Matt Lewis is very young (mid 30s). If you want to see someone with the exact opposite mannerisms on the bench as Will Ryan- Matt Lewis is your guy. Guy is constantly moving around and yelling- his teams play hard too. Not sure he is ready to make the leap to D1 yet.

There is so much we do not know about the behind the scenes dynamic playing out, but it is clear things are not progressing. There is a fundamental disconnect. It is important to understand the implications and impact of your comments on social media. It’s not just about wins and losses, it is about peoples lives and their families. I’ve come to the conclusion that some major changes are necessary with the Green Bay men’s basketball program. What that entails will be painful for those directly connected to the team. During this time fans need to show compassion for the human and very personal impact of the changes. In the end, moving on will be healthier for everyone. Letting the bleeding continue will serve no one who has invested in the program. With a new direction those on social media need to make a commitment to respect those whose lives are being impacted. Those people should also invest more than just posts on social media. Well said, and good advice beyond the sports world.

As I mentioned earlier, I would hire Lewis' mentor Pat Juckem from Washington University in St. Louis before I would hire Lewis. Juckem has more experience and built the UWO program from pretty much nothing. But people have made some good points about the differences between Division 2 and 3 and how much different that is now. So we will see.

Anyone without proven experience and ability to effectively mine the portal will make for a fit that is less than ideal.

While all of this is extremely vindicating for me, I’ve been calling this out since the hire was made all while being told to just be patient, I’m almost more scared about how Moon and the rest of the administration can find a way to mess it up even more.

You make no sense, complain with Coach Ryan and now complain after they fire Coach Ryan. Alright I’ll play, who do you want to hire?

It would be dereliction of duty to not make a run at him. Best non-DI candidate by a landslide. Record speaks for itself.

I can also reserve skepticism that Moon and the admin will do something stupid with the next hire that will not just scatter the current ashes of the program out to sea, but that they’ll shit in the urn too and come to the realization that most worthwhile people aren’t going to come to coach unless they get the bag.

Who do I want? I’ve mentioned a few names before but if I really could get my left field hire, it would be Elliott Stienmetz out of Yeshiva. It’ll never happen, though.

Moon had absolutely nothing to do with hiring Coach Ryan.
