Hearing that Thad Matta is in town and is a clear favorite ATM


When I saw ATM, I thought he meant Texas AM for a second.

I'd be very satisfied with that hire. He's already done it at 1 football school.

Does UA have an ATM from Regions Bank?

I think we should take a look at the head coach of the Dayton Flyers. He's had them in the post-season each of the past two seasons.

Plus, we can probably get him for cheap.

Thad turned down the Georgia job last year. Maybe he’s had a change of heart.

He's made it pretty clear he isn't getting back in unless he feels very good about his health and is ready to go. That's basically why he decided no last year with the Georgia job.

If they've gotten to a good place with the health thing going forward he's only 51. He's not an old guy at all.

If we dont hire Pitino can I have the "We could have took the easy way like LSU but we have morals" troll thread on the rant?

Don't blame him. Who wants to coach in Athens?

I worry that Matta is just doing Byrne the courtesy of an interview. He’ll take one look at Coleman and go thanks but no thanks. However we do have a helluva lot better basketball history than the Athens Bulldogs.

Someone keep us folks at work up on the presser. I expect someone to deliver the Cliffs Notes version as soon as it’s over.
Please?!?

He was going to take the Georgia job last year until he decided at the last minute he wasn't ready health and family wise.

He's been 2nd fiddle to football before. I think we could certainly hire him. I don't think he'll accept it without a clear plan, but I definitely think he's interested.

Might as well kill the program if it's either Mike Davis or Andy Kennedy.
