    Easy to fire a .500 coach, nothing really lost there

    Four coaches in six years.

    Could be worse. I've gone through over a decade of Leonard Hamilton.

    That UT AD needs to be gone.

    Honestly, I think Hart has done a decent job. There was no indication of any wrong doing at Southern Miss. Only until an ex-assistant coach that Tyndall didn't bring to UT went to the NCAA. Hart should get blowback for sure, but financially he has done wonders after walking into the **** storm left from Hamilton.

    I don't follow UT Sports outside of football and basketball so probably can't truly evaluate the entire job the man is doing but, as we know, he ran off Martin and replaced him with a guy with a checkered NCAA past. His judgement needs to be questioned and he be held accountable for his decisions.

    Who knows how long it'll take for UT basketball to recover?

    Right now, his most important decision looks good. That is the pass I give him.

    I'd rather they keep the Lady Vols tradition as well.

    Now, he didn't run Martin off. He actually offered him a raise and extension which Martin agreed to in principle. It was Martin that chose to leave. Hart had nothing to do with the idiot petition out there.

    We both know he did little to show support for him when all that stuff went down. And, if I remember correctly, this offer to keep him was well below what a coach of a team who just went to the Sweet 16 should receive.

    As for Butch, I don't give the man a ton of credit when he was third on his list.

    UT can do better, IMO. Hart better hit a home run with this new hire so the men's basketball program doesn't have a three-year setback.
