Did we Fire Rod Clark last Friday?

[Volprofch05]

Be kinda funny if he was secretly recruiting against us or something before leaving lol

I mean, Indiana’s portal class isn’t bad at all.

Thanks for posting. That's the best way to determine the trustworthiness of a source.

In case anyone's forgotten, he was 64!

Clark going to IU.
All my local IU buddies saying "This new guy is hiring everyone else's rejects.".
I responded to them that Clark recruited Knecht, Lanier, and Ament.

They quickly backed up.

My hope is Barnes plugs someone in that can recruit as well.

We don't get Kennedy Chandler without Rod Clark as well. His coach from aau

Hey sir, I find loopholes.

Find a sketchy article saying this and a buddy with reliable connections at IU, said this was true? Anyone know anything?

It appears to be true.

Rod Clark is leaving Tennessee basketball after four seasons as an assistant coach on Rick Barnes' staff, his agent Dan Cutler of Excel Sports Management confirmed to Knox News.

Clark was hired to join Darian DeVries' staff at Indiana.

New Sentinal reporting it as well.

I mean, CRB didn't seem that torn up about it at the BOC in Nashville so maybe there's no love lost there. Even though Rod could recruit, I personally always thought he was the weak link in the chain when it comes to assistants.... plus his obsession with responding to Twitter trolls was borderline unprofessional

 

[Flogballs]

So, did he get a big pay raise?

 

[All Vol!]

Is this serious enough to lead to any decommits?

 

[LegionnaireOfTheMiserable]

Who wrote that crap? End of an era? Full of unnamed sources close to the program, assumptions and innuendos.
Potentially damaging nonetheless - with no legal recourse to sue the author for liable, damages or punitive action.

There’s no way that article is “damaging.” It isn’t a credible source and barely anyone will ever see it.

Rodney Terry, come on down

What a s***ty title for the Coach Clark Appreciation thread.

I was unaware that Calipari had pissed Putin off.

Coach Rod Clark has been on my basketball ig following since I've been on there 2 years.
He's a good coach and a good man and everything he brought to the team the players, recruiting - he will be missed. I know CRB says they have it covered, but that doesn't change what Rod meant to the players & this organization.
I wished him & his family well & he responded. Thought i would share.

And Coach Rod came in with Zeigler & Mashack & those three were here for only 4 years, but the best 4 year stretch in Vol Hoops history. Vol Royalty. Can't wait to see him as a head coach somewhere down the road.

Everyone is signed

 

[NighthawkVol]

I’d be ecstatic with a Rodney Terry hire here, but I would also like to see an offensive minded assistant added.

Either way, I’m sure Barnes will make a good hire.

Well, I thought the portal era would run Barnes into retirement, but h shocked me. Lightning/twice thing?

But they can still leave.

Holy roster flip Batman!

Leave me out of this

A recruiter and one who can help with offense.

Barnes wished him well and he said he will be replacing him with someone from outside the program.
