nice reply. they have alot more cash than we do period.1) The socio-economic structure there is FAR superior to East Tennessee 2) they have 65,000 undergrads enrolled. = more donations. 3) their wealthy donors outnumber ours and they have more of them. We do quite well in K-town but, we are no Texas when it comes to funds. And oh by the way, these coaches you want don't work for free.

The money is only one part of the equation though. To get a big name coach, WE have to do the sales job and convince them why they should come to the coach graveyard that has become of our men's b-ball program.

I concur GaVol. The last 2 coaches to take us to the dance got fired before the next season started though. That makes for a tough sell, agree?

Its why so many of the "experianced" coaches will not come to K-town. Money, reputation, football and support.

That's why when I see names like Rick Barnes, Skip Prosser etc. I wonder why they'd even consider us.

That's cool Sarge, I don't need all the educating that you think I do though...

However, I appreciate your generosity. I consider myself lucky to have a mentor such as yourself. :thumbsup:
