Head coach at ETSU and a heck of a recruiter under Pearl...good BB coach and paid his dues. Jason Shay is on his staff and is an excellent X/O's guy.

Who?

pretty cheap too

Half a mill

cheaper than I thought

He wins

He prospers

Just talked to him

We good with the Aaron Craft? I don't know.....I'm good if you are.

He looks like the turtle in Dana Carvey's "Master of Disguise"

Make Pearl say no. If he says no, then Forbes is the guy I'd get.

His team is 19-10. 19-10 will get you fired here.

Irrelevant really. He's at East Tn State. The guy is fantastic with x and o's, his players love him and his eye for talent is better than damn near anyone.
If we indeed hire him he'll be a smash hit with all facets of this job.

If you are right he should have a better record. He is under achieving at East Tn State and the other post is correct. Going 19-10 would get him fired here and you would be the first one to jump on board to fire him.

One of the dumbest things i've heard in a while.

Forbes will not excite the fan base or get them back at the Forum immediately. Very few knows who he is and telling people to read his Wikipedia page isn't going to cause high fives everywhere. Maybe he will win people over in the team play down the road, next year or year after that and in recruiting but fans of his need to temper expectations that he will be receive with open arms here because he certainly is not a 'wow' hire as 'wow' hires are perceived

Not according to 450bench and we all know he is never wrong. i will vote for him to be our AD,since he wants him gone also.

Nice.
I have said he'd be an outstanding hire. Some may disagree and that's fine.
