Then why keep a coach that doesn't coach defense? Right? If this is "captain obvious" territory...why in the ever loving f*** would you pay a coach 2 million dollars to coach your team in a way that will never produce a championship? It makes no sense!

If you don't have a roster full of burger boys, you better coach defense first. Plain and simple. If you want to go deep in the tourney.

I heard he's setting up a visit to Nebraska.

You're going on the assumption that those rankings mean anything. They don't. If you want to better understand the talent level on this team, look at each player's offers list. Compare it to the area they live in and what regional P6 schools are on that offer list. If none of the successful...

Interesting. I just looked at his recruiting profile. I didn't see an offer from Indiana or Butler but Xavier and Nebraska was shown as having offered. Your point still stands. Not everyone.

The truth is, developmental coaching at this level, isn't nearly as important as whether or not the players will go into the gym on their own time and put in the right kind of work. Speraw can spend 60 minutes on correcting 1 player's shooting form but it won't make 1 bit of difference if that...

The fact is that Iowa doesn't want to compete in big boy basketball. They made that decision decades ago.

Some people will make excuses out of anything. Any opportunity. You're that guy.

Just stop. Did you see Keady's last 3 seasons @ Purdue? Not even Lickliter got to as few as 3 BIG wins in a season.

The difference is coaching and more specifically, defensive coaching.

No idea. I don't normally track that stuff. TT looked pretty locked in on defense last night.

That was the toughest choice in my entire bracket! I waffled and erased the winner of that game 3 times. I finally settled on Gonzaga. Which most likely means that I jinxed them and they'll lose.

We've had a lot of players transfer that didn't equal better production. I think Fran really has something he can sell to Cook/Moss in order for them to want to come back. A better, more experienced roster coming back next season.

Anything is possible but that would mean every D-1 coach in Kentucky and surrounding areas also slept on him. We'll have to wait and see.

Michigan's offensive philosophy didn't help them against TT.

Gutless Gary is the reason why I refused to renew my season tickets. Now you have proof. Hope that helps.

He won't.

I met Miles once in Indianapolis. One of the Gauntlet tournaments. Really nice guy.
