[QUOTE="RamblinRed, post: 135118, member: 1776"] I'd rather have Gregory over Hewitt right now for the simple reason that we can get out and we have no big negatives that will keep coaches from considering us. With Hewitt we had the huge buyout that basically made it impossible (especially when you added in Gailey's buyout) of being able to offer any sort of competitve salary. We also had the issue that academics fell greatly in the 2nd half of Hewitt's regime. To the point where GT had lost 2 scholarships and was one bad semester away from losing more scholarships and being banned from post season play. You can't attract much with that hanging over you. With Gregory - you can see a team that with good coaching can win right away. You also have no restrictions from an academic standpoint (or from a GT standpoint - money) to stand in your way. We had to bite the bullet on Hewitt at some point to get out from the contract. Hiring assts wasn't going to make much of a difference at the end. DRad forced him to hire an asst his last year and it didn't matter. At that point Hewitt had become too insular and simply wasn't listening to anybody. [/QUOTE]
