I know they interviewed Ivey at the Final Four.

There’s a good chance this will get leaked before Friday.

Not sure why there isn't a reality show based on UT coaching searches, plenty of material season after season

In all honesty, I believe the only "material" is the reaction of the fans. Our searches aren't any different from most others. The only difference is the fans' reaction.

I keep coming back to Gail Goestenkors being the best candidate. Steller career at Duke. Not sure how to explain her mediocre results at Texas, but if anyone would know it would be Rick Barnes who was there at the same time. Some say she didn't have experience in recruiting Texas but at Tennessee I think her name would go far in attracting national recruits. Would think we could get her at a reasonable price too.

Would be another Butch hire

If that's in response to the "incarceration" bit, that was supposed to be a lame riff on Va_Vol's "one of your five messages" remark. No offense meant...just struck me as funny. Apologies.

Hahaha don’t try and put me in it ... I was pointing out they were new so I’m thinking either yes they created this with some knowledge or they are pulling are leg either way I want the dirt lol

Since you can't name names, are you personally excited about the hire and do you think the players will be happy with the new coach?

I’m in a wait and see mode concerning the new coach. I’m optimistic, but Fulmer knows he cannot make everyone happy. This could’ve all been avoided had Walz not leaked that there was mutual interest in the job, when there was none on the Tennessee side. That put the fanbase in a frenzy that never should’ve happened.

Concerning the players, I’m currently under the assumption that everyone is coming back, including Evina, and all recruits are staying, including Jordan. The Aussie is still up in the air because she hasn’t visited yet. Once the new coach is in, that visit will be scheduled. Of course, things can change.

Bruhhh why you gotta go and do that 😂😂😂

But seriously thanks for providing us with levity in this situation it was getting tense there for a minute...

Great news to hear about the ladies staying and the recruits and if they are staying that means they probably trust the decision especially ms. Westbrook who was very admimant about change.

I’m guessing it’s Lawson.

Do you think the players would stay for Ivey or KJH? It is weird Kara’s presence just commands attention but she doesn’t have the coaching background.

I honestly don’t know who it is going to be. Or will it be like a combo package Wes Moore with a replacement associate LV set into place to take over upon retirement ?

Have to feel for the fans and players at Rice and Missouri State. On the other side, the ESPN colleagues would likely be glad to get additional opportunities.

And now NC State as Wes Moore was seemingly interviewed. The reality that all three may not come to UT but they could get other opportunities elsewhere. I’m with you I feel for them
