware enough to not make assumptions about a situation I know very little details about.
You don’t like the question? Okay. Just remind me never to ask you for any actual analysis on anything, because from what I can see, your opinion is about the same as a storyline in porn. It’s expected to be there, but it really isn’t important.

Oh God, I leave the comments for a few minutes, get back and I’m excited because there are a few new posts. I’m thinking that there could be some good new discussions or comments…
Nah, it was all axemen.

No,
But there is a post a little ways up that seems to have gotten axemen excited.

I cannot say I know what Shu's girlfriend looks like.
I can only presume that she is attractive.
But cougfans GIF file on the other hand, I found to be quite funny.

Dave, I'm ashamed. You've gone down to axemen's level.

Doubtful. Dave is normally on a plane equal with people such as Jason Heyward.

So, I hate going off-topic on posts and I'm part to blame for this
To bring this back, Dave is right with this post. The search committee needs to stop firing for a name and actually make a hire. A sexy name looks good this coming year, but it’s out of the question at this point. Instead, they need to be looking for coaches that are either proven program builders or are up and comers at a lower tier school. It may not look great on paper, but if they can do the job and hold the program above water next year, it’s good. The big splash isn’t coming this year, but depending on who is hire it can come next year.
Holy shit
I haven’t seen this many words wasted on the internet since my 49 page thesis on The Inversely Proportional Relationship Between the Strength of Field Goal Kicks Versus Their Accuracy and How That Is Statistically and Anecdotally Proven by Morgan Flint’s College Career.
Something definitely got effed up way too hard in this thread, but if you shave that something, you can make a nice sweater.
