He must be a hell of an interview along with an outstanding resume. He's in the business of athletics yet appears to disregard his own physical fitness.

I've hired folks in the past and if they struck me as their health having no priority in their life it would be a strike against them when comparing with the other candidates. I wasn't looking for body builders or marathon runners, just someone who demonstrated the dicipline to maintain healthy life habits like a reasonable weight along with not smoking or heavy drinking.

Maybe I'm in the minority with this mindset, but if an employee is sick or injured regularly it prevents them from performing. Its amazing as one ages how much a healthy diet can affect one's energy level and alertness in my experience.

He played ball at Moorehead ST IIRC.

I'm a fan. I like the hire! With a $1.9 million reserve, Dave Hart was extremely limited in what he could do. With that understanding, Rick Byrd was an outstanding option. I especially like the fact that Jones and Tyndall grew up only 40 miles apart. That should help make for an outstanding relationship between them. I like the fact that he is not afraid to run a zone defense if needed. ;) Tennessee football and basketball could well be on the way back to the top of the SEC!

He likes to keep one guy underneath the other teams basket at all times, so he sacrifices defense for fast breaks. He also wears a speedo against big rivals and likes to trampoline dunk at halftime. That's all I've gathered so far.

His teams are boring. Averaged more than 70 points only 3 times in his career. If people hated Zo's O they will puke when they see Tyndall's.

he had 1 game last year where he didn't score 60 and it was a blowout vs Louisville. Martin had 7 with 2 wooden poy finalists.

As soon as you quit crying and look at some things from an objective eye, your mourning will end.

I know you aren't talking about objective? You have been making excuses for Miller and Tyndall and others but wouldn't apply the same to Martin. You don't know what objective is.

So you think Tyndall should make the NCAA's next year or it will be a failure right?

we have a better chance at making the tourney next year with Tyndall than we did with Martin coming back. First year coach with none of his own players has a better chance than a 4th yr coach would have with his own players. Deal with reality, and it will set you free.

Martin fessed up the other day to costing his team wins by not adjusting and letting his players play. Been saying that for 3 years while guys like you call me a dumbass in return. Martin is gone. Go with him or get on the train and stop freaking crying.

Typical you. Deflect to a different point. One that is all opinion.

What proof do you have Tyndall has a better chance at making the tourney? If Martin stays we have everyone back and add a 7 footer who blocks shots. Who knows who leaves now? There is no possible way for you to make that statement. Its based on dislike of Martin.

Tyndall's teams average 68.5 for his career. I'm sure most fans wanted someone whose teams score closer to 80 a game. 63% career winning percentage. Not bringing any good recruits. So where is this proof he has a better chance?

So is it a failure if he doesn't make the tourney?

Deflect to what point? What is your question.

And I didn't dislike Martin until I saw numerous coaching errors that he failed to fix. The ones he just admitted to. What do you have to say about him admitting he left W's on the table because he wouldn't change defenses or let his offensive players play? Do you have any comment?

And my opinion of next year is exactly what it is. You have yours. I have mine. And I'm glad to be on the opposite end.

I didn't see those quotes but coaches grow.

My point was that you have made excuses for other coaches we were looking at or hired but you never applied the same to Martin.

You admitted that some games its just missing shots , a team getting hot, home refs, missing free throws or lucky shots that get you beat. There is nothing the coach could have done because that just basketball. Even though almost every loss we had to worse teams this year fell into those categories you would not admit it was possible to lose games on those terms. You claimed it was all coaching.

Now you don't want to say we should make the tourney no matter what. Yet you claim Martin was a complete failure his first year due to not making it. You claim predictions don't matter so next year there should be no excuse to not make it.

Another standard for Martin you aren't applying now is scoring. You always complained about Martin's O and how boring it was. You are ok with Tyndall's though whose teams score even less.

-what excuses?
-and the bolded paragraph, what the **** are you talking about. Never said anything about refs. Geez man, are you running out of material. If you want to make up info for your stance, troll somebody else. The problem is you don't hold Martin to the fire for anything and apparently blame each loss on lucky shots or misses. Your coach admitted to leaving W's on the table because he didn't adjust. How can you debate it?
-I didn't claim he was a failure and didn't say Martin should've made the tourney no matter what. Not once. I claimed he didn't overachieve as you and others say he did. I also claimed he left wins out there that could've taken us to the tourney. Stop with the misinformation, again.
-I'm not judging Tyndall's offense until I see how he uses our players. You simply mentioned his offense makes Martin's look good, and I gave you a stat saying he scored less than 60 once, while Martin's team did it 7 times with All SEC players and poy candidates.

I'm not going to continue to give you and a couple others the time of day when you just make **** up out of frustration, ignorance or whatever. I don't know why some posters can't stick with what is actually posted and discussed. You and the Martin fan are two of the worst on here about it. Grow up a little then come back down the road.
That's all.

Uh-oh, look out everybody, here come Spartacus Vol! Sends shivers down my spine. Of course the script is flipped and the criteria has changed so now he's an 'on board' Vol fan.

Martin evolving as a coach and even admitting his temporary shortcomings has nothing at all to do with your arrogance as a poster or a 'vol fan'. You are one of the people who helped sabotage this program.

He has compared his offense to Kansas and his defense to Louisville. He'll be an excited coach to watch. His teams play really solid on defense and will press a lot and our offense will shoot a lot of threes. He's similar to Pearl in that he's a salesman and will do a good job selling the program.

And that's what a lot of you folks like. Fast talkin used car salesmen preferably from the northeast. Somehow that equates to winning. Well, the best college coach maybe of all time was a soft-spoken Midwesterner(Indiana, I consider it east but whatever). You may know him. John Wooden. He did things the right way. The best pro coach maybe of alltime, Phil Jackson. Born in Montana. The Zen master. Very soft-spoken, very successful. It's not HOW you say something, it's what you have to say that counts.

Dying at you saying Wooden did things the "right" way.

UCLA was committing recruiting violations that would make Kentucky think twice during Wooden's run.

Bill Walton said he legitimately took a pay cut his rookie year vs what he was making at UCLA.

Within a very short time of Wooden retiring the NCAA burned them to the ground. It took them 15 years to recover fully and even then it was through more cheating.

He plays the hi lo offense a lot of screening. On defense a lot of pressing like Donavon and Florida. When we play them the ball isn't coming in the front court easy. In half court plays a match up zone.
