I like Fran. I think he's a player's coach and that's huge. He sticks up for his players, and he's outspoken about calling out cheating shit stains like Calipari and Pitino.
But...
If we're being honest, he's a carbon copy of Alford after 8 years.
--Alford was .589 overall and .477 in B1G
--Fran is .586 overall and .481 in B1G.
--Alford took 3 teams to the NIT and 3 teams to the NCAA, getting past the first round once and making the E8.
--After 8 years Fran has taken 3 teams to the NIT and made 2 NCAAs getting to the 2nd round twice (that play in game doesn't count; I don't give a F what anyone says). Alford didn't get that joke of a chance at a play-in, so regardless, it's getting wiped out for this.
I'm sorry, I know Alford was a dick and everyone hated him, but if the Hawks don't got to the dance and win a couple games (not gonna happen), he's officially worse than the 'Fraud and it's time to go. While I think Daddy Warbucks is untouchable on the football side of things, I don't think Fran has quite as much security. Either way, it's up to the donors, not, Farta.
Let's go donors...tell Gary where the bear shits.
