He went to 2 and did it with 2 of the top 10 players in the NBA right now. You aren't getting any Kevin Love's or Russell Westbrook's at Tennessee


Love maybe, but Westbrook wasn't a big time recruit. I certainly think Howland could coax some 3 stars guys to UT

Tennessee could do a lot worse that Ben Howland. At least he's got some "skins on the wall" so to speak (multiple conf. championships and multiple Final Fours). Look at some of the other recent SEC hires of coaches who's success was VERY limited prior to coming to the SEC.

And their success is still very limited outside of Cuonzo's most recent run.

I've had these same arguments with fellow Bama fans on our board about Howland. Do not want at all.
