Barbee definitely excites me more than the others being mentioned

[DesMoinesHawki]

If we truly are looking at Utah's coach, and Tulsa's coach and Dayton's coach, I would have to say Barbee impresses me more than the three of these individuals ... I know we have slim pickings but I really like Barbee and the fact he knows how to recruit! ...

I'll have to agree.

He's been in my top 5 pretty much since Lick was let go.

I like this guy and thought there was some legs to it last night but then this...

Depressing!

Yup, i'm gonna have to agree as well.

Ditto, but apparently Barbee isn't anywhere on Barta's radar. I find that to be most depressing.

Very disappointing ... I think this guy would be a perfect match for the Hawks ... Perfect for what we need right now ... Bringing in mid-major coaches with sub-par records is not the answer. We just fired a mid-major coach and then you want to kick start the program by bringing in someone who has only been average at his school!?

I wouldn't read anything into that, other then the fact that people are still being interviewed and discretion is evidently the name of the game at this point.

What did you want him to say, yeah Barta interviewed him? I think that would upset Gary very much.
