2019 Coaching Carousel

Pretty sure he turned down Bama before they hired Avery Johnson as well. Like it never got to a formal offer, but he was a target, they wanted to interview, and he said no before the process began

Now that I think about it, you're correct in that I think they did pursue him awhile back. I think it's a pipe dream.

That's a pipe dream IMO. If he didn't leave for UCLA or NC State he isn't going to Bama IMO. But $$$ talks. So we'll see.

Yep. At some point a guy has to decide if he is willing to cash the checks even though the job is a worse job. "I may get beat more often at this new place but I've got to do it so my kids/grandkids will be taken care of financially."

Don Haskins passed on many, many lucrative offers over the years to stay in the desert. Said they weren't a fit for him even if the money was a lot better. Even though his family wasn't destitute by him staying, his family wasn't as well taken care of as they could have been.

I'd like to see Bama go after the HC at UCF.

Wow. That's actually pretty big news. I think BYU is a pretty good gig. Wouldn't have any earthly idea who would be a potential replacement.

Kelvin Sampson probably gets the first call for Arkansas since our AD hired him at Houston.

Our reporters saying we’re willing to pay up to $4 million for the next coach which would be the first time our basketball coach has ever made more than the football coach.

That was very fast. I suspect collusion.

Kind of surprising. I don't know how well his coaching & recruiting abilities will translate in the SEC, but I have far more confidence in him than I ever had in Avery Johnson.
