I know you're out there. Most of you guys said this was a no brainer. So Is this hire a huge mistake?

I love Marshall. Didn't think Martin was 'available'. Right now, this is a better hire.

I am a Marshall guy. However, if you had asked me to choose between the two the day Horn was fired, I would have said Martin.
Anyhoo, I'll be ecstatic with this hire.

I wanted Marshall and still think he would have been a good choice. But I am very happy with the hire of Frank Martin. Hope Martin is VERY successful at USC, and stays a long time.

You do realize that the ncaa tourney is one of the more popular sporting events if not the most popular.

Things are rarely black or white....either or. Marshall would have been an excellent hire...so is Martin. I still would have preffered Marshall because of his local ties..but Martin maybe the best basketball hire we have made in 3 decades.

The NCAA tournament isn't an event, it is a series of events.

If you read the post it says sporting events meaning multiply. Not event as you point out.
