I guess I gotta be rooting for NVE now and that he has picked up on the analytics of the NBA.


Hopefully Martin wants to press and trap all game cause at least that is fun to watch.


I don't know what else to say.

Also I'll just go with the pipe dreams others are having and hope he can bring back Saunders (and man I'm hesitant to say Tari cause of momster, but we can't say no to talent right now)



Did Martin have some recruiting chops? I'm really not sure what he did for WVU. Anybody got a break down of what to expect?

I just hope the recruiting is good.


But some people think that Erik Martin is our Penny or our Juwan Howard.. And this is ain't that, at least in terms of recruiting. A large portion of young Bearcat fans have no idea who Erik Martin is.. and nationally he is literally a nobody.



But my biggest concern will be arrogance. Hopefully they don't just try to add an entire Huggins player staff, as most were never know for high basketball IQ.. Ill take Demarr and NVE then add a former coach to the staff.

Don’t be that guy. Give the guy a chance before we want the guy fired.

Skinny said on the skinny pod, that Huggins went to Martin when he wanted “dudes”. Whatever that means.

Still praying for Erik Martin. LOL and Nick V.

The optics from a player standpoint might be higher than any other coach not named Huggins at UC.

Young players don't trust conversation as much these days, but a winning program Asst. Coach and an NBA Development Guy sure are in position to relate to these young guys and their careers after college are believable so they could come out the gate with player trust.

It may or may not translate to success, but without trying we will never know.

I can judge the process we took to get to where we are. I also spoke out about the process to hire Brannen before he was hired and then warmed up to the idea after more analysis.


Unfortunately we don't have anything to analyze with Martin. He is a complete unknown as the head coach of a program.

It's always possible he's had great ideas he's been developing for years and has been waiting for his time to try them out. The unknown can work out in the end.
