We don't have a Bball coach opening at the moment. Let's focus on the football team as coach Barnes isn't going anywhere anytime soon!
Agree. But still ADs should maintain an iterative list of coaching replacements for each sport. montitor those lists and continuously update.

I’m hoping it will be Kim English. Barnes seems to be grooming him to be a head coach. He’s also one of the best recruiters out there.

I posted this as a thread in football but applies here too:

I have not seen anyone mention this, however I believe DW with totally change our leverage with the league office across all platforms. I think he gives instant regal credibility and will fight for UT instead of rolling over dead like everyone since Dickey. Hopefully he starts with the constant fouling cheap shots on John Fulkerson to get the refs back in line!

English needs to go out and prove himself. I think our profile is good enough to get an established coach. We have been relevant most of the last 15 years or so.

White said his decision begins and ends with the players. That’s how he ended up promoting Oats at Buffalo because of his interviews w the players. I think a lot will depend on what Barnes is able to accomplish between now and when he retires. Hard to say who we’d hire.

I would like to see Steve Forbes do well at Wake Forest and be a candidate, but he is having a rough year 1 there

Tennessee will be a very desirable job for any head coach when Barnes leaves and White will be able to cherry pick from many candidates.

Why is this board so intent on hiring UCF coaches??? Can we aspire higher?

Plus If Danny White is still AD when Barnes retires in hopefully 10 years, then White will have done a great job at hiring a football coach.
