What about Rick Insell taking over

[munchster]

Always thought Rick is great coach. Great with the girls.

As a former Golden Eagle, I'd support this. I was a freshman when he was hired, and he was the closest thing you'd see to Hoosiers movie...he ran a tough ship and was intense as hell...an paid off with 10 state championships. Not a bad idea. He and Summitt had similar core beliefs...

 

[Voltopia]

No thanks.

 

[Kinger]

From what I heard about his high school coaching days, he would be a good recruiter.

 

[bigfredtn]

who?

 

[casetopia]

yes let's hire a 67 year old coach who is 1-9 in the NCAA tournament.

LOL!

 

[WeAreTheRealUT.]

How about NO!

 

[Jax_Vol]

Heck of a coach, but unfortunately Father Time would be working against us.

Nick Saban is the oldest head football coach among the Power-5 conferences. But, even he is a bit younger than Coach Insell.

 

[Coach Jumper]

How about Coach jumper...He can be there tomorrow

 

[T-TownVol]

Ok......"heck no"?????

NO

 

[Tennesseefan2019]

NO

If you want to hire someone who is great with the girls hire Tyler Summitt

Never really understood the obsession folks had for Tyler Summitt, even before his incident. Coaching isn't hereditary. It doesn't pass from person to person like a genetic marker. Coaching ability comes from their knowledge, their experiences, their hardships, and their triumphs -- all that business. Maybe he would have been good one day, or maybe not, but I was never interested in seeing him take over. I wanted UT to treat the position like UNC, Duke, and Kentucky treat the position for their men's programs. Hire the best available. If they win, good. If they can't, then keep hiring. But don't settle -- never settle. Those programs don't. UT shouldn't, either.

 

[iluvsmesumdooley]

No thanks.

Then who do we hire? Hearing Wes Moore as well.

That was the long term plan for absolutely no justification other than the fact he is Coach Summit's son. I'm aware the poster had tongue firmly in cheek lol.

 

[alaVOL]

All these people who worry UT can't hire a better coach than Holly, REALLY?

Of course this may be all premature. There is a small chance they win 3 in a row and they sneak in the NCAA tourney. If that happens she will probably stay. If they do not make the tourney and she stays, that would not be good. There is time to turn this around, but the change needs to be made after the final game.

I would rather for the future health of the program have them lose out and fire Holly Warlick

 

[Pacer92]

Little old...

 

[Tennesseefan2019]

Little old...

Yeah Rick Insell is up there as far as age is concerned
