Subject: Let me add that I don't think the job is an impossible task. In fact, Tennessee could be a major hoop power if the right guy gets the job and works very hard to recruit top players and also pounds the pavement drumming up interest from alums and Orange fans in the Knoxville area. But it will take a lot of hard work and determination.
In reply to: Rambacker 's message, "Interesting background on Tennessee's athletic, but I will have to disagree with you on two fronts: First, I have talked to many Div. 1 basketball coaches who have said the job at Tennessee is avoided by many potentially strong candidates because of the belief that no one can ever win consistently there(this is a reality), and I would have to continue to maintain that the effort needed to turn the program around there will be herculean - changing the athletic dept. culture at UT, the ultimate football school, while recruiting at a high level in SEC territory will be very, very difficult, to say the least. When is the last time UT had a Final Four team? Or even a Sweet 16 team?" on Wed March 23, 2005 23:37:56
