I still want him as a coach. If we get him fine, if not OK also. I don't mind him believing in himself.

I agree. ND is playing great ball right now. I would have had them in my final 4 had they not been in UK's region. They just ran into a better team. I don't think the players played any different tonight than they would have.

BTW - he never said in that interview with Rome that it would take "a lot". He said if we want to make "Crazy Offer" he would listen and it would take that type of offer to get him to leave. Nothing "brash" about that. He never said the phrase "a lot"!

After tonight, and the way he's "blah blah blahed" about how big of an offer it's gonna take, I think we should tell him thank you and goodbye. This guy, (Go back in my posts) doesn't deserve the money we were talking about paying him.
I don't want him to be our coach and never have. Will I support him if he's hired? Yes.
We can do better.
He lost me when he went public and addressed the offer from us, or the possibility of an offer from us.
People say they "admire him" for his honesty.
His players didn't. He blew them out of the water. He was THEIR coach. Then he "maybe" was.
I think he's BS and NO, I don't want him.

So you prefer the BS of "I won't be Bama's coach or the worse BS "I'm focusing on my team blah blah..." when every single coach must privately address those issues.

As far as his team's "response" tonight, your arrogance is overwhelming. You nor I have a clue as to their mindset. I just know your conclusion flies in the face of past multiple expressions of support for their coach's possible personal advancement to another job. They have stated that they know it is a business and want the best for him. I go with logic and his players support over your pompous "insight" into other peoples' hearts as to what happened tonight.

I think you doubted seriously that Bama had the cache to land a coach of Marshall's caliber. If that is true I hope that has not corrupted your judgment as you comment.

I would honestly quit being a Bama basketball fan if that happened. I cannot stand Barnes and that goes back to Clemson. I remember ol Coach Smith almost went toe to toe with him one night. First time I ever seen Coach Smith mad enough that he wanted to fight I think on the court.

I'm still worried about the last 3 min. of the Bama/Fla SEC Championship game! I sure hope Antonio Langham does something.

Source: Texas AD Steve Patterson pressuring Rick Barnes to make staff changes. If assistants don't change, Patterson will change head coach.

I'm telling you guys....... Between Tennessee and Possibility Texas...... and more jobs opening up in next few days..

Personally I think Bama would be a better fit for Marshall than Texas. Tennessee would be interesting for him given its Bball passion. We're going to upgrade considerably which is why I'm optimistic. It is also why I put my order in for season tickets. I cancelled them in protest of them cashing in the last two seasons by keeping Grant.

In other news WV players should have kept their mouths shut about UK. What a thrashing.
