Yeah I don't know how past success is some large indicator of who was available and interested in the job today. Not saying its a trash job, if you follow CBB Alford had a couple great teams, but different environment today. How often to coaches like Alford drop down to a mid major after P5...

care to elaborate or just grumble? I'd bet you follow mountain west hires a lot

Always so positive. You really think this was a bad hire for New Mexico? lol

This now saves us what, 1.75 mil? Could be huge towards beefing up the offer to the new coach.

Damn, pretty disappointed about this one. Great athlete with size

Surprised by that tbh. The avg shooting percentages of Pitino's tenure including this year are: FG-42.95% and 3P-33.4%. I'm sure its weighted for competition but our O is brutal in B1G play. For a measuring stick, the average 42.95% would be good for 231st best shooting percentage out of 340 D1...

Great post. I think they have the athleticism/ability to defend better, and i don't see how we could get much more inefficient on O than we already were. No reason we can't be a bubble team next year, plus we have the opportunity to add players in the offseason as well.

Could be wrong but is Baldwin on the hot seat? I mean even if he is maybe they would ride it out to see if they could get his kid. Would probably make them a conference favorite, but depends what the rest of the roster looks like too.

Facts are rude? Interesting take lol

Was Fleck a good recruiter/coach before the Cotton Bowl? yes or no? Ability isn't always directly reflected in results, same with everything in life. Reality check is that the guys on here everyone wants, myself included, won't come here. Sweet odds--chances we get Beilein, Matta, Musselman...

I'm not thrilled about Gates but once again, bad comparison comparing him to Pitino. If you just want to look at one portion of the resume you are less than thrilled about that is fine, but repeating the same point (minimal HC experience) isn't really making your case. PJ Fleck had a losing...

I'm not saying we should be, I'm making the point that his resume's and Pitino's are not that similar. Guy actually was a staple in a program that saw its stock rise while he was there with the HC. Pitino hopped around via connections/name, not results.

Not really, when have we had more than 1 guy who can handle the ball? We can actually go 8/9 deep, we just don't have any semblance of an offense, and play inconsistent D. PG: Carr/Mash-haven't had 2 PGs Pitinio's entire tenure SG: Kalscheur/Carr SF: Tre/Gach PF: Johnson/Ihnen C...

Coaching resumes below...Pitino skated around off of his dads success/name. Gates at least has some HC experience and more significant work as an asst imo.

How many games do you think this team was capable of winning if we had a coach who knew how to devise some sort of game plan and you know, coach? Not sure why its egregious to think we could have the same type of season next year with a new coach. We were way more capable than what we did this...

Sweet, so his biggest strength was doing what an RB on our team could do (David Cobb), but not as well. I will never understand the boner people have over Leidners toughness or rushing ability, he was miserable. If you want to factor in his rushing yards, he averaged 187.6 yards total, passing...

He rushed for 300 yards dude, that is legit 30 a game. He wasn't busting games open w/his legs, and if he did, consider it making up for sailing a throw on a slant. He legit averaged 3.4 ypc, not that awesome. He couldn't do the one thing we needed him to do, hit an open receiver to move the...

I wouldn't necessarily mind Dutcher, but he does kind of have a weird resume. Guy is 61 with 4 years of head coaching experience, while not having left Cali since arriving in '99. At the same time, he has won at Michigan and SDSU as associate head coach, and he's been under Steve Fischer who is...

What isn't correct? I said Gabe's FG% last year would have been McBrayers 2nd best shooting season, which is true. 44.8>37.6% (Gabes '19/'20 season)>32%/35.7%/35.1. We have the least amount of guys that can get to the rim as we have ever had this year. Gabe doesn't have the luxuries McBrayer had...

Its about winning it all, there is no denying that, but B1G has put multiple different teams in the final 4 as opposed to just FLA, UK, and then Auburn recently. The difference is that the SEC only goes 5/6 teams that are good tops, and the B1G goes 8 or more every year.
