There is a considerable amount of the fanbase that is opposed to hiring a male coach. That portion of the fan base which is vocal and influential will never ever accept a male coach. They would much rather continue on with Holly and whatever that brings than to get someone like the coach at Louisville.
I think if this was a hire right after Pat retired I could see that as a factor. Honestly I think we have fallen so far that a majority of the fans just want the best coach available. I believe a man, such as Walz, who comes in and speaks of admiring and respecting Pat Summitt and upholding the great tradition of the Lady Vols she created will be just fine.
