That would be good for all parties.

Howland underachieved with this year's roster but this is not the cycle I'd want to be hiring in if I were Miss State.

How would this be good for State?

Because thus far he has been overrated AF.
He recruits well enough but that is about it, not enough fire left in the belly.

He took you to your first NCAA appearance in 10 years, and your highest seed in a little over 15 years.
Not sure why this would be the time to want to get rid of him.

Howland is another Stansbury. He is a great recruiter but average coach that underachieves

Why? Who could we get that can do better? He is recruiting well and got our program back to a tournament level.
Yea it sucks we lost but shite happens. Howlamd has us in a good spot. Likely go back to tourney next year

Some of y’all are so stupid, it hurts. We were a shite show before Howland. It would not be good for any parties besides Vandy.

But a better version of Stansbury.

We have the dumbest fans. I wish Howland would hold the player a little more accountable but he's a good coach and a damn good recruiter.

Yet again Miss State fans overrating their program. You aren't getting better.

Enough better this year to beat Florida.
Nonotme is not a State fan so anything he writes can be taken with a grain of salt.
This season was good but we fell short of our potential. Anyone criticizing Howland is just plain ignorant or they have unrealistic expectations.
Let’s look at his four years at State.
1st year/Senior laden team was basically break even.
2nd year/Reset with mostly Freshmen, Q and Holman. Another break even season.
3rd year/Recruiting is continuing to get better. Team breaks through with a 25 win season and a FF NIT run.
4th year/Good season overall but a disappointing loss in the first round of the NCAA (first since 2009).
So Howland has made steady progress and with only 2 Seniors , the future looks bright.
Not sure why Vandy would be even interested in Howland. At his age, I think State is his last gig. Plus he is just now enjoying the fruits of his labor so I don’t think he would be wanting to leave now.
So yes we are better today than we were 4 years ago.

I think Cal is more likely than Vanderbilt.
But beware NoNotMe. Kermit would be the one State would come Calling if Howland left. I doubt he leaves tho.
It's been a long process and quite frankly the N Weatherspoon situation ruined our run this year. But I'm pleased but not excited it that makes sense about the last 4 years

No power 5 team spending millions on a coach should be satisfied making a 65 team tournament once every 4 years and going 0-1.
Combine that with his penchant for sitting quietly while our team resorts to streetball is driving me nuts and I just dont see it getting any better.
He is not a horrible coach but if someone wants to outpay us they are welcome to him from my end.
