  • I'd move Martin and Antigua up a tier each.

    There are plenty more candidates that I could see us ending up with that excite me less than the ones you mentioned.

    I feel confident any of your Tier 1 guys can be successful. I do think Martin could be considered a borderline Tier 1 as well. Not sure if he would have any interest but Scott Drew is another guy I would like for us to consider.

    We may as well take Smart off. It's not going to happen.

    I'd bump Capel to tier 3 and add Scott Drew to Tier 1 or 2.

  • I didn't include Drew because I am friends with his family and it would take a LOT to get him to Carolina. Baylor is going through this huge transformation right now and he is heavily involved.

    Antigua just doesn't excite me. I want someone who has been a head coach, who has built a program or multiple programs into NCAA contenders and one that has area/aau contacts and relationships.

  • The more I read about Antigua the more I like him. I would be happy with him and think in a few years he will be big time. Big risk big reward.

  • Hyman should have known a white boy named Darrin was tier 4 at best...
