holy crap!

his last two years there he was

08-09 27-8 with a first round NCAA win over Ohio St
09-10 27-7 with a first round loss vs Purdue

the last three years this is Siena's record

10-11 13-18
11-12 14-17
12-13 8-24

and in 07-08 he lead them to a record of 23-11 with another NCAA first round win v Vandy.

Proof that Fran can't really build a program. How good are they, really, if they can't sustain any success once he leaves.

Of course, if Basabe had went to Siena and Fran had continued to be the closer in terms of recruiting, those numbers might be different.

not sure how much better you can get as a MAAC team. 3 straight NCAA's with 2 wins. i'm sure Basabe would be just destroying people over there, but the ceiling is only so high in a conference like that.

and now they're looking for a new coach!

You cereal, or trying to be funny?

Edit: I guess I'm asking, because by your reasoning (if you're being serious), Todd Lickliter must be one HELLUVA program builder, considering how Butler was able to "sustain success" (to the tune of a couple Nat'l Title game appearances) after his departure

Can't blame Alford OR Lick on this one...
