Very unfortunate to lose this kid, but good luck to him in the future.

I wish him well, too. But wish he'd wait to see whom we hire are our next coach. This reeks of tampering, leaving so quickly without waiting to see who the new coach is and where the program is headed. Maybe he just didn't like playing and going to school in New Orleans at a school with no fan base.

Jumping ship before knowing who the new Head Coach will be.....good riddance! Osetkowski improved his game but I expect the new Coach to recruit better talent and win with it.
What other offers did Osetkowski have when he signed with Tulane?

Not hard to figure this has probably been stewing for a while. As others have suggested, it wouldn't surprise me if his next destination was already determined prior to the transfer announcement. Best of luck to him though. He would've been a useful player for the next regime.
I'm hoping local guys like Frazier, Paul and von Julien give it some time and let the coaching change work itself out before making their decisions about their future.
Btw, remember Marc Eddy Norelia? He's made himself into a player, averaging 17p/9r for FGCU and is playing in the NCAA tourney.

Let's not kid ourselves. Osetkowski would have been all conference as a junior. It's an unfortunate loss.JerseyWave wrote:Jumping ship before knowing who the new Head Coach will be.....good riddance! Osetkowski improved his game but I expect the new Coach to recruit better talent and win with it.

I do wish he would have taken a "cooling off" period and waited to see who the new coach was. Given the circumstances, one does wonder about tampering.

Told you all a few days ago in another thread that O was leaving. This is just the first of many. We could lose a couple of freshman and the 3 commits. I figure 5 to 6 kids. Counting Jerreau and Dabney could be 8.

Opposite this time around. Those kids really liked this staff. They are leaving because of those changes.Wavetime wrote:This gets so old, not going to miss this about Conroy.
Good luck Big O.

Nope. He's pissed. Nothing more.DrBox wrote:It does stink of tampering (Tarrant was obvious tampering), but strong coaches and programs have ways to stop that...usually by winning.

Yes. He's leaving because he pissed. He was on the bench in the middle of the game when he heard EC was fired.jonathanjoseph wrote:Very unfortunate to lose this kid, but good luck to him in the future.

So Tulane should keep a Coach who has has six years of failure! Last place in the conference! Get lost Osetkowski! He should be pissed about being worst in conference, not about Conroy being fired! Dannen is hiring a Winner!tpstulane wrote:Yes. He's leaving because he pissed.

I'm getting sick of hearing about the excuse being the leak or that there were a couple fans mentioning it behind the bench. If you are that sensitive, move on. You don't have what it takes to be a winner.
I think being a player you hate to lose the coach that recruited you. He probably has some loyalty there. Let's hope we don't lose too many. Sadly this is the nature of college basketball today.JerseyWave wrote:So Tulane should keep a Coach who has has six years of failure! Last place in the conference! Get lost Osetkowski!

It's sort of then important that TD gets his guy relatively soon (like, by next week) if there is any chance to keep a reasonable core for the next coaching staff to work with?
Is Jarreau out of eligibility or is he transferring?

Sadly, this is the nature of this generation of kids. Doesn't matter in the least that they were 12-22, they just want their coach. And if they don't get what they want, they pout and go home. Those aren't the kinds of players you win with anyway. If they can't handle something as simple as losing a coach, they're going to have a really difficult time dealing with the real world.tpstulane wrote:I think being a player you hate to lose the coach that recruited you.

Hope we don't lose too many? Why? We suck I'm fine with a mostly new roster from a coach that actually knows what he's doingtpstulane wrote:I think being a player you hate to lose the coach that recruited you.

In the past this would have been upsetting. Now that we have an AD that knows what he is doing I'm confident this will turn out fine.

Right. Anyone who made their stay/go decision based on that is naive and not so bright. It's hard for any basketball player to play like that and not feel like a coaching change is/was necessary, and given Dannen's comments a few weeks back anyone taken by surprise had their head in the sand.greenphantom wrote:I'm getting sick of hearing about the excuse being the leak or that there were a couple fans mentioning it behind the bench.
