They aren't going to fire him with the flux that their department is currently in. New AD, new football coach, and new basketball coach in the same year is kind of a bad idea for the most part.

Gottlieb was on with Petro and they talked about Frank and other jobs. Gottlieb's opinion is that the biggest threat for Frank would be going home to the U.

Yeah. Close proximity to Florida. Much easier to recruit to Atlanta. Fair amount of success in recent years.

Still not worried. IMO Frank won't leave to get "close" to Florida. He'll leave to go to Florida when the right job opens there. Of course I am rarely right about anything FWIW.

lots of openings among similar schools/areas. will be interesting, competitionwise.

I may be Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!), but I worry more about a Big East job than a Fl job. Isn't his wife from Boston?

Would get him in THE bb league and near home for his wife.

i'd just worry about really good jobs, and not pay a whole lot of attention to where they are.

I can't wait for Frank to be on TV and say "I'm stayin"

You can bet he's going to be a real dick to the poor media schmuck that tentatively asks him about it

Do you consider of the openings "really good"? I don't think I do. GT is probably the closest.

Jumping from a BCS to a non-blue-blood BCS is just super rare these days. Purnell was really weird. Bennett to UVA was kind of weird too.

I think UVA just got a brand new arena, they're in a mostly down ACC, and it's really a decent area to recruit to. Charlottesville is a great town, and the university is about as good as it gets.

I think UVA can be a good job with the right coach. Conversely, I don't think anyone really wants to stay in Pullman all that long.

Of the current openings, ark has best combo of support, money, locale, etc. that said, they have really not made a gray hire since nolan left

arkansas is really close. ou & gtech right behind them.

dunno, i mean they're better than kstate. but as a coach, you do have to be careful about burning up your accumulated store of goodwill - you'll never have that again at any job. or at least never be able to accumulate it as quickly as at your first job.

it's great that martin's behavior is considered embarrassing by some people. really helps keep the worry down.

quick question. should we be openly talking as horribly about martin as possible in order to try and keep him? bomb GT bball sit
es w/ reports about how horrible of a person he is and how we want him gone cause he's such a loose cannon, etc?

i mean, i have spare time and all.
