Morgan makes sense form the clues but doesn't considering he just took FSU jobn

I think it’s him. These kinds of things have happened before where a coach takes a job and immediately goes somewhere else when he likes another offer better.

Like William Inge?

I’ve been given the go ahead to confirm. Some have already guessed it…but Amorrow Morgan is the guy. Recently took the FSU assistant job, but will get to come back home to TN (from Memphis) and join the Vols staff. Morgan is a top notch recruiter and at 37, possesses the young and relatable quality that Barnes was looking for. Rod Clark will be missed, but Morgan also has AAU connections, was a former college player, and is more hands on in practices.

Too bad this guy committed to Georgia already, Morrow recruited him from Georgia to Cal, arguably the best returning freshman in college basketball and is a bucket at the 2 guard spot

Committed, but has he signed or enrolled?

Committed? Pfft. Even ink to paper is iffy these days. If there's a place/fit with this kid, I say make a call...or have someone who knows someone who knows the someones around the kid make a call. We are saving a spot in case someone presented. Gainey isn't likely and this might be a bird in hand?

Honestly not sure how it works, portal has passed so he can’t enter, if he’s signed maybe he can get a release, if he hasn’t signed then I would assume fair game…not sure. But I’m with you, him added to that roster might have us preseason #1, definitely top 3/4 imo.

One site described him as "relentless" on the recruiting trail. I'm more than down with that.

Bit surprised it’s not Rodney Terry, but I guess it makes sense to go young to replace young

 

[Weezer]

Can you hire "analysts" in basketball like you can in football?

Rodney Terry would be someone probably to replace Gainey as second in command if he left

 

[ToddKirk87]

Morgan just announced officially.

He is still very hire-able as a head coach. Or lead assistant for a major conference team at absolute worst.

I bet he does a year of TV and then back to coaching.

 

[Ghost of Archvol]

if i'm reading the tea leaves correctly, doesn't the hiring of amarrow "back door" us into contention with the wilkinson kid from cal>>uga??!!

toddkirk87/BTO, you hearing anything like that??

 

[nateernst]

If Wilkinson hasn’t signed yet I would imagine he’s fair game

 

[bleedingTNorange]

Trying to find this out, I’ve seen nothing official from Georgia talking about him like what we’ve seen from Tennessee coaches talking about Gillespie, Carey and Abram.

Our AD might not like us raiding his brother’s recruits?

Well that would be ridiculous.

That’s cute, maybe they’ll feel bad for our football program and give us some recruits too

He likes winning though
