UK's Tubby Smith to coach the Minn Golphers

[ALostTexan]

Good move for Tubby. Going from a place that demands excellence to a program that demands nothing.

With no expectations, he can easily get away with a crappy record, but unfortunately, the name "Minnesota" will not get you an automatic berth into the NCAA tournament like "Kentucky" does.

I have liked Kentucky since the days of Jamal Mashburn (when I was a kid) and hope that they can get a big-name coach to come in. Anyone heard any speculation into who they are looking for?
