Tee Martin. A guy who's never been a HC before. What a splash hire, Tennessee.

Sometimes it's simply not in the cards to be able to make a splash hire. Doesn't mean you can't make a hire that's a good fit with pretty decent chances of turning out well.

Example: Dabo Swinney was never more than a position coach before becoming CU's HC.

Tee Martin is a very good fit. Biggest risk factor is lack of HC experience. With top flight assistant, shadow and support staff, and Fulmer there to help him during the learning curve of the CEO aspects of the job, that risk seems to drop significantly.
