Puzzled why someone would think that would be attractive to him.
The program hit rock-bottom in large measure due to forces beyond Stans' control. Besides, rock bottom would be defined by Rick Ray; we were a long way from rock bottom when Stans was forced out.
Other than little Stan’s playing on the team, the Stansbury’s still have a lot of ties to Starkville and are in town regularly. I’ve been told they really still enjoy being there. I’m not saying Stan’s should or would come back as an assistant but it might not be that big of a stretch.
The notification I saw said "let go". I assumed fired. My bad for assuming.
do you actually think Rick Ray was our first choice or is it more likely that he was the guy that said yes because everyone else turned us down?
Put him on radio with Richard Williams and let him just give the refs hell all night
Possible that they come back to Starkville because they have a son going to schoo there and Meo is a native Starkvillian. He may still own property there.
He's 63 years old and looking at starting over again as a head coach if he chooses to go that route. His wife is a Starkville native, he spent 23 years of his life here, and his son plays on the basketball team. I can easily see how retiring here with an analyst or commentator role might be very attractive to him.
DEAR GOD NO on the commentator part. I love listening to Richard Williams and don't want to hear Stans say "freshmens" and "that ball" 100 times a broadcast. Stans will always be a Dawg to me, so in any other role beside radio or head basketball coach.
Stans was an employee, which is why MSU fired him(Im sorry, I meant 'retired').
Ha, I just assumed it was thumbsdown! I even liked it. Well I will take back my like. No credit for stealing a shtick, even if overplayed.You owe @Thumbs Down a $1
He loves State. He’s always tweeting when we win games.
