UAB has hired assistant Robert Ehsan, sources told ESPN.
Thank goodness all the fans pressured him into doing this against his will or we wouldn't have a basketball program anymore.
If this turns out to be true (and I'd say it is, given the source), good on Ingram for making what he thought was the best choice even though all the fans will give themselves the credit or call it a no-brainer move when they have no idea what it is like to be an AD or make a hire like this.
Good on you, Ingram.
Maybe this outcome will teach people around here to chill the F out and let processes work themselves out before they set everything on fire.

Now that is funny...
Good on you, Mark Ingram. Even if Ehsan was your guy all along I applaud you for doing your due diligence and making sure you were choosing the best man for the job.

Made me spit out my drink!
Good news! Now let's see who he hires for his assistants. Make them good ones, Rob.
I suggest people thank Mark publicly for making what we believe is a good hire and giving him the credit for doing it.
What is Ingrams email address?
Way to hang on to the ball Ingram!

I would think Turner Battle might get one of the assistant spots.
Yes. He (TB) will keep a position in the staff. Confirmed last week. ;-)

Today was a Great Hire in the process of UAB Basketball. We hired a future Champion who will keep his current players as he recruited the current team (who did not lose a game at home) (the Bartow) and they will win again and if he recruited these guys then he can recruit the next players who are just as good and better then these guys who we got coming from the court to play next year these guys will stay cause these guys want to see who he can possiblly recruit better then me and he will like the next. We got our man... know all we have to do is Schedule and Play. /and Recruit Again, and Again. and Again. And win our Next Game.

I agree wholeheartedly.
