For the life of me I cannot fathom why anyone would want Travis Ford at this time. He has proved nothing yet. Give him a gig at a mid "Big 6" level team and then look at him down the road. Right now would be way to early.

:thumb: He won't be on the short list. Maybe in 5 or 10 years.

So you are saying as long as the game is exciting and uptempo, with lots of points, that is all that matters?????

 

UK fans want wins in March... uptempo, slow, defense, grind it out, all matter not!!! It is win in March...

 

I guess you missed the part about NBA TALENT... which play fast uptemp games in the NBA. Watch the Mavs and Spurs play sometime.

Gillespie would be my first choice. Pearl would be second. I like Pearl's enthusiasm. He is not a cheap Pitino clone like Cal and Ford, but his style of play might satisfy some of the more unreasonable fans for a while.

 

BTW. Tenn is putting it on OSU right now.

reunite with Rick Pitino

I am with you there.

Well, let's see. Among the coaches mentioned in this thread....

 

Bruce Pearl - LOST tonight

Billy Gillespie - LOST tonight

Jamie Dixon - LOST tonight

 

Only John Calipari won and that's because he played Gillespie :lol:

 

How does this bode for Billy Donovan against Butler??

Maybe they all lost tonight on purpose so that they could officially start contract talks with UK.

23 of you have lost all credibility.

23 of you have lost all credibility.

 

 

How so???

 

 

Because they have an opinion that is different than yours?

As long as his name's Billy and he's in the poll I'm happy.

 

I'm marking Donovan out because I just don't think he'll do it.. Gillespie could be up for the challenge... He's my guy.

I think they will go after the coach from Gonzaga really hard.

Quick hire... you act as if coaches are waiting to coach UK... I would say the list is very short...

I agree. After how Tubby resign, not to many people are excited about coaching under a rediculous microscope.

VCU coach...:thumb:

my list

 

1. Pitino

2. Donovan

3. D antoni

4. Calipari

Pearl

 

And if we can't get these guys

 

Travis Ford

 

 

We need a big name, uptempo that can recruit, or a Ky guy that cares about the program!
