Good for you. The guy was an assistant at UT. It's relevant even if it is for the Around the NCAA forum.

Allow me to jump in here. Maybe you don't care now, and that's fine I would not expect you to. But but you might want to pay attention, because in the 2016-17 season UT is scheduled to come to JC. That is, unless UT buys out the game. Forbes is going to be announced tomorrow as our new head coach. On March 13 our AD fired Murry Bartow. 17 days later he will be introducing a coach with a combined record as a head coach/assistant coach of 121-11.

Hart better get his next hire right, or the Wade Houston era will seem like glory days, and some UT fans won't give a rat's a also.

Well, if you had the ability to think outside your own self-interests, you would realize that many of us grew up UT fans but have ties to ETSU. I graduated from ETSU, and I find this hire to be very UT relevant. Not only did Forbes coach here, but we also play ETSU regularly. I also believe this hire could put ETSU back in the NCAA tournament regularly, something many of us would be very happy to see :good!:.

Then don't read threads that have to do with ETSU. Problem solved.
