And be realistic(unlike Mizzou fans who thought they could get Greg Marshall or Shaka Smart). If the coach has turned down a bigger program like UCLA, you aren't getting them

My short list:

Ray Harper, WKU
Brian Wardle, Wisc-Green Bay
Steve Prohm, Murray State
Mike Young, Wofford
Brad Underwood, Stephen F. Austin
Marvin Menzies, New Mexico State

I'd avoid Ron Hunter at Georgia State even if they figure things out and make an NCAA tourney run - he has the 3 best players in the Sun Belt and 2 NBA draft picks and has already lost 3 Sun Belt games.

Agree. Alabama was unrealistic in thinking they could get a guy like Saban to come coach their football team. They need to be a bit more realistic this time.

Bama pays Grant more than AU pays Pearl. Point being that Bama pays their bball coach well and can lure a talented "name" coach under the right circumstances.

Be realistic...Psh. Shoot for the moon quietly and then be realistic if you have to later.

Just a reminder, you need to change schools again. A&M played Auburn last night.

Coach K or Calipari should be first two calls. If that doesn't work out go for Izzo or Pitino.

Not sure you could pry him away but Dave Rose at BYU is big-time good. Would love to see his controlled fast-break style in the SEC. Sure ain't boring.

I once pondered shite like this but it doesn't matter. Alabama will never win a NC in Basketball. Just not gonna happen.

Might as well pick a student every game to coach and fricking wing it.
