Arkansas has done stole away Florida's tennis coach. Jackson's teams at Miss. St. and UF have been to 22 straight NCAA tennis tournaments.

AdmiralD Jeff Long isn't dicking around anymore in the country club sports.

I just had them laying around and I know it's late and the Arkansas poster base is diminished. Figured I'd use them.

Congrats on the coach.

ETA: Pretty sure there isn't a Chicagoan that doesn't love sausage. Wisconsin sausage is the problem.

Stole him from the unemployment line. We got rid of him last summer.

Exactly. Jeremy Foley canned his arse and allowed him to save face by "stepping down".

Foley doesn't mess around. Several years of merely top 10 finishes is not good enough for Foley.

He only "stepped down" a year ago, nevertheless the new guy took the team to the NCAA tournament.

This is just how Foley operates. Being close is not enough, when it looks like you have reached your potential as a coach, he finds the person to go to the next level.

ummmm, Billy Donovan, Will Muschamp, and whoever your baseball coach is kinda contradicts that statement.

Billy Donovan? The guy that has won 2 national titles? You are going to have to explain to me how he fits into what I described.

Muschamp is still early in his career at UF, but I wouldn't consider him safe by any estimation. If he doesn't win an SEC title within a few years he probably won't be around.

And O'Sullivan isn't safe either. Foley has been particularly short with baseball coaches. Fired Andy Lopez and Pat McMahon.

Andy Jackson had been at UF for 10 years and there was no upward movement. When that happens, your time is up.

Maybe now Arkansas can actually win an SEC match next year. Although I did see them play in the SEC tourney in Oxford, and I really enjoyed watching them play. I loved their 1 doubles pair Jeske and Nott.

You said when a coach reaches his potential Foley replaces him with the guy that can take it higher.

Billy D is still there and it's been 5 years since a tourney win. Textbook regression.

I really wish Florida wouldve missed the postseason this year... Cause if they missed it again next season Foley might go in a different direction... Talk about an AD that doesnt frick around... Then OM could bring in O'Sullivan next June.... And he could bring some of his top 3 ranked recruiting classes to Oxford.
