Something we don't need to forget in this...

......is that once again Griff comes off looking like an idiot.

Fan of the hire or not, we can all rejoice in this.

Unfortunately, you probably will be forgetting it again.

But I hope I'm wrong!

You only HOPED you could forget the nightmare that was Wade Houston...

1990 16-14
1991 12-22
1992 19-15
1993 13-17
1994 5-22

Then, of course, there were the losses to Alaska-Anchorage, Wisconsin-Green Bay, Western Carolina, Arkansas-Little Rock, a 101-40 loss to Kentucky, and a 119-87 loss to LSU.

He tied the UT record for most losses in a single season, TWICE.

If there has been a worse game-day coach in the history of SEC basketball, I have no idea who it would be. Some of those teams, I think we could have rolled out a basketball and let them play without a coach, and they would have done better. Wade was the only coach whose teams seemed to play worse coming out of a time-out.

Nice guy...but not head coaching material.
