8. Niko Medved, Minnesota​

Medved is a Minnesota native who kickstarted Drake’s current run in 2018 before spending the past seven seasons at Colorado State, making three tournament appearances in the past four years and winning this season’s Mountain West tournament. Before that, he took over a Furman program in 2013 with one winning finish in the previous six years and won a combined 42 games in his final two seasons. While Minnesota is one of the tougher jobs in the Big Ten, Medved has the coaching chops and rebuilding experience to steadily build the Golden Gophers into a winner.

Are you asking why I used a sinners and saints reference? If so, here is how to interpret that in reference to coaches. At some point, coaches lose (their sin) and sometimes they win (achieve sainthood). I used a circular reference to show that coaches become at different points in their career both a sinner and a saint. Is that too difficult?

Honestly, I don't think I could have worded my post any simpler. It's four words.

I study constantly—it’s practically a hobby at this point. Recently, I came across a paper on the Compositionality Hypothesis. To make my point, I’ll paraphrase one of the paragraphs: if you combine 200 nouns with 50 transitive verbs, you end up with a staggering variety of meanings—over 2 million potential ideas. But when I responded to your message, which was only four words long, I still couldn’t figure out what you were talking about.

It seemed like you assumed three things: first, that there was universally understood context (not true); second, that I had a receptive mind, with a history of grasping your ideas in the past (also not true); and third, that we both knew how to narrow down the overwhelming range of meanings to just a few relevant ones (this clearly failed). When I followed up for clarification and you refused to engage further, it left me with just one conclusion about your approach: not worth following through.
