Coaching in the NBA vs college are two totally different things. Saunders has NBA head coaching experience basically for the same reasons that the last two Gophers head coaches got their jobs. All 3 had little to do with their resumes.
The Minnesota homers need to stop throwing Saunders name...
There’s plenty of local media complaining about it too.
But the media is made up of a bunch of mindless hacks who know very little about Gopher basketball anyways.
Here's a name that I haven't heard mentioned but I would be very interested in:
Alan Huss
From the KC area, played under Altman at Creighton, was an assistant under McDermott at Creighton. He took over a bad High Point team and has 2 conference championships in 2 seasons there.
Edit: I also...
We already went through a bridge QB. Stop with this nonsense about throwing the first 6-10 games away. Bo Nix went to the playoffs last year. Jayden Daniel’s went to the NFC championship game.
Stop with all of this worrying about JJ McCarthy.
