“Let’s throw a mint at Jay Wright”

“Gregg Marshall will leave for the right price”

“Steve Prohm will take it even tho Iowa State is a better basketball job...”

“Let’s see what Leonard Hamilton is thinking...”

Add yours....

Clowns like that should be ignored. They're the reason we got in this mess to begin with. Bama wasted time with Marshall, when we could've gotten Archie Miller who was still at Dayton. Nevermind Barnes and Howland needed a job as well.

Steve Forbes is the target, do it!

I don't think ETSU has Koch brothers as boosters.

Barnes wasn't exactly a sexy hire when we hired him. He was seen mainly as a 'safe hire' that most thought would take us to some tourneys while stabilizing things, especially after Tyndall.

Alabama might do well to look at some of these 'safe guys' that aren't terribly sexy to fans but who can provide a stable foundation for a program. We got lucky with Barnes but the floor was also pretty high with him and I think he'll leave us in better shape than the majority of coaches we've had in my lifetime.

He wouldn't be a bad hire. Bama needs some stability just like we did.

Tony Barbee knows the ins and outs of Calipari’s system. Has recruiting connections throughout the southeast. Already broken down and ready for the come up.

Throw 4 mil at him and profit.

Thad Matta was damn near crippled due to a bad back at Ohio State. Has that been fixed somehow?

He didn't just quit, the guy could hardly walk, much less recruit or coach.

This is from back in 2015, it got worse from there:

I love how some of them want to fire the ex-NBA coach, and replace him with Bucky the HS coach.
