Press Conference at 3:30pm ET

Why did he talk to Hewitt??!!!!

 

[okiemon]

He's saying the right things so far (except for the "I talked to Hewitt" bit).

 

[Enuratique]

Not going to happen overnight?!?!?! FIRE HIS ***! /s

If we are "the city's team," then somebody needs to tell that to the media in Atlanta.

He obviously hasn't met the AJC yet.

 

[Supersizethatorder-mutt]

He obviously hasn't met the AJC yet.

Or any of the yokels on talk radio in Atlanta

 

[Supersizethatorder-mutt]

Wonder if anybody has told him that the games themselves are not always broadcast on Atlanta stations.

 

[SwarmArmy]

"It's gonna happen over night" x10000

 

[jeffgt14]

If I have to hear it called the NC2A for the next 6 years I might call for his resignation.

LOL

 

[forensicbuzz]

LOL. Someone needed to have scripted him. And he needs to stop playing the drums.

 

[travgt01]

They need to learn to repeat the question.

 

[forensicbuzz]

As I see it, there may be 3-4 spots still open for next year (not including the 3 already filled). He has room to bring in other kids.

 

[gtg771r]

I kind of like him. Great energy. Maybe he learned something from his time at Memphis.

I have the same feeling, but feelings don't always last. I just hope he has been instructed, if he didn't already know it, NEVER to say Georgia Tech University. If he says that, then I'm out.

 

[Eli]

He may not be a bad hire. He had some good seasons while at Memphis then for whatever reason got worse...Memphis is a **** hole school

Screw both those entities.

 

[okiemon]

MBob is at least answering those who say this was a desperation, last-minute hire by saying he interviewed him at the Final 4 in Houston. Of course, we'll never know if that's true or not.

 

[Supersizethatorder-mutt]

Screw both those entities.

I agree, but that doesn't mean it's acceptable.
