Jeff Long has a history of screwing up the coaching process. It gets out to the media who he is after, offers a job, and has it blow up in his face. He totally botched the Pitt basketball search. He thought he had S.Prosser and paraded him all over with out getting the final committmen. Prosser then went back to Wake Forrest and was given a large raise. Than it was Calaparri and others. He finally had to offer the job to Jamie Dixon because he knew he would take it. It has worked out fine because Dixon is an excellent recruiter and coach but Long still botched the situation.
