My buddy, who works for ESPN says...

[Jason]

Everyone at ESPN is hearing Buzz to OU.

But, he also says that they all agree there are way too many coaching moves that need to happen before anyone can discuss who the next coach at OU will be.

In essence, I have no update for you, except that you all need to be patient.

What does a soccer/hockey fan know about basketball

 

[Jason]

You are both spot on.

 

[Bk2X]

ESPN probably reading our board for their information anyways...

 

[velvetj]

Why does our job have to wait on others? What coaching moves need to happen first?

 

[boksooner]

Maybe Arkansas. Maybe.

Tennesse opening up scares me if they want him. They can pay and I think they are # 3 or 4 in attendance in Men's basketball. Might be the 2nd best job in the SEC.

 

[coolm]

just like Georgia coaches are well aware how crappy the Men's bball job is at Tennessee.

it's NOT a pearl (pun intended)

Good question. I'll ask him, and get back to you.

Well they put 19,000 in the seats every game.

actually, if you go back and follow their attendance Bruce Pearl was putting those butts in the stands. They DID get a boost from women's basketball too - but Pearl drew a nice crowd.

Agree Pearl put them in the seats, but based on that someone else can too.
Thus the job is a good one.

Wrong buddy money drives everything.

I love Bruce Pearl..I live in Tn and NEVER have cheered for a UT team because I am a true OU fan...but when they hired Pearl, I liked him and started cheering for them... He puts people in the stands...he is a motivator...he is passinate...and I love him...he lied...the pressure to win got to him...I would love to have him but I know he couldn't be trusted...No one good will go to UT...to many sanctions against them in FB and MBB.

 

[dubyac]

the guys on the animal earlier were talking up dana altman(my sleeper candidate by the way) and they talked about how he has a number of connections in the OU athletic dept... and would be a very popular choice in that regard... besides stoops, who else does he have connections with??? mossman maybe??

 

[sooner8]

My buddy says"Buzz could be light years away"No one has any idea right now of who OU will hire,It is totally maddening!!Let Joe C.work his black magic & see what happens.Go Sooners!!!!!!!!
