Good for Shaka. I don't have any hate for this guy and don't understand why anyone would. He couldn't coach this team very well, but unlike some of our uh, other coaches in other sports, wasn't an egotistical dick. I really did feel sorry for the guy. I think he knew he was over his head a bit - he certainly got a lot less out front through the years, but maintained his upbeat nature without sounding too plastic. Even in this transfer, rather than let UT hang out on its own payoff noose, he did the right thing and sought another job when the plane was near the mountain.
I truly wish him good luck and for the first time in awhile, am really sorry that it didn't work out here. He's a better guy than what happened here.
Chris Beard would be the best basketball coach, by far, not even close, if he's hired.
That's all I got.
