    Couldn't Matt Doherty Find a Better Gig?

    Matt Doherty is coaching at Florida Atlantic. How does this happen? Your a former assistant at Kansas. A former head coach at Notre Dame and North Carolina. Although you get ran from your alma mater. You get to watch some of your recruits win a NCAA Title this past season. Then you watch Felton, May, and McCants all go in the first round of the NBA Draft.

    I thought this guy had some mental health issues? Maybe scared some bigger programs from giving him a shot?

    he should be lucky to even have that job, after being damaged goods when he coached at UNC.

    He also wanted Dean Smith's office to be moved way down the hall (so he wouldn't be close) and was, I've heard, rather cold and/or abrasive to the media, boosters, etc.

    I don't know how overrated you can be when your at Florida Atlantic. As for Quin Snyder, he could be on the hot seat.

    This may be it for Quinn Snyder if he doesn't produce this year.

    Kind of weird both Missouri football and basketball coach are on the hot seat...both programs had very high expectations that just never seem to materialize.
