Athlon Sports ran a little article in which they discussed the top three replacements for major schools should their current coach leave for any reason. For example, in the case of Louisville they had Jay Wright, Tom Crean and Larry Eustachy as the top candidates should Pitino leave. For Kentucky they had 1) Tom Izzo, 2) Rick Barnes, and 3) Mark Few. Athlon also said: Being the boss at Kentucky is one of the most desirable - and difficult - jobs in the nation. It would take a lot to convince Izzo to leave East Lansing, but don't you think Barnes would love to get to a school where basketball was king?Izzo plays an uglier style than Tubby. Barnes or Few would be acceptable, I suppose, if Tubby were to leave. i always liked Bobby Gonzales but Mark Few would be the guy i want

Mark Few would be able to recruit better at UK. I think he would be an excellent choice. I still like Pitino, but Few would be at UK longer than Pitino. Based on the above, Few would be my choice.

If he were to make a name for himself at UMass, when the time comes, Travis Ford would get a TON of consideration.

Why not just take a clean Sutton back? Izzo Rick Barnes Williams (Roy and Gary) Matta Weber Self Ryan Keep ;D Why not Sutton? Simple, he brought shame and cheating to the program. Pitino had to clean up his mess and did a damn good job doing it. Thats why.

Tom Izzo just got blown away by Hawaii 84-62 last night.. That wont fly. But, he just got to the FF. Sometimes I get the impression that people woldn't care if Tubby lost every game until he won the SECT, so we could get to the NCAAs and then the final four. If Tubby lost every game, but the SECT games en route to the final four, it seems like some people would love it... because all that matters is the final four.

People remember championships, the final four is the last step to that game. Of course people remember final fours, WHY WOULDN"T THEY, just like in baseball people remember the team that won the World Series, in football it is the Super Bowl, or college the BCS as in NC, what are they supposed to remember, who finished sixth or seventh, or fifth?
I have no idea what you point was.
