@RandallParmley If he did well against the top SEC teams, could probably make a case for it — PolitiTweet.org

@kyhighs Useless information alert: I was a staff reporter at the Winchester Sun for nine months. So was my wife. Between the two of us, we made less than $40k, there was mice in our duplex, and our boss was a complete weirdo. All of this having been said, go GRC Cardinals! — PolitiTweet.org

@RandallParmley You never know with QBs, but that's not too bad for them, right? He's pretty good — PolitiTweet.org

@low_madness I had never noticed that logo before ... kinda cool, right? Also, Johnson City is a really nice place, my in-laws are near there — PolitiTweet.org

@LBuckingham Gotta be Trouble, yes? — PolitiTweet.org

@heybanner @ColeClaybourn Not saying he's a dolt, or anything. If he wants to continue coaching, maybe a fit. In my day, he was a really popular figure on campus. (2/2) — PolitiTweet.org

John Martin @EVLIVjohnmartin

@heybanner @ColeClaybourn I've thought about it. It could work, depending on what Crean wants at this point in life. I think it's somewhat debatable how good a coach he is. Had D-Wade at Marquette; had really good IU teams but couldn't get passed Sweet 16; flamed out entirely at Georgia. (1/2) — PolitiTweet.org

Hey! A tasty new @Evansville Living has arrived. All sorts of cool stuff in it. 128 pages of local, local, local. #Evansville https://t.co/DKHV7QDEck — PolitiTweet.org

@AMFKristensen Does the transfer portal make fan bases, presidents, and ADs less patient with head coaches who are tasked with building/rebuilding programs? Also, on a scale of 1-10, how much do you miss seeing my smiling face around your office? — PolitiTweet.org

Beautiful. — PolitiTweet.org

@Super70sSports OMG, children could have seen that https://t.co/3Od5bcmGkx — PolitiTweet.org

In the next @Evansville Living we have perspective on this project from a Castle grad who’s making a name for himself in skateboarding out in SoCal. — PolitiTweet.org

@RandallParmley @ColeClaybourn @TheTowelRackWKU @hamiljc @CoachDaneFife Not* sure — PolitiTweet.org

John Martin @EVLIVjohnmartin

@RandallParmley @ColeClaybourn @TheTowelRackWKU @hamiljc @CoachDaneFife I’m sure he’s a good coach, but I’m. It sure WKU or its level-headed, reasonable fan base (hahahaha) would accept somebody who spent a quarter century in JuCo ball. D1 is an entirely different recruiting gave. — PolitiTweet.org

John Martin @EVLIVjohnmartin

@TheTowelRackWKU @RandallParmley @ColeClaybourn @hamiljc I’d talk to Horn if he was interested, but that doesn’t seem likely either. My prediction: WKU swings for the fences on bigger names (Mack, maybe Wade, others). If that doesn’t work, they pivot to a Power 5 assistant or a decent HC from a lower conf. There will be lots of names. — PolitiTweet.org

John Martin @EVLIVjohnmartin

@TheTowelRackWKU @RandallParmley @ColeClaybourn @hamiljc Whoever they hire will have question marks. No perfect candidate is out there. — PolitiTweet.org

John Martin @EVLIVjohnmartin

@TheTowelRackWKU @ColeClaybourn @RandallParmley @hamiljc Oh, I see. So I assume you led a protest march against Petrino? 😄 https://t.co/eQ6R6XrrdZ — PolitiTweet.org

John Martin @EVLIVjohnmartin

@RandallParmley @ColeClaybourn @hamiljc @TheTowelRackWKU And I’m saying the most important thing is how players view these guys, not necessarily how you or I do. Again: I don’t think Kermit is likely, just that I wouldn’t automatically rule him out. — PolitiTweet.org

John Martin @EVLIVjohnmartin

@ColeClaybourn @RandallParmley @hamiljc @TheTowelRackWKU Also at MTSU he made three NCAAs and two NITs. They did show patience with him, yes. But he rewarded them for it. MTSU was a really, really good program multiple years. — PolitiTweet.org

John Martin @EVLIVjohnmartin

@RandallParmley @ColeClaybourn @hamiljc @TheTowelRackWKU Many people (with some justification) felt Horn was an arrogant jerk. The coaching profession is filled with them. Some on here are discussing Will Wade, for heaven’s sake. — PolitiTweet.org

John Martin @EVLIVjohnmartin

@RandallParmley @hamiljc @TheTowelRackWKU Why? — PolitiTweet.org

John Martin @EVLIVjohnmartin

@ColeClaybourn @robinsonandrew I had the same thought Andrew did, about comparing it to Petrino. WKU boosters are wealthy and want to win, I mean really, really want to win. If they feel Will Wade is in play and the best choice … let’s just say nothing would surprise me. — PolitiTweet.org

John Martin @EVLIVjohnmartin

@hamiljc @TheTowelRackWKU Probably won’t happen, but a legitimate name. Hilarious that some are saying “never Kermit” but all of the sudden they’ve decided they like Horn again a few years after hating the guy. 🤣 — PolitiTweet.org

John Martin @EVLIVjohnmartin

Stansbury would be owed a $500k buyout; could #WKU do that AND piece together a competitive package for the new coach they want? What an unholy mess they’re gotten themselves into. — PolitiTweet.org

John Martin @EVLIVjohnmartin

I think “Western Kentucky” will be an addition to this list soon. — PolitiTweet.org

John Martin @EVLIVjohnmartin

@RandallParmley Todd Franklin is an interesting name, I honestly had no thought of him. I seriously doubt he’d be the hire, but WKU could do worse. — PolitiTweet.org

John Martin @EVLIVjohnmartin

@RandallParmley Garbage performance tonight. His fate is sealed, I’d say. — PolitiTweet.org

Guys look as though they’re ready for the season to be done. #WKU — PolitiTweet.org
