Only thing I would say... he isn't facing the quality of talent/depth night in and night out.

Also, I used to coach high school football. We had a season where we were 0-8 and had another season where we were 9-2. That was my best and worst season and I can't honestly say I coached better one season than the other. I can tell you I had better players and the plays I called actually worked. One year I had a bunch of seniors that would run through a brick wall and the other year I had a senior class that I felt like I had to hit with a stick to get them to do anything. If anything, I may have actually worked harder the year we were 0-8 because everything was hard.

Then you should be f-hired.
Was that fired or hired?
We shall never know because on any given Monday!

Great job, coach. Given what you wrote, I am certain you are a great coach either winning or losing. Thank you for being part of the thankless profession, where administrative back slaps are the prelude to being pushed off the cliff and where the eulogy of your demise is interrupted by digging your grave into gold rich earth. If it weren't for you...

Good players make good coaches. In BB if your players can’t shoot your offensive plan is basically just scribbles on a white board!

Is Ben being bandied about for any of these P4 openings?

Albuquerque is nice (I've been there twice). Perhaps, Raleigh, NC Cincinnati, OH better.

With how flux the Mountain West is, perhaps the ACC is better. No guarantees there though either.

I meant Cincinnati, OH. I didn't realize Sean Miller was keen on Austin, TX.

I was never a RP fan for reasons mentioned here. But it seems as if he has matured as a HC and has earned some stripes. What can't a person like about that?
