I hope Alabama hires Pitino

There are connections, and mutual interest between both parties.

Oh and he coached Kevin Durant to a ROUND OF 32 LOSS MY GOD but he does recruit well.

The Wall/Cousins/Bledsoe UK team lost to West Virginia. The Vols made it to the Sweet 16 with Martin. Anything can happen in the tournament.

 

[tnktm]

At least we have better choices this time. Surely we'll end up with a decent coach.

 

[volgrad500]

If you think UT basketball is in any way like Vandy football, then you are out of your damn mind.

Your reading comprehension is @#$# pathetic.

How about this Izzo guy? Haven't heard him mentioned but I think he could do well here. High ceiling imo

Seriously?

Then why do you care who Tn hires? I will continue to hope Tn will get it right and not be like you to be content with that standard you have. jmo, not trying to be mean btw.

You wouldn't be content with 20+ wins every season!? My God....the problem with most of the people on this board is that for some reason they think that Tennessee is an elite basketball program because of 1 Elite Eight appearance!! We are not an elite basketball program....never have been.....does that mean that we will never be? No, absolutely not. Right now what this program needs is stability.They don't need a young, up and coming coach. This program needs an established coach with a long track record.

 

[volfanCLT]

Seriously?

Very. I think he could be elite at the right program. UT should consider him

 

[musolfmj]

Really, really seriously? Truly?

Estero. So jealous. You must have done something right in life haha. I'd do anything to retire in that area.

 

[armchair]

You're*

when Pearl was here. 3rd in the SEC is for the taking--and we've had some wins against florida, too.

You said "does that mean Tn will never be elite...no" well we know Barnes can not get a team to elite level. Is he the worst hire Tn could make... no. We just disagree on if Tn needs just a stable coach or go with someone with higher ceiling. :hi:

take Hurley off the list now Danny Hurley, Rhode Island Rams agree to 6-year deal - ESPN I would still go after Bobby though

I won't complain, it was 74 and sunny today

Although, we are all ready for the snowbirds to head back north.

SIAP! I don't have time to read 67 pages of posts.

Is Tyndall going to go away quietly? I thought it was significant that his final goodbye letter was written on his attorney's stationery.

What happens if Tyndall ends up dodging the NCAA bullet and doesn't receive a Level I or Level II sanction? Wouldn't the answer be that we have to pay him his buyout? Sounds like this won't happen, but I would hate to get dragged through the mud in the press again after we have already moved on.

 

[papatomany]

Average huh....hell I would love to average 20+ wins a season at Tennessee.

Well. Cuonzo averaged 21. Most folks on here (I have no idea about the majority of actual Tennessee basketball fans) weren't happy with that.

 

[Dallasbowlin]

Very. I think he could be elite at the right program. UT should consider him

He's at Michigan st, in the final four.

 

[Dallasbowlin]

I wish we would've just kept him. We're gonna be down a few years anyway,can't hurt anymore that it already has.

This was said after Pearl too. Only difference is Pearl is a good coach/recruiter.

We are not going to be down a few years. BB can turn around quick with the right staff. We need recruits. I know you loved CDT and he got a lot out of this team, but we can hire better. CDT brought this on himself.

Where's the plane?

Bama hires Greg Marshall for 6 years 25 million!

You lie.

Tyndall was a good coach and is still.

Fake account. Not real
