March 17, 200719 yr Seriously? You fill out lineup cards all year and you screw it up in the opening round of the tournament? :lol: Then Billy Packer makes a comment about firing the assistant...
March 17, 200719 yr This definately doesn't help his job security... I think all 3 assistants should be gone.
March 17, 200719 yr Billy needs to be relegated to the ACC games only...He might actually have a clue to what's going on with at least ONE team!!
March 17, 200719 yr Author Billy needs to be relegated to the ACC games only...He might actually have a clue to what's going on with at least ONE team!! And it might be Kentucky...:sssh: Hobbs could be on his way out...
March 17, 200719 yr And it might be Kentucky...:sssh: Hobbs could be on his way out... I'm not disputing the fact that Hobbs )or someone) screwed up the lineup card,or that he and the other assistants may be on thier way out....It just irks me that Billly Packer would make the statement on national TV,when the only person on CBS or any other (sic..ESPN) station who has a clue about the college game is Clark Kellogg and he's stuck in the studio doing commentary!! (I guess I just had too much of Curt Gowdy doing baseball in the 70's with an obvious Dodgers bias!!!) And I agree...Hobbs (and the rest of the assistants) may be on his way out!!!

March 17, 200719 yr Doesn't help Hobbs' job status. OTS in his post-game interview said it was Hobbs that messed up. He actually joked about it.

March 17, 200719 yr Doesn't help Hobbs' job status. OTS in his post-game interview said it was Hobbs that messed up. He actually joked about it. No way this influences Hobbs' job status, surely you are kidding about that. Is this really a big deal? I say laugh it off and move on, it was an insignificant mistake.
March 17, 200719 yr I thought it was funny! They could have let him play until play stopped. He sure is good at picking up a foul though, isn't he?
March 17, 200719 yr Author No way this influences Hobbs' job status, surely you are kidding about that. Is this really a big deal? I say laugh it off and move on, it was an insignificant mistake. Agreed. It's not a big deal, and it is something you laugh off. It could happen to anyone. I just think it's very indicative of the season as a whole.
March 17, 200719 yr Maybe Hobbs knows something... The CATS are undefeated with D. Perry in the starting line up.......... :D
March 17, 200719 yr I'll share about David Hobbs and after I do tell me what you think. He had an assistant at Bama who was from Louisville Kermit Koenig (sp). Kermit was at Bama several years when he got a form of cancer. He missed a lot of time as a coach and had to give up his job. His insurance eventually ran out. He still had the cancer. Coach Hobbs went to the officals and pleaded with them to help with Kermit's problem. After several meetings they agree with Coach Hobbs and Kermit's bill was taken care of. Kermit died two years later leaving a wife and I believe two small children. Maybe Coach Hobbs isn't doing a great job, but he is a great person. We don't see the behind the scenes of what goes on. I hope he stays.

If his job is on the line, maybe it does, I don't know. You never know what the adm. is thinking. However, as I stated, OTS laughed it off in his post-game remarks. My point is, this wasn't a good thing to happen if he is one of the assistants they are looking to replace.
