Stan Heath Fired...

[Dale]

LOL. Nice!

So, all resume's should come with family pictures?

Heath indicated ticket sales and lukewarm fan support might have played a role in his dismissal.

You think?


I'm SO glad they talked to Nolan too! Just when I've started to regain some of the respect I had for him he has to go open his mouth again!

I love what Vincent Hunter said, that he deserved more minutes and wouldn't miss Heath, just great stuff lol

wow. Where did he say that?


I hate to say this but Hunter did not deserve more minutes. Washington beat him out fair and square for those minutes. It's the main reason we made a run at the end.

Exactly right Charlie. (wow, two people agreeing on the board ;D) Hunter's "minutes" are in Washington's pocket no matter who's coaching.

Did Vincent Hunter really say that? Wow.

If Hunter said anything about Stan Heath, he is delusional. If anything, Heath bent over backwards trying to find a role for Hunter. The next coach should send Hunter packing and use the scholarship on someone who is capable of contributing.

In fact, the source said Gillispie would likely become Arkansas' replacement for Stan Heath, who was fired Monday by the university. If Gillispie didn't become the 14th basketball coach in Arkansas history, the source said Kansas' Bill Self and Southern California's Tim Floyd would be contacted next.



"For me, I really didn't play as much as I wanted to play," Hunter said. "I deserve more than zero minutes a game, you know. That kind of turned me off a little bit on Coach Heath. When I heard the news, I just thought that I didn't care if he got fired or not."
