Welcome Kim English

[hoops10]

wow, desire, attitude, work ethic, team oriented, success, how can you not feel energized by coach English. Its like a real breath of fresh air, man open the windows, get ready, come and compete. Good part is he has done it, been there, worked hard to get there. I will admit that I didn't give Brad Edwards any pats on the back for these last six years, but I am willing to give him a big thanks for acting quick to secure coach English. No doubt he would have been highly sought after. Now coach go find A10 quality players that will augment some of our existing players and make it happen.

Providence also offered. A MUCH better coming back home landing spot if he chooses. But he might also be a bench player on that team.

somebody has to tell him he doesn't belong in the Big East as a guard. I would hope one of his high school coaches or parents would give him so harsh reality.

To be fair, part of Kolek's motivation is probably that everyone told him he couldnt do X. But I digress. I'd love to keep the kid and see what English could do to help him for the next 4 years.

For us fans. But he'll need every day of those 7 (or so) months to get his team playing with the mindset and aggression he laid out in the presser. Culture change is a marathon.

I'm actually excited to see recruiting the next few months. Off season will not be dull this year!

Some thought another year of Paulsen would have been acceptable..........

Looks like we got our experienced former head coach: former Georgia head coach Dennis Felton is going to join the staff.

Not sure how I feel about a Fordham assistant coming here, but he played for Howard, coached at Oxon Hill.

Did I hear correctly that our former coach Harrington was at the presser?

Makes sense. Barnes was an assistant to Harrington.

And he was an assistant for Coach Barnes at Providence and Clemson. Later, he was on the same Tulsa staff as Coach English.

The grand unified coaching tree forms into a singularity in Kim English?

This article demonstrates how highly Vols fans regard English.

“Can Tennessee basketball maintain recruiting with Kim English leaving?”

Makes sense. Barnes was an assistant to Harrington.

And it makes even more sense when you factor in that Harrington left Mason to become the head coach at Colorado, where English ended up being an assistant.
