Tennessee still projected in the tourney

The Martin lovers keep spreading the gossip that Hart won't let this pos go because of money so anyone who cares about the program should quit going to games if it is all about money.

It's one thing to say that he is a horrible coach, that's understandable. But to call him a POS, just makes you the one that's a POS. He's a good high character man and a way better man than you from what you just did.

This probably is the most likely scenario, but if he does get fired, CCM really should try to find a job with someone outside the Purdue system. Expanding his horizons and learning something besides motion offense and "guard harder" should be his goal, if he ever wants another D1 head coaching job.

I really could care less where he goes...just as long as he goes.

I really don't think Hart will hire another coach until Pearl gets a job somewhere else next year. Wait til Pearl is hired by another university, then the buyout will also be cut in half at the same time, then the search is on.

Maybe I have the timing wrong, but Pearl's show cause expires in August, 2014 - correct. If that's the case, nobody is hiring him this Spring, but he'd be a very hot candidate in the Spring of 2015. So, if Hart is waiting until after CCM's fourth year to make a move, that may put him right in the eye of the Pearl storm.

Pearl is actively petitioning the NCAA to reduce his show cause to end in March. If that happens he could be hired this spring.

That's stupid; he also hasn't said he won't bring back Jerry Green, Buzz Peterson, or Kevin O'Neil, so does that mean they have a shot of returning too?

Again you are reading more into this than I stated.
PS. This conversation with bleed pertains to a discussion in another thread.

Hope the NCAA grants the request. I agree Hart won't be starting any coaching search at a time when Bruce Pearl is on the market.

Oh no doubt, and I'm not trying to say otherwise. I posted for 2 reasons...1. it's the most updated bracket and some people enjoy looking at them and 2. To show evidence that the sky isn't falling after the A&M loss.

Lose a couple more like that and yea we are in trouble, but right now our resume even with 2 bad losses is still tourney quality.

Seriously? The fact that we're even having to discuss this yet again should tell you all you need to know. But no, cheer up fellas. The sky isn't falling! We're still in the tournament in the play-in game! Yippee!!!!

With the penalties that has been given out recently, I do not see how the NCAA could not grant his request....especially, if they want to avoid a lawsuit.

I think he'll get hired in the Spring no matter what. Whatever school hires him just has to show that he won't be around players or recruits until August when the show cause runs up. He can put together a staff, and have them start recruiting and working the players out while he's working with admin.

Which means we need to sign him fast.

This is Martin's 3rd year. I wouldn't call getting fired after 3 seasons and no tournament appearances a very short leash at all.

The post I quoted asked why he wasn't fired after last yr. That is what I was responding to. This year is sealing CCM's fate. IMO

The sky is falling anyway. If we are projected in the playin game at this point it may already be on the ground.
