which means most likely Shawn Forrest and Jermaine Johnson will get bumped up to Asst Coach and Larry will back fill one of those roles.

Absolutely. Larry ups our program’s national profile. He’s good for several closeups and nice comments from the announcers every broadcast game.
Plus, he’s a pull with recruits and a great help on the bench.
Exactly! GREAT NEWS!! Larry Brown could be on the Mt Rushmore of NCAA Bball HC.
BTW: my Mt Rushmore of NCAA College Coaching is Coach K (# wins), Adolph Rupp (win %), John Wooden (Titles), Bob Knight.
Close but no cigar IMO: Roy Williams, Dean Smith, Jim Boeheim, Bill Self, Phog Allen and Larry Brown
3rd Tier: Bob Huggins, Jim Calhoun
Jerry Tarkanian, Rick Pitino and Cal are all special in their own right, but aren't "clean" enough in public opinion (mostly BS) to go on the Mt Rushmore .
Jim Phelan, Lefty Driessel and Mark Phew are special too. Love how they've made a name for themselves and remained as pillars for their universities rather than "stepping up" to a Blue Blood.
Mine are Dana Kirk--Larry Finch--Gene Bartow--Bobby Knight--Anfernee Hardaway--the guy that won a global championship--Verties Sales Sr.--Wayne Yates--Lee Fowler

Mods please delete this thread.
So true. Crazy that he's coming back to work with a HC who just won't listen to him.
It would be interesting to see who all told us he was gone. But I'm not going to do the legwork.
In the media - John Martin for sure, when he wasn't giggling that Brown might be dead this time next year. Calkins and GP I don't think ever said definitely gone, but they said likely gone.

Were you one of the ones saying he's gone because Penny doesn't listen to him? Just curious.

Kirk had a great basketball mind and similar to that Ky transplant as a salesman/showman. Likely the greatest embarrassment in our history for complete absence of academic integrity. And our President/AD both defaulted it to him.

there fixed it for you
You hate Bobby Knight? LMAO!!
Bobby wore his sack in the front and not the back like that group you support.
A gal once told me the closest she ever came to a lesbian experience was kissing a liberal man.

Traveling the country as I do --when people find out I am from MEMPHIS --invariably people mention the great Keith Lee/Dana Kirk/Larry Finch/DeAngeio Williams/Rose/Penny etc----but not once has anyone ever mentioned academic integrity . So who cares-nobody cares --don't believe me --the NCAA proved it when they turned an eye on North Carolina ----do you think the average TIGER fan gives a crap if Rose took the test or not ---they only care and remember the games
By the way the other thing people mention to me is how they still always call us MEMPHIS STATE---the name change and the stickers are the greatest embarrassment and MISTAKE ---oh and maybe punting from our opponents 25-30 ? yard line ---oh and letting the charlatan/grifter/thief/ Smith make the statements he made and not immediately firing his azz and posse etc etc
