If that is true (I have no idea), that's a GOOD thing. Given that we, by all accounts, got at the worst a solid hire out of it, we absolutely SHOULD have started high and worked our way down. If Fischer had been our first choice, that means we had no ambition of going any higher. So I fail to see what the damage is from shooting for the moon in this search and ending up with a solid option after we put the work in to make sure that we couldn't do any better.

Great point. If the "no thanks" were coming from some of the more outlandish names being thrown around on here (Pitino, Hammon, etc) then at least Huge was aggressively trying to improve the program.
