Jessy 0 Posted March 22, 2007 It'll be official tomorrow: Tubby Smith will be named Gophers men’s basketball coach, according to people close to the program. The university said this afternoon that it has called a news conference to announce the new coach Friday at noon. Smith is expected to arrive in the Twin Cities later today. Linky.

pimptastic69 0 Posted March 22, 2007 AS a UK alum ( undergrad ) YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS ! Kentucky Basketball will finally get back on track among the elite once agian ! Smith has led Kentucky to one National Championship in 1998, a perfect 16-0 regular season conference record in 2003, five SEC regular season championships (1998, 1999, 2001, 2003, 2005) and five SEC Tournament titles (1998, 1999, 2001, 2003, 2004), with six Sweet Sixteen finishes and three Elite Eight finishes (1999, 2003, 2005) in his nine seasons. He totaled 100 wins quicker than any other Wildcat coach except Hall of Famer Adolph Rupp, reaching the plateau in 130 games. His record sucked. I'm a UC fan, but have always held an admiration for Smith. You guys really treated him like crap. I'm glad he left on his terms and not on the "fans" terms. Good luck on trying to get Pat Riley or Rick Pitino, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
