Floridas last two coaching hires were cheap reach hires 


So was Anthony Grant,Stan Heath, John Pelphrey, Johnny Jones, Trent Johnson, Donnie Tyndall among many others. We will see what White does once he had his own roster, he did finish 9th in the SEC with the same roster last year.

Johnny Jones
Was 51-49 in conference at UNT and in his mid 40s

quote:

Trent Johnson
Had already coached at a power 5 school and was in his mid 40s

So no those guys arent even remotely similar hires.



But yes, I agree that it is risky. But it is the only way to potentially hire a great coach at most SEC programs. You are going to have to take a risk.

We all know what that was

Trent


Very good hire on paper at the time

Tyndall


Thought that was a strange one.


There is risk with Wade but i like his pedigree, and the fact he has no previous ties to LSU. I think the majority of the fans would believe in this hire and buy into the culture change which is badly needed.
