What the hell. It isn't happening, but we toss out names like confetti for Mack's job, so why not?
Tad Boyle? Not exactly young, but impressive resume for a guy who started late. Definitely gets a lot out of his team.
I know a lot of people were lusting after Stevens, but I don't know about him sometimes. He doesn't really strike me as an offensive guru, and I'm certain he has no interest in leaving the Indianapolis area unless the perfect, perfect job is available.
Shaka Smart? Shaves his head for the streamlined effect to emphasize the speed at which his teams play.
Greg Marshall? Again, not really a young guy.
Randle's AAU coach? Mudiay's?
F it. Give Self 10 million a year. 20 if you have to. 30 if he's a hard bargainer.

Shaka would be interesting. He isn't old and white, so it will not happen.

Play
Hilarious Buzz Williams Celebration Dance:...

After an emphatic dunk by Darius Johnson-Odom, Marquette's Buzz Williams throws down some slick jiggy dance moves on the sideline, lol.

Barnes is just doing a solid for Mack and taking some if the heat off him. Spread it around. Also, we feel good about ten schools in our league.

Deloss will likely give pay raises to Barnes and entire staff.

My only acceptable choices are Coach K, Izzo, Calipari, Roy Williams, or Phil Jackson. Throw 10 years, $100 million at them and watch what happens. Anything less is settling.

I think it is a pretty good bet that Marquette will beat Mississippi State. Texas will have to beat USC, which lost by 30 to Illinois. It's kind of hard to call that one, considering what we saw last night.

Bierce, what are your thoughts on Anthony Grant? Not a ton of skins on the wall, but he's had success and can obviously recruit.

Here is the same conversation 8 months ago for some name ideas.

Who would be on UT Basketball coaching short list

If Texas was to let go of Barnes? Who would you guys like to see get a call? Mike Anderson (Arkansas) would be one for me because of d

real question: is there really a such thing as 'Texas ties' in basketball? Seems more like Texas AAU ties?

Stevens would be a no.
No way Texas hires Buzz Williams. Not with our current AD.
Shaka Smart is an interesting candidate.
