Go get him if we're looking for an up and comer. Coaching bloodlines, name recognition, he will likely be able to recruit, he has done pretty well at Minn, and he plays a style we'd like.

No way.  No more legacies.

8-10 in the Big Ten this year. The NIT championship is a bonus and his time spent on his father's staff and Billy D's staff helps, but I think Tennessee could wind up with someone a little more proven.

If Hart IS looking for an up-and-comer, though, I like Michael White at Louisiana Tech. He was regarded as an ace recruiter at Ole Miss and has done a really nice job at Louisiana Tech despite not yet making it to the NCAAT. 74-31 overall; 56-13 last two seasons, including 29-5 in league play and two first place ties. As they say..."We could do worse."

I'll take Byrd over anyone who has yet to go to the tournament with different personnel groups.

If you want somebody proven and pay something above $2.0M, then my first call would be to Jay Wright and not  Marshall. Wright makes $2.5M at Villanova and if he is interested in leaving the sinking ship of a conference he is in he might leave - just like Williams did Marquette for Va Tech of all places.

That would be a home run hire

Wright grew up in Pennsylvania and is married to a Villanova cheerleader. Don't see him even considering coming anywhere in the South, let alone Tennessee.

When the movie first came out, I heard it was a must see. I went and watched and laughed so hard I couldn't stand it! Never laughed as hard at a theater!
