Oats was living off of what Hurley built


This was his fourth year there. Did they have a ton of fifth year seniors or something?

He also just stomped Hurley last Thursday/Friday

Nah but being forreal, I'm not at all mad or upset about the hire. It would have been nice to get a big time name like Matta, but Nate Oats from all appearances is a solid coach.

At this point I'm putting a lot of faith in Greg Byrne's solid track record of identifying and selecting coaches.

If it wasn't for Buffalo's 2nd round loss I would have had all 16 teams left in my bracket.

It's like raaaaaiiiiiiiaaaaaaannnn!

I’ll give Ninja Byrne the benefit of the doubt but I worry about Oats never having coached in the south.

Every person that I've ever known named Nate, I've called him Newt. So I have that going for me. He'll be coach Newt the entire time he's here and I can't do a damn thing about it

If Petty and Kira come back, that’s already a huge fricking win for him

Ehhh, well that's a letdown after the Matta rumors. Don't really think this moves the needle much for the program's status.

Being disappointed in the hire because of some weird twitter rumor is sort of pointless.

Being disappointed because you don't want a mid-major guy or you'd prefer Forbes (although let's face it, none of us really watch a lot of ETSU or Buffalo) is more reasonable.

I'm cautiously optimistic. It seems like on the surface a pretty good hire.

I kept my expectations in check so I like the hire. Hope he does good things here.
