This is the reason Josh has to go.

The last few points don't matter...as college coaches are paid to WIN COLLEGE GAMES.

Only about 40-45 American Hoop players are drafted by the NBA each and every year so if some players end up getting drafted, props to them.

Most college fans would prefer their team reach Elite 8 or Final Fours vs finishing near .500 but getting 1 or 2 players drafted by the NBA.

It matters if you want to recruit at a high level.

Not this garbage about how "he was the only one who would take the job" or "who are we going to get."

I can name 10 basketball coaching related reasons why he shouldn't be. Please, name some why he is the guy going forward.

Not one response.

Amazing.

Heck, I'm up for signing the music teacher (ot anybody like the guy below) if he can return Memphis to greatness and get max productivity out of players (TB, Shaq, Adonis etc)
