I guess we can add Buzz Peterson to the list... Its funny how Vol Nation couldn't stand these coaches when they were in Knoxville ,but now that they are gone they weren't bad guys.......Amnesia, I guess!!! We'll see how it goes with RIck Barnes, we see how satisfied yall are with 18-12 records and successive trips to the NIT......If you think he will get the talent at TN that he got at TX you are sadly mistaken. He never did anything at TX that I can recall...This years team were big time under achievers........But hey, 10s get 10s and 2s get 2s..........

Most of your list are coaches that were fired... But I agree about Barnes not as good anymore as he was at TX. He made the tourney yeah but never could get to the big games. Think best he ever did was a Final Four?
Fired...... Ran off.... Bout same thing in my mind!!!! Lol
Outside of KY and FL, it's very hard for SEC schools to get the top basketball coaches and it's mostly the SEC schools' fault. Look at Alabama and Anthony Grant. A very good coach from VCU. Cuonzo Martin. A coach can't build a program if he isn't able to see his first recruiting class graduate. I see where Marshall is remaining at Wichita St and spurned 'Bama. Shaka Smart isn't going to any SEC school. Archie Miller from Dayton said no way. Unlike the B1G and Pac 12, and even the Big 12 and ACC if you include Notre Dame, SEC schools, except for FL for a few years, just can't figure out that good football programs and good basketball programs can coexist. Look at the Final 4. Two B1G schools and both have strong football programs as well. Not to be seen in the vaunted SEC. Rick Barnes is going to have a rude awakening and will find out fast he's not in Texas, or Clemson, anymore. I wonder what Vegas would put as the over/under for him to leave before or after the average 3 year term of a UT basketball coach?

We've interviewed him twice, and he turned it down both times. I wouldn't have given him a third opportunity.
Maybe the Gators can get him
I would take him if BD decides to go to the NBA...
