Definitely. Reading quotes from analysts and coaches around the country, Dave Hart made a big time hire. As a fan base we don't need 30+ wins a season and consistent trips to the final 4 to consider what he's doing successful. If we could get consistent 23-24+ win seasons with yearly trips to the big dance, that would do big things for UT basketball. I just want to be consistent in conference play and make a few runs in the tournament again.

Man, it's nice to go the established route for what feels like the first time in forever.

This is equivalent someone hiring Fulmer in 2008. Except Fulmer had actually won something at some point in his career. At least it stays consistent with our hiring motto of, "If we can beat you then we'll hire you."

I'd say it's an acceptable hire considering the shite show that is our administration, but it's hardly exciting.

My question is this: if we hired Coach K would we still always get knocked out before the third round of the conference tournament every year? I'm thinking yes
