Wonder what are folks thoughts on her chances of helping Florida emerge in the SEC?

UT could get her, but will miss out like they did with Will Wade

 

[volnationnj]

I think it would be a great hire and would give them instant credibility with recruits.

Wow I thought AD would pluck his buddy Vic S from Ms State

Me too but he has pieces at Miss State and is bringing in decent pieces he probably doesn't want to rebuild elsewhere or the AD is trying to make an immediate hire

Schaeffer is waiting for his good friend, Gary Blair, to retire from A&M. He named his daughter after Blair. That is the job Schaeffer wants.

Would absolutely be a home-run hire. Yet another SEC program on the way to surpassing Tennessee....

This is one of those great hires no matter the sex. If Hammon was hired to coach a men's team it would be a great hire.

 

[CincyLadyVol]

To bad UT might miss out on a good candidate.

 

[Silence Dogood]

Hammon has NEVER been a head coach, but she is already being called a great coach, a great hire.

Might want to ask around the NBA and see what they think of her...She can flat out coach...don't think coach Pop would bring in someone didn't know what they were doing to his spurs staff

He named his daughter Gary?

Hammon at Florida...would be an absolute homerun...she would be coaching circles around the other coaches in this league outside of White at Vandy(who has to get her players too) once she gets her players but what I saw with her with that Spurs Summer league team was tremendous

She was HC for an NBA summer league team. Led them to a championship, I believe.

Always easy to spot the ones who don't follow the NBA...

 

[LasVegasBill23]

Even though no head coaching experience, asst coach for organization like the Spurs is good enough for me to rubber stamp this

In her short time as a Head coach she already has a championship (she led the Spurs to an NBA Summer League title), I think that silences the Never been a coach talk

I didn't think she'd take that kind of step. I would hire her. I would not hesitate.

She would be a good hire but a summer league championship doesn't count for much

 

[blackv]

Tn. will keep bad Holly until there is no good coach available.

Winning a title as a Woman coaching 12 to 15 men who are all trying to show what they can do to earn a spot on a NBA roster (many of which that is their last opportunity) and getting them all to put their egos and the I got to get mine attitudes to the side to play as a team and win it all, says a lot

 

[Vols4life]

A group of guys that are thrown together for about 3 weeks playing games....I think that says a lot

Anything in the NBA is a step up from coaching women's basketball. No offense, but that is a fact.

So Hammon is taking a step down?

Other teams upgrades but Tn remains well......Tennessee.

Tn loves to shop at the Dollar tree.
