Well that's an inauspicious name if I ever saw one.

Coach ScoMo

SCOMO FOR THE WIN AHHAHAH

First press conference question, "Did you shit your pants at the Engadine Maccas in 1997?

Opens up some good connections with the Wildcats & Celtics.

Maybe some draft & stash options.

Hopefully he's more competent than his namesake.

I bet my Miami mansion and model wife that Albo won't even put out a media release about this.

I remember Voigt. He was once a consultant for a PBA team (Phoenix FuelMasters). He has quite the experience on National Teams from Nigeria to Angola. I am not familiar with the type of offense and defense that he runs. I haven't seen his games in a while, but he can definitely coach.

Okay, how do we lobby the league for this guy to get the Didi Louzada exemption to be a Next Star ;)

Tacko Fall, Tacko Fall, Tacko Fall.

I trust Mills has names up his sleeve. Has hinted in the Morrison press conference that an announcement could be made by the end of the week.

Just when you thought the Perth Coach couldn't be more disliked.

Vic Law would be a great get next to Cotton!

First Scott Morrison to coach in the NBL but there was also a player of the same name who played for Melbourne Tigers around 2014.

Haha Perth signed Scomo.

Just when you thought the Perth Coach couldn't be more disliked.

Vic Law possibly signing with Perth. *sigh* Of course Brisbane are being too cheap to get his signature again. I'll just sit here and wait for them to bring back Sheldon Quarles or Thaddeous Delaney instead.

Shervill is a DP. There are still 2 bench spots available.
Wildcats have more success with imports than most so I too expect the streak to continue.

It does depend on how you measure an import as a success.

In the 8 year Gleeson reign:

Tier of his own: Cotton
Tier 1 (would have kept if they could): Mooney, Prather, Ennis, Beal, White
Tier 2 (played a role): Daniels, Tokoto, McKay, Hunt, Plumlee,
Tier 3 (miss): Johnson, Ingram, Cooke

14 imports

6 out and out hits

3 outright misses and 3 questionable (Daniels, Tokoto, Hunt)

Mckay and Plumlee did what was asked of them as 3rd imports but wouldn't have made the grade as 1st or 2nd imports


Compare to Cairns over the same time period (I am reaching because my familiarity isn't as high):

Tier 1 (would have kept if they could): Wilbekin, Trice, Trimble, Newbill, Machado, Oliver
Tier 2 (played a role): Wilson, Craig, Carrera
Tier 3 (miss): Edwin, Mitchell, Egwu
Can't remember well enough to include in Tier 2 or 3: McCamey, Starks, Smith, Hall

16 imports used

6 out and out hits

I suspect 5 outright misses; with another 2 questionable?

3 who would get just a pass mark

The difference is really that when a Wildcats import fails they can be replaced with a better import and their role playing imports contributed to team success or at least didn't disrupt the streak.

Will need another Mooney level for sure. The other can be a level 2.
A next star wouldn't hurt either.

Be interesting to see who they sign, and if the focus changes under ScoMo.

Could we get Baynes and/or Exum??
