April 6, 200719 yr As the next coach. these other names just don't excite me. Heard that him and Barnheart were big buddies....could happen.
April 6, 200719 yr And Few does excite you? Over Matta, Gillespie and so on? Wow... My list as of now would be: 1.) Gillispie/D'Antoni 2.)Thad Matta 3.)Few, Crean, Izzo, who cares.
April 6, 200719 yr No way, not for me! Few just doesn't excite me at all, being successful at Gonzaga and being successful at UK are two different beasts! Mitch Barnhart better make the RIGHT hire or his days in Lexington will be numbered as well!
April 6, 200719 yr As the next coach. these other names just don't excite me. What about Few excites you? Not saying he isn't a solid coach but definitely on the second tier.
April 6, 200719 yr Author And Few does excite you? Over Matta, Gillespie and so on? Wow... Few, plays an exciting style and has done well with Gonzaga. Plays a solid non-conference schedule and has had success in NCAA with a small school. I think he could do great things at UK. Just my personal opinion. Matta would be good but names such as Gillispie-has not been good over many years Crean, one great year with some player named Wade Calipari- had UMASS on probation Barnes-what has he really done Izzo- same style as Tubby plus he has had several 10 loss seasons Ford- don't trust him at all
April 6, 200719 yr If you have heard Few speak about college basketball coaching jobs I do not think he would be interested in the UK job at all.

April 6, 200719 yr I like Few. Several posters have compared Gonzaga and UK, but that is not the point. Look at the coaching. Few and Gonzaga had been every bit as competitive against UK's common opponents: North Carolina Gonzaga W 82-79 KY L 75-63 Memphis Gonzaga L 78-77 ot KY L 80-63 Georgia Gonzaga L 96-83 KY L 78-69 ot W 82-70 Looks very even to me. Not bad for a small West Coast school versus the the Big Blue.
