In my opinion and many others the search firm is a quiet way to look at plan B candidates if Billy doesn't take the job. I believe Barnhart is 90% sure at least of who the new coach will be. I don't believe we started looking the day Tubby left. I think this process started long ago. The search firm we hired is the same search firm that contacted Minnesota 6-7 weeks ago about Tubby. Had Mitch had no knowledge Tubby was leaving until it happened I don't believe he would be happy at all. Basically what I'm saying is I don't believe Mitch would hire the same firm that placed Tubby at another school without his knowledge. I believe Mitch knew about this long ago. This is just my humble opinion.
