So Dan Hurley was my #1 choice. I didn't think it would happen but after signing a 6 year extension I think it's even less likely. After that if like to land White. Holtmann after that. Then I'd hope that it wouldn't go past underwood or barnes

Talk about taking the wrong job: Buzz Williams at Va. Tech. He's a good coach, but at the wrong school in the wrong conference. The hokies lost 17 of their last 19 games this year. Granted it was Williams' first year--but how about coaching at a football school in a conference with UNC, Duke, Louisville, Syracuse (now weakened by sanctions), NC State, Virginia--and FSU and Clemson are usually respectable or better as well. Virginia Murderer's row. Good luck with that. Wish we could hire him away from Va.Tech--though I know the buyout would prevent it. UT and the SEC would be a very nice situation for him. It's too bad he took the Va. Tech job just before the Quanze left us.

Timing was off with CCM staying just a little too long. He would've been our coach otherwise.

White would be an underwhelming hire IMO

Marshall > Shaka

Idk about that. Shaka's teams are just so fun to watch. Shaka is 15 years younger and has only been a head coach since 2009. He has 25+ years ahead of him. His teams could be scary if he gets 4 and 5 stars that are athletic running his chaos defense. I'd take Shaka over Marshall for sure but that's my opinion I respect yours. I'm not trying to take anything away from Marshall because he has built two programs Winthrop and Witchita State. He deserves a chance at a big time program.

He's got like three 4* coming in this year. His success is about to open the doors for some big time recruits to VCU.

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

I disagree. Izzo is only 2-2 in NITs and has never coached outside of Michigan. Plus he's 60 and probably can't fit into skinny jeans. He's a loser. Didn't even make the Final Four the last four years. Tim Izzo is too risky for Hart to hire him.

Either blue font or add sarcasm. If not, Louisville says hello.
