That's because his heart is here but he is coaching at Cow College. He would still crawl back on his hands and knees to be coaching here and once again TBA would be rocking.
Oh so he is not giving max effort with someone paying him millions? Definitely a guy I want then.
Either way Pearl is never coaching here again and wasn't hired so it doesn't matter.
I am sorry and I have been high on Tyndall all year for what he has done with an abysmal roster, but he just let a 13 point lead turn into a 7 pt deficit from the 13 minute mark to the 6 minute mark and did not take one single timeout. Regardless of how many TV timeouts and stoppages in play that is just ridiculous to let a game get away in a matter of minutes and not do anything about it. Four TO's sitting there. Games like this are what turns fans against you because regardless if you are a great X and O coach, game management is equal to that at the college level. Before the year an NIT spot would have been great but my the middle of the year we played our way to where that should have been a certainty. Just a long, bad year, that many though it would be, but losses like this are inexcusable.
Martin almost didn't make the tournament with the most talented team in the last 5 years.
You're comparing a coach that made one of the few Sweet 16s in school history to the worst football coach we've ever had?
I don't care what you feel about Martin, he deserves more respect than to be compared to freakin' Dooley.
Why because all of the players decided they didn't want their last year to end?
Should have hired Bruce Pearl when we had the chance. Our basketball program is back to Buzz levels
Please don't compare Buzz and Donnie as basketball coaches. Buzz had Slay, Haislip, Yarbrough, McFadgon, Watson, etc. if Donnie had those guys, we would be rolling. From a technical standpoint, Donnie can coach circles around Martin, Buzz, and probably Jerry Green.
