Pearl isn't coming back next year but neither is Martin

I just hope the next coach isn't an assistant who's so obscure that nobody except the AD has heard of him!

Why are people so convinced that bruce is coming back? What are you all going to do when we hire someone else, because that is what will happen if we fire Martin.

Mick Cronin from Cincinnati- High school prospects want to ensure that when they sign with a program their coach will be there for the longevity of their eligibility with the team. Coaches target and begin talking to players sometimes as early as their sophomore or junior year of high school. So keeping a contract at around 6-7 years long lessens the likelihood of Cronin being axed by UC* while he is playing for the Bearcats.

*This would never happen. UC loves Mick and visa versa. But it’s good for the high school players to see that mutual commitment in writing.

If Lance’s tweets hold true, Mick Cronin will make roughly $1 million more in his new contract than the last time he signed an extension. Bringing the UC head coach up to the $2 million club is critical for Bearcats basketball. In the simplest of terms, this pay bump makes it that much more expensive for other schools to poach Cronin from Cincinnati. Now, we all know he’s worth that money and more, but most schools won’t take that risk.

Still, while throwing money at Mick will certainly keep him happy and ensure he won’t leave Cincinnati if a more perfect job comes along, this is but one task among many that Bohn needs to accomplish on the basketball side. He still needs to address the outdated arena issue and give the UC head coach and his staff a larger recruiting budget. But if this news today is any indication, the new Cincinnati athletic director more than understands the situation at hand and will do what it takes to fulfill those needs for Mick Cronin.

With CBJ on board you never know, good coach at rebuilding a program.

It would be nice for Tennessee to get somebody like Kansas State head coach Bruce Weber. He's a darn good coach and has a 358-171 record

Thread title could be half right, completely right or completely wrong.

If this is up for discussion, there are plenty of other threads on the board which addresses every point in your post.

If this is breaking news straight off the wire then I guess you need to provide a link.

Thanks for your input and I will bite. Was this a dream or was it just something you felt we needed to address for the 1000th time.

My best guess is that we will not know until it happens.

Bruce show cause- August 2014

Marshall passed over twice

Howland style = Kevin O'Neill/Buzz Peterson combo

Rocky Top is a little different than Westwood

How about we wait and see who's hired?

My bet is we get CCM for one more year.
