Tubby Smith Moves Onto Minnesotta

http://sports.yahoo.com/ncaab/news?slug=ap-minnesota-smith&prov=ap&type=lgns

Long time head basketball coach at Kentucky, Tubby Smith, has decided to take over in Minnesotta. Tubby spent 10 seasons with the Wildcats, never missing an NCAA tournament, winning 5 SEC championships, and 1 national title. Smith said he decided to move on because he needed a new challenge. Well he got one. The Golden Gophers went 9-22 last season with only 3 wins in the overrated Big X
