I?m just wondering why your well connected friends didn?t call you before they hired VT?s coach?
Since they let you know they were considering Kim and the coach from Transylvania.
I mean surely they knew you were very interested in what was going to happen with the woman?s job at UK, because you were keep a whole fanbase informed.

On another note, I?m extremely proud of Kim and our team. As far as Kim being a hot commodity she probably is in some respect. She has said publicly on two occasions that Marshall is her ?Dream? job.
I think some of us fail to realize that Kim runs that intense press, similar to Huggins ?Press Virginia? years. Our league hadn?t faced that style much.
Virginia Tech was beat by Florida Gulf Coast that pressed them and they had almost 3 weeks to prepare for our press and experience against the press and I?m sure all the interested ADs saw what happened.
A press like we run is sort of like the triple option in football. It works and Navy and Georgia Tech have beat the who?s who of college football with it. It?s a system that basically wins by out working , wearing the opponent down and having more heart than your opponent. It makes up for a lack of size and it doesn?t take elite skill to make it work. I think the more our league sees it the harder it will be to win, but each and every game is a fight so we always have a chance on any given night.
I don?t think the elite woman?s programs are necessary looking to run a press system, because when you play in a conference with elite guards they break the press down and find open players. I think it?s regarded as a mid major system, but I could be wrong.
