Anyone with a pulse.  This is the worst basketball in the country to watch.  No offense, lazy defense and a coach that just stares at the court regardless of what is happening.  I watched 10 minutes of it tonight and said I am done...not gonna watch anymore.

You should have stuck around.  We really threw a wrinkle at them at the end.  We went to a match up zone, and CJ Jones was guarding their point guard FROM BEHIND.  Yes, you read that right.  He was off to the side so far that as the FLA player dribbled the ball, the ball was completely in front of Jones.  I've never seen anything like that before.  I'm not kidding...the FLA player looked confused, almost as if he was thinking..."Does he know our basket is this way?" 

I have NEVER seen ANY basketball team so unwilling to get in front of a player dribbling the ball.  It's as if they can't wait to let their player go by so they are done playing defense for the possession.  I know exactly why you turned it, because watching them dribble right to the basket uncontested like they have 5 Allen Iverson's on the floor is the most ridiculous thing in the world.  The announcer tried at one point to subtly suggest that we aren't great at "on the ball" defense.  REALLY?  No, surely not.   :o
I've never wanted a Hog coach to be successful more than I do for Pittman.  He's one of the good guys.

Nolan has no interest in coming back
Not even for "Mike Anderson money" and one of those statues he wanted?

Lon Kruger? OU is a good basketball program with great tradition, but Arkansas does too. If we take our scarlet colored glasses off, is it a step or down?

Guy can coach and wins anywhere he is at.

Will never happen. He hates us for the way we treated Pelphrey.
Different leadership at the school and athletic department now. Donovan would have to be very petty to still carry a grudge over Pel.

If Donovan goes back to college next year, I think it will be at Louisville.

We'd have a better shot with Fred Hoiberg.

Bigmac2

Dana Altman, do you think he would want to come back home.

ballinhog

Matt McCall would be my pick. Young up and comer very similar to Mike White and Will Wade. That's just off the top of my head though, if I really thought Mike was getting fired and really started looking at coaches I could very possibly fine someone I'd like more

MAGA45

Will Wade 100%.  And with his entire staff.  They were an impressive bunch when they throttled us in front of 18,000. All the coaches were up and coaching hard the entire game.

It is a good thing that I retired from being a MOD is this forum. It would have been sent to the trash

Why? If you take out all the negative posting there would only be 5 people talking amongst themselves.....

 Chris Beard. Oh wait has he won 2 rd games all year? Not easy on the road even by what some say are great coaches.

Triple T

If Billy Donovan gets fired and doesn't go to Louisville (for whatever reason), he'd obviously be the guy you go after. That being said, I've wanted Gregg Marshall since we fired Heath.

Chris Beard won a road game at Kansas.  That's one more road game than we've won this year.

razrbakr1

If Arkansas brass wants it bad enough there are several young coaches that could be had.
Chris Beard heads that list.  Offer the money and don't go cheap.  But Anderson will be here another year even after laying an egg with what was supposed to be his best team and half the fan base will still praise him.

Top ten team in second season. Ours can't get us ranked in year 7. I'd take Beard in a heartbeat.

I don't think MA has support of half the fanbase anymore. Half want to move on, 25% don't care anymore, and 25% like him more than winning.

stronguard

Is anyone really suprised that MA is being shown to be a less than stellar coach?

HE IS WHO WE THOUGHT HE WAS.  He's a pretty good recruiter who's career highlights are assisting a legend win a lone NC, giving his nephew an undeserved schollie, beating KY in the NCAA tourney with a UAB team that couldn't miss for a game, getting Mizzou highly ranked in the regular season before tanking in rd 1 of the NCAAs.

Mike & BB are clones.  Both obviously know their sports, both have trouble adjusting to adversity, both would be fun to watch a game with, and both will eventually be ex UA coaches.

Laughable some of these choices! It's like here I a great coach come here and get fired

Why should a great coach worry about getting fired?  We've let a very mediocre coach stay on the payroll for 7 years.

Because we've fired/ran off mediocre coaches and great coaches. It's a job where careers go to die! Billy D ain't coming here unless we make him second highest paid coach in the SEC minimum. He's getting $6 Mil now! Why on earth would anyone think he would come to Arkansas?

I still went to football games when I knew coach B was gone, and will go to KY game even though I'm done with him. Been to 3 games this year and wanted him fired after year 5. MA had people booing him at Vandy game last year. Post a poll and see what you find. Even the most ardent MA supporters I know are losing faith.

"Throw the money" to a Home run hire like Chad Morris.

We are Arkansas. We can find a top notch top 5 coach in the country.

Ha ha. Epic.

True.
And sadly his seventh year team may not either.

I guess I want anyone who can recruit. Tired of elite talent telling Hogs to take a hike.

Lot of good mid major coaches out there.

Some people think we already have one of those.
