Assistant Coaches

[bleedingTNorange]

Thanks. I knew of the Haith connection. Just wasn't relating the connection back to Barnes thru Haith at Texas. Any idea how he is as a recruiter?

No I don’t

Didn’t Hayes have a brother & he played NBA with Washington Wizards?

Yes elvin hayes

Jarvis Hayes?

 

[spyfish007]

I remember him as a player.

But those stories are boring....

Does anyone know if Kim English is already in Knoxville? He was a nice player at Mizzou probably their last decent team and I remember when they got upset as a 2 in NCAA. That was when Frank Haith was there. He had a shady deal while at Miami and only lasted 2 years at Mizzou.

Tony Stubbelfield from Oregon. Great recruiter. How hard would Barbee be to lure from Cal? I know he played for him but would be nice as a recruiter.

Why does Alford's name get tossed around?

 

[CAVPUT]

Yes elvin hayes

The Big E. Not the Wizards. Baltimore/Washington Bullets back in my day.

I was hoping we’d make a run at Pettway

Lotta time on his hands and he’s not first choice on any HC openings it seems.

 

[Dallasbowlin]

Anyone? It mentions Kim English.

I’m a happily married man. I hardly think those stories are appropriate.

Kim English finalizing deal to join Vols staff

I like the English hire, stud SEC player got some time in the NBA even...I think his age and ability to relate closely to players having been one himself recently will make him a good/solid recruiter

Agree.

Technically not an SEC player.

 

[Tennesseefan2019]

The hiring of Coach English was a really strong hire

 

[MoCo_Vol]

True, Big 12 stud then

 

[MoCo_Vol]

True, Big 12 stud then

So Barnes actually coached against him as a player. And the Big 12 during that time was stronger... Texas, Kansas, Kansas State, Baylor, and even A&M were all quality b-ball teams while he was at Missouri he even faced the really good Oklahoma team that had Blake on it his freshman year.

 

[Dallasbowlin]

This is a solid hire. Not a sexy hire, but a solid one. Wish we could get AK on the staff somehow.

 

[zjcvols]

Hey maybe if English does a great job he could take over in a few years whenever Barnes retires.

 

[Roustabout]

I hear Holly is looking for a job......

I’d be absolutely shocked if she coaches again at any level. She had to get a pretty seeet buyout. I’d say early retirement.

I hope Schwartz gets the Associate HC job. He could be a candidate to take over for Barnes one day.

He will if Oliver Leaves
