    Only good thing about Novak is we could save money which should be the plan in women's hoops. But Cohen doesn't have that luxury. He can't have another bad hire.

    We gave Vic some big money and he earned it.

    Hire Novak- we dont have to pay him big at all. Then use the extra to bump some assistants that can recruit. The pay gap in girls basketball is HUGE. using a couple hundred K to pay a couple of recruiters on staff can get us a decent staff and some players.

    We did that with Richard Williams. Williams could coach- hated recruiting. So we gave him John Brady who built our SEC Title team in 1991. Then we hired Stands- who helped build the 1996 team. Dont forget Robert Kirby during that time because he was a big factor as well.

    Use the same equation and do it on the girls side

    To say Novak is not technically qualified suggests one did not watch the games. Now maybe it?s hard to evaluate his recruiting ability but the players want him and he is a good technical coach.

    Yeah- the guy proved he can coach. To act like he didnt is ridiculous. Recruiting is now what has to be addressed. Do we feel he can get players? Whats that plan moving forward?

    What top 25 coach is available? And why risk it? Hire Novak, there is more to lose if you don't, plus the players want to play for him
