Simmons Speaks

Lickliter would be a meh HC hire that would be worthy of discussing the positives and negatives. As an assistant I don’t even see why it’s a discussion.

I completely disagree. Simmons guided a team decimated by injuries to a 17-15 season in a top 8 league. Everyone has injuries but Evansville had a lot more than average. If the injuries were on an average level Evansville would have won 21/22 games and made the NIT. I don't think the program is light years ahead of that.

4 more wins and UE would have been NIT? Just like Bradley and Illinois St. huh? That is what their profile would have liked.

At least the injuries saved us some money by not getting into a C level tournament.

I've heard the Simmons house is up for sale, so it appears he is ready to move on. We should too.
