    Tubby Smith negotiating deal to coach High Point

    I didn't realize how much Tubby forced Memphis to hire him. Seems to me he was liked by most everyone. His years at Tulsa, Georgia, Kentucky, Minnesota, Texas Tech, and Memphis along with several Coach of the year awards puts him in a very elite group of coaches known as the Hall of Fame. In...

    Tubby Smith negotiating deal to coach High Point

    TUNNY H Tubby is second only to Rupp in National Championships at UK. Was never investigated by FBI or NCAA. Never failed to take his team to NCAA tourney, only UK coach to hold that record. I believe you have hearing problems with the rumor about Lindsay Wilson job, just does not sound...

    Block/charge rule has crushed UK in the NCAAT

    I would think any call that was wrong would affect both sides. You admit that carrying the ball enhances the offense, so why should either get an advantage. Just like illegal screens, they get away with fouls every game. Every team has its pride, whether its defense or offense. one should not...

    Block/charge rule has crushed UK in the NCAAT

    I think the charge/block is one of the hardest call to make, thats is why the refs are so inconsistent. I agree there is room for improvement. What bothers me the most is the no- calls. Carrying the ball could be called nearly every trip up the floor and its not hard to spot. We could talk...

    Block/charge rule has crushed UK in the NCAAT

    Just a question about your comment on whether a charge should be called. Who determines if it is a 100% charge or not.? just curious

    Tubby Smith negotiating deal to coach High Point

    I think when you look at the coaches who have played the recruiting game, is paying a high price for it and being called cheaters. They have hurt their reputation along with their schools. Some coaches care less how they are looked upon for cheating. Tubby had too much character to take that route.

    Tubby comes home

    This will be a good move for High Point and Tubby if it pans out. Tubby has been in coaching for several years, and probably leads all coaches in ethics, character and honestly. I don't believe he has ever been questioned by NCAA on recruiting. despite having an outstanding won and loss...

    What more do people want?? Seriously

    you are completely forgetting what Cals goal was. It was'nt winning another championship it was how many of his freshmen was drafted in first round of NBA draft. Its way too early to speculate on that. He may hit jackpot again this year and get several drafted. After all its the draft picks...

    This whole thing with the NCAA can be fixed easliy

    Your post makes way too much sense. Cheaters would have to go by the rules. Coaches would have to live on a meager salary , say maybe 3-4 MILLION a year. Athletes would have to make passing grades and even go to class. Hundreds of NCAA investigators would be out of work. What you are really...

    The NCAA should look into a financial aid system..

    I think you hit the nail on the head. These players don't bring in any more money than they used too. You are right some of the coaches make a ridiculous amount of money. can you imagine coaches making 5-8 million for 1 year? It's all about greed. Players just need to be patient, their...
