Tennessee is having trouble hiring a basketball coach
http://espn.go.com/mens-college-bask...bulldogs-coach
White is supposedly the 3rd or 4th guy they have targeted. Just goes to show you that in today's CBB world, if the cupboard looks bare, it's hard to make a good hire.

Have they reached out to Tyndall yet? I would assume he would be next if they already haven't contacted him
-
Stands may luck into this job yet.
It's the roller coaster of hope that this program keeps us on that makes it hell being a State fan. - CadaverDawg, 10/15/22

Andy Kennedy breathes a sigh of relief...

Why would they try to hire another coach from La Tech? How'd that work out for them last time?

Annddd the Rebs' former HCIW is the new Tennessee basketball coach. Underwhelming hire for them on paper -- but I think White is a good coach...

I think he's a better coach than Martin. That's just my opinion until White has coached ~3 years at UT, but I think White's ceiling is much much higher.

So Michael White turned Tennessee down. What an idiot. He could have made some real money. I guess he could be holding out for the Mizzou job which is better then Tennessee. Both the Tennessee and Mizzou jobs are better then Ole Miss and La Tech. If he is holding out for the Ole Miss job, he will not do well there. Andy Kennedy is their ceiling in basketball. No history, facilities suck, fan support sucks at Ole Miss. I am surprised Kennedy hasn't left for a "lesser" job.

Michael White is ten times the coach Andy Kennedy is. I'm not claiming Ole Miss would become a ten times better program, but I will take my chances as an MSU fan with any coach we ever have against Kennedy as long as they will have him.

Looks like it's USM coach Donnie Tyndall according to ESPN.

Donnie Tyndall was the guy I was hoping would replace Ray. Really good hire for Tennessee.

Good hire for Tennessee. Does this make USM the landing zone for Stansbury?
-
Tennessee got turned down 4-5 times....that should put our search in perspective for Strick ...I'm not saying he did a good job, but I am saying there was an extreme level of difficulty
Stands to Southern might be a good fit. Good landing spot for him

they've had constant trouble with football and basketball coaches and money seems to be a bit more of an issue for them than it ever has before. Also, and I don't know if this is playing a part or not, but I have to wonder if some racial tensions found their way into the booster & coach relationship. If so, that could really leave a terrible scar there.

Stands to USM would screw us.
