Tubby's getting his a$$ handed to him at Texas Tech, so I'm not sure why this is even still part of the discussion:

As someone who criticized this board last spring for the mad love Pitino was given after an 8-10 B1G season, it's equally ridiculous to question whether he's the right coach this early. He probably overachieved a little last year, and is underachieving a little bit right now. Other than Maryland, 5 of our B1G losses have been by 5 points or less. If we were losing these games by 15-20 points it would be more of a cause for concern. Our next 4 games are all winnable (ILL, @PSU, Neb, Purdue), so let's see how the team responds.
We haven't been helped out by the departures of McNeil, Martin, and the other transfer that was kicked off the team. That's 0-3 and some of the blame falls on Pitino. If we had 1-2 more players to add depth, shooting, an defense we probably have 1-2 more wins this year.
We are also going to feel the repercussions of failing to land any of the Big 3 plus JP last year for a while. It will take some time to recover from that. Our recruiting in Minnesota has to improve for us to take the next step. Jarvis and Hurt will help, Coffey and Trent would be huge.
