If you look at, we have only offered 3 kids from Florida for 2019... Diante Smith, likely going to a "Big" School... Kai Jones is blowing up so will probably be tough to land him and some one named Toumani Camara

1 Guy from Kentucky, Dontaie Allen but not sure if that is Kane's area.

We'll be alright... Coach Grant will find a very good replacement

Realistically at this time of the year, what kind of an assistant can you get that would be a good recruiter too.

I'm sure AG has a short list of candidates to fill the position. Kane came from Murray St with previous ties to AG.There are always assistants looking to upgrade.

I don’t know how much timing matters in terms of poaching an assistant. You go after a top recruiter from a lower program like James Kane or maybe an assistant from a bigger program under a head coach who is on the hot seat. Another option which is not a route Dayton has ever gone down is to bring in the coach who is a package deal that brings you a stud recruit. This is pretty shady but it’s permissable and happens all the time. Of course, Grant has shown that like most coaches he tends to target guys who he has worked with previously. So honestly that’s probably what we should expect here.

All that said, losing Kane does hurt. He’s a rockstar recruiter and also a strong coach. I think he’s going to be a very successful head coach. And I think that could happen in the next 3-4 years. So it wasn’t going to be at Dayton because I think Grant’s here till he retires or is fired and I think he’s going to be given plenty of time to prove himself. Like 5 years at the very least.

But I do have confidence in Solomon and Greer as recruiters so I could see the logic in bringing in a really strong bench coach / tactician and just elevating the recruiting duties and territory of those two. Hypothetically (and I doubt this is Grants’s move) if you brought in a D2 lifer, that could be a good move. Might not be real popular here but it’s hard to say what exactly we need, for me anyway, as the delineation of our staff’s strengths is a bit of a mystery and my hunches aren’t based off a ton of evidence.

The glass is half full. Grant will find a new guy with new contacts. Kane came from Murray St, which is a nice program, but it is not Villanova or Kansas.

Absolutely. You make a good point with regard to new contacts. Assuming you poach an assistant elsewhere from the college ranks then you are opening up new recruiting pipelines. And you don’t just lose the work Kane has done. Grant’s staff should be able to keep pounding at those. So that’s definitely a positive.

But I will say regarding the other point you make, a program like Kansas tends to be very selective going after the highest ranked guys whereas a program like Murray State aims to identify late bloomers and guys who should be really highly ranked and they get on guys early. I’m not saying we wouldn’t want to hire an assistant from Kansas or Villanova but in terms of recruiting there’s a ton of value in what an assistant from a lower program with a history of uncovering diamonds in the rough brings. While the Murray State guy has been talking to hundreds of guys and busting his ass to see as many prospects as possible, I feel like the Kansas guy is just working hard on maybe 20 guys, trying to beat out Duke and Kentucky on the recruiting trail. And that’s a tall order. And let’s face it, an even taller order if that assistant is thinking he can land that guy’s commitment at Dayton.

Probably a good point on Kansas, but we want exactly the path that Nova took to the top.

What has Murray State accomplished that puts them where we want to be? The last three years they were 26-6,16-17 and 17-14 with one auto bid and first round loss from a weak league. Prior to that Prohm had one NCAA bid in four years. I, and most of us, want better for UD.

This is a great point and why I think losing Kane hurts so much. Not only is he the best recruiter on staff, he's also the guy who's had the most experience at recruiting guys at this level. He did very well at evaluating under the radar talent at Murray State. The Racers board when I looked at it loved the guy and said he was responsible for getting many of their stars. We even had a fan come over here and post how much they liked him.

There's real value finding under the radar guys

The other thing I really like him about him was that he had a lot connections in the southeast. That's an area where I think Dayton can make some real headway. There's really not a comparable program to UD in places like Kentucky, Tennessee, Bama, Mississippi, etc. It's the SEC and CUSA level programs

I always find it curious when an assistant from UK, UNC, or Duke lands a job and the main reason given is his ability to recruit.

At those schools, it's not terribly hard. Sure, not everyone can close the deal, but still.

The best recruiters at this level are the ones that can identify and land the hidden gems. Brian Roberts, Chris Johnson, Scoochie type of guys vs. thinking we're going to start landing 4 and 5 star guys on a regular basis. (Some day hopefully, but we're not there yet.)

One of our biggest problems is that the guys we've identified early lately seem to blow up shortly thereafter. Maybe I'm paranoid, but it almost feels like both AG and Archie's staff had such a good reputation for this that it attracted the attention of assistants at other schools.

Iowa State's Steve Prohm is expected to hire Dayton's James Kane as an assistant coach, per multiple sources. Replaces Neill Barry, who went to Texas.

I NEVER said Murray State had accomplished anything we want to accomplish. I definitely agree with you that Murray State is not a program that Dayton is using as a benchmark program. But the best assistants don't necessarily come from the schools you want to be like.

Murray State was being used as an example only because Kane was an assistant there. If I am recalling things correctly, the opinion seemed to be that Kane was recruiting the vast majority of Murray State's top recruits - both the guys they did get and the guys they identified early but didn't land because they ultimately got out of Murray State's league. And with guys like Crutcher, his ability on the recruiting trail seemed to be translating.

MSU has more NCAAT appearances since the 1980's than we do-14 vs. 11-they are not exactly chopped liver.

MSU has been in weaker leagues than we have been in, so we have done significantly better than them historically in the rpi. I just wanted to point out that they have been a solid non-p5 program.

5 guys drafted since 1989


1989 2 4 31 Jeff Martin Los Angeles Clippers[68]
1992 2 14 41 Popeye Jones Houston Rockets[69]
1996 2 17 46 Marcus Brown Portland Trail Blazers[70]
2013 2 4 34 Isaiah Canaan Houston Rockets[71]
2015 1 14 14 Cameron Payne Oklahoma City Thunder[72]

Two guys drafted in the last 20 years is not anything to write home about. Anyway it is not about the NBA draft. It is about winning, getting into the NCAA and winning games there. If UD is setting their sites on being in the same category as a good mid-major, then we will be a decent mid-major.

Anyway we are way off topic from will UD be able to get a new assistant as good or better than Kane?

dont mean to swerve the thread, but when I saw the name Popeye Jones, you betcha!!! I can still remember Murray St being a 16 seed in whatever region they were in, and they drew regional nr 1 seed Michigan State... and sent the darn game to overtime... Man, oh man, Popeye was a beast in that game - something like 35 or so points and maybe 12 rebounds or so... as a sophomore, he tore into the Spartans and never let up... great game...)

Two 1st round picks this decade for a team in the OVC is definitely something to write home about to me. Xavier hasn't had a 1st round pick this decade and Villanova has had 1. In fact they would be tied with Creighton for the most 1st rounders to date since 2010 in the Big East.

For playing in a Conference that's ranked 20 or lower pretty consistently it's an amazing feat.

There's real value in getting an assistant from a program that's been consistently been to able to ID diamonds in the rough. Raw salesmanship is important in recruiting but for where Dayton is in a program it's pretty important to be able figure out whether the 2-3 star guys the program usually gets is the next Stephen Thomas or Brian Roberts

I have no idea what kind of pool of money AG is working with or whether he wants to hire a guy he's got connections too but I'd like to see someone who's done well at a successful mid major program

If AG is going with someone who has a connection to him this might be a guy to watch out for, a guy he recruited to VCU Joey Rodriguez

I doubt it, he was hired as an FIU Assistant in the last month or so by the new coach who came from VCU

We had two grad assistants. What's the chances one of them would be hired? Not quite sure on our coaching staff pecking order. Assume Solomon is the #1 assistant.

Solomon is the Associate Head Coach. Perhaps one of Darren Hertz, Andy Farrell or Devin Davis would move to Asst. Coach. I think there is 0 chance a grad assistant would be hired as an asst.

Usually grad assistants start out at administrative positions like Director of Basket Operations, Video Coordinator, etc. or as full assistants at a lower level than Dayton

Positively. Recruiting is your job lifeline. You must believe you are getting the best recruiter above all else.

Coach Kane on twitter:

I am excited for the next challenge in my career and chance to reunite with Coach Steve Prohm at Iowa State University. However, leaving Flyer Nation and its rich basketball tradition was an extremely tough decision. Going to work with Coach Prohm again was one of the few unique opportunities I could not pass up. I am very appreciative to the University of Dayton, Dr. Spina, Neil Sullivan and Coach Grant for the privilege to coach at such a first class program. I also want to thank the entire Dayton staff and most importantly the players for their hard work all year. Coach Grant is one of the best coaches and people in college basketball. I know he will continue to lead the Flyers to success.

Not to take this thread back off-topic, but simply to clarify an earlier point: Murray State has had 2 Draft Picks in the past 8 years, not 2 First Round Draft Picks, correct? Canaan went in the 2nd Round in 2013, correct? Still better than UD has done, true, but not 2 First Rounders.

Had to turn the video off after that. I won’t say there’s no such thing as “loyalty” in college athletics, but it’s more rare than it is prevalent.

I don’t blame the guy for wanting to improve his lot in life, but I’m not sure Iowa State is a major step up in the world of college basketball. Guess we’ll know in about 24-36 months.

Finally, this just reinforces that, to a number of people out there, we’re a “Betty” and P5 schools are all “Veronicas”.

Truthfully, we don't have a long history of assistant coaches becoming head coaches. There's been a few but not like X and other schools. One can only imagine he believes being an assistant in a P5 conference is a quicker stepping stone to a HC position that being an assistant at UD. If in fact Grant is going to be at UD for a long time, I'd expect to see a fair amount of turnover at the asst coach position because there won't be a path to promotion here.

This is a very long thread considering 90% of the people on here won't remember this dude's name in two months. This will have zero impact on wins and losses.
