If Clark could coach she would've got a job at TN.Tech. She had 5 yrs as asst coach at MTSU where they had tremendous success. When the Tech job came open instead of making the choice to go with someone that had played at Tech and won alot there they didnt even give her a sniff. That says volumes.
As far as kids liking to play from Tom. Kids fly in from all over the country to play for him. Kalina Lewis who is the first or second ranked player in the 2012 class in the entire country flys in from CALIFORNIA to play for Tom. Ariel Massingill who is the 2nd or 3rd ranked PG in the country comes in from Illinois to play for Tom. These two kids are representing our country on the u17 USA Basketball. So if a kid in shelbyville doesnt respect Tom then maybe that kid cant play.
