Guess this means they are going to steal Pearl away now?

I was watching the NIT selection show ( go ahead laugh), and when they go tot the turds, they announced the turds would be playing, one guy said they fired their coach, the other guy said, "real classy bama".

I chortled...

Bama jackholes at the golf tournament talking about this. Their "short list"

Pittino, Calipari, Kennedy, Donovan. Would be disappointed if they had to drop back as far as Donovan.

So, I guess Pat Riley, Greg Popovich and Phil Jackson already turned them down?

How ironic it would be if they hired UABs coach.

They need to go get a real up-and-comer. A young, mid major coach who looks like the next big thing.

Right. Recent former castaways all have their teams in the Dance.
Who do they pursue for an impact hire that can rival Bruce Pearl and halfway contend with UK?
They can't get Donovan. Pitino is 62.
Someone like a Shaka Smart- VCU is my best guess.
It's like trying to draft the right QB fit in the NFL.

It's like shopping for canned corn. You want creamed,whole kernel, niblets?
Wait...this one looks like it has bits of green and red bell pepper.

I think they should hire Tony Barbee.

Since all the ones that have been mentioned wouldn't leave where they are, I wonder if they will go after Ben Howland?

Don't forget Norman Dale...and Shooter.

Buzz Killington · « **Reply #12 on:** March 16, 2015, 10:58:57 AM »

I think Tommy Joe Eagles would be a great fit for them.

Jeff Lebo is a North Carolina guy. He's got great blood lines.

Then there is former Dookie, Tommy Amaker/ Harvard. That would translate well to the Crapstain, plus his team is Crimpsom.

Do not bring a Dookie in. We don't want them to be successful.
