GAST was over a barrel. Hunter was mad in October he wasn't offered an extension. Think the first glance he got from another program, he was gone. It just happened to be Tulane. Private university with deep pockets. Tulane could be the next Liberty, Wofford, Gonzaga, Butler, etc. Odds are, they won’t.
Lots has been said about Marlin and Broadhead getting raises/extensions. Hunter had already gotten one, was expecting a second. It's a tricky business, beyond my pay grade.
As big a critic as I am of Marlin and his refusal to bring decent teams in to play us, if he had had the level of success that Hunter had in conference and post season, I would not be calling for his firing.
That said, even with Hunter gone, Marlin is still an average coach and a below average judge of talent, especially as regards the translation of HS results to the upper mid-major level of competition. I dont expect results much different than he has had in the past.
