    Butler hiring former Ohio State coach Thad Matta to replace LaVall Jordan

    Hope so. He is one of the best coaches in Big 10 history. Amazing body of work.

    2022 NCAA Tournament Thread

    Kentucky was missing Derek Anderson and we cheated. Would have, could have, if simply means we did not win it. Still have hope that we will.

    Ben Johnson Reasonable Expectations

    Muss did a great job of getting better players and teaching really well. Minnesota did not hire him and we could discuss forever if they could have. He can get kids into Nevada and Arkansas that can not get into Minnesota. UVA faces this issue even more to the extreme but the culture and fit...

    Ben Johnson Reasonable Expectations

    UVA JUST WON THE ACC LAST YEAR ! A culture that Ben believes in allows for tough seasons. He will not out recruit elite programs so you have to do it another way. High character, better scouting, better development. UVA identified those nba guys way before they were ranked that high. None were...

    Does Ben want both of these guys ? Very little improvement in their games. Does not mean that i think they would not be helpful. They are very finesse type players so far.

    And that Walton money.

    True but for having all new guys playing together i thought ball security and movement was much better. There was a noticeable jump in adhering to fundamentals to my eye.

    That half was truly horrible defense by Arkansas.

    We were poor defensively no doubt. Turnovers were much better. Pitino had guys that had played together. I do not have to rip on Pitino, his record tells the story off and on the court.

    If Eric Musselman was our coach

    Disagree. No big deal. I will wager a large sum of money that he never has the job here. What strong ties ? His father cheated here. Plus he has a better job .

    Understood. Ben had a few months to get his guys. Richard had 8 years and had bad characters, bad defense, no identity. If by the end of year 3 we do not see better defense and a near .500 conference record then we have a problem. We had decades of poor fundamentals, bad characters. I already...

    Ben Johnson Reasonable Expectations

    Just my opinion based on how i have seen other mediocre programs built to sustainability success. Elite success. UW failed miserably forever until they finally hired the right AD to hire the right coaches. Other programs that could not compete with the brand schools in recruiting found another...

    Ben Johnson Reasonable Expectations

    This staff does not need a bunch of guys returning to continue the growth of the culture and the building of the foundation. They have a much earlier start in the continued relation ship building. They already stand for something that was never done before. That high character and hard work is a...

    UW lost Davis to a earlier injury, still won the Big 10. I DID NOT MENTION THEM SPECIFICALLY. All programs lose players for injuries and other circumstances. They have developed players better than we have. Pitino was a terrible coach. Pull his record in the conference, pull it against top 25...
