[Observing]

And so did Tubby smith, until they hired that drunken fool...

IMO, Tubby Smith in Minnesota is comparable to when we had Rich Rooks; was he ever going to win a National Title? No....How about an SEC title? Probably not, but the fans were content with going to a bowl game every year even if we only had 7 or 8 wins. Same for Tubby in Minnesota. I wish him the best.

Besides, why does Observing even care? He is coaching somewhere else that isn't even in the SEC.......pointless....

Tubby SMith didn't leave the program in great shape. He left it in a
SHAMBLES. Recruiting was bust, fans were accepting that we would
sneak into the NCAA and be a first round victim. ANd he elft the program
in such poor shape that a losing season was all but a certainty.
Blast Gillispie all you want, at least he WAS able to get Patterson
to go ahead and sign(which he wouldn't go ahead and do for Tubby).
And he got some mileage out of Bradley and Crawford hsi first
season. He was a disaster, but an 11th year of Tubby would have
been WORSE.
