I find it hard that they will open up the wallet, I see an underwhelming hire on the horizon.

Would you consider Tyndall/White underwhelming?

Sounds like Martin all over again to me. Would you be good with it?

I think they are both better coaches than Martin. I would prefer Howland though if we can't get Marshall.

VolQuest says Cronin and Miles are in play. Added them along with 247's Pitino report to the OP.

I was probably the biggest Cuonzo hater on the board.

Anyone in the OP would be an upgrade imo.

I think it will be kind of difficult to screw this up, but I did hear Brad Brownell's name mentioned this afternoon.

We're not using a coaching firm so Hart has certain people in mind that he's gonna go after. How quick? Well I would hope fairly quickly given earlier in the season there was a real chance Martin was going to get fired.

Within a week. Easter may slow it down a little bit though.

You'll be ignored by the top 5 they call.

Other than Howland I believe this will be a young hire.

Hey thanks for the tip. We'll be sure to order it so that the guys we don't want are the first five calls.

Couldn't hurt to give Tom Crean a call. I hear Indiana fans dislike him as much as you guys disliked Cunzo. Seems like it would a match made in heaven

I don't know why UT fans do this to themselves. Greg Marshall isn't coming to Tennessee. He's not going anywhere this year.
