Marshall To Bama?

[VolnJC]

They seem pretty confident on their 247 site that this deal will be announced tomorrow

Unreal if they pull this off. And a shame that we didn't even try.

 

[DocVol]

Ridiculous.

Hart is in so over his head it's not even funny.

 

[golfballs]

If this happens I will really be pissed

 

[SDV]

You can blame this one on Hammy

 

[golfballs]

Surely he's just trying to ramp up bidding.

Exactly. The Marshall bridge was burned long before Hart got here.

Surely he's just trying to ramp up bidding.

Bama could set the SEC BB on its ear with this one. He would have to contend with UK/UF's established success, a surging Arkansas, and Bruce rebuilding the Barn. Are we looking at an SEC BB renaissance?

No way Marshall chooses Alabama over Texas.. No way in hell.

What if texas get Shaka

Longhorns 247 site and reporters were saying Marshall was their top candidate. If that's true, I don't see any way Marshall chooses Bama over Texas.

His proximity/ recruiting base fits Texas much better than Bama, not to mention Austin is a great city to live in.

It was a little more than a year ago that many posters were saying the same thing about Nick Saban.

Saban was already at Bama. Going from Wichita State... choosing between Texas and Alabama is a no brainer.

 

[Keyser Soze]

If this is true, the SEC is about to get very competitive in BBall. Even more important that we make a good hire or we will get left in the dust!!!

He may very well wind up at Texas. It's a better job, and they are flush with cash. But Bama is the second-richest AD in the country, so there is no program better suited to give Texas some competition.

Bama fans acting like they care about Basketball all of a sudden.

There are conflicting reports out there

I honestly don't care that much about Bama basketball. If they do well, then great. If not, I won't have watched it anyway.

Now, if UT finally decides it's time to hire Rick Byrd, then you'll see me melt.

no kidding

What if texas get Shaka

Shaka missed his opportunity to coach at a D1 Major. He was hot for a few years, but seems to have cooled a bit lately. Texas will get the one they want.

 

[Godfatha]

Living in Bama, I can tell you no one that I've come in contact with gives a damn about basketball. Baseball is a bigger sport.

 

[gordonr24]

Better hope Texas doesn't hire Shaka or Marshall to Bama may become a reality.

 

[govols120]

Texas supposedly going after Shaka, but apparently Mark Jackson too?

Are you sure they have room in Texas for both Smart and Shaka? Some of their fans heads would explode.

I'm dumbfounded oh why Greg Marshall would choose to go to Alabama, he's one of the hottest commodities in college basketball and could potentially coach a blue blood one day, and he would decide to go to Alabama? Wichita state right now is a much better job than Alabama.
