I may not like his persona but he can coach the hell out of a team. That was the best win I have seen so far in the tourney based on coaching. Sent from my LGLS676 using BtownBanners mobile app Agreed. Im not the HUGEST fan of his persona but goddamn he can coach. Napleshoosier and Deserthoozier 2 Quote
Yogi's Picnic Basket Posted March 18, 2017 Posted March 18, 2017 Archie coached a heck of a game too. Those two got played by the NCAA for having to play the first game against each other. WSU should have been at least a 5 or 6 seed. Nothing changes for me on Archie. 1. Stevens2. Donovan3. Bennett4. Sean Miller5. Archie/Marshall6. Mike White7. Alford/Enfield/Collins8.

As I've said a few times, he is an absolutely undeniable upgrade over Crean and it's not a comparison. The floor would be higher, I'm just not sure how high the ceiling would be. 8bucks and Milldawg12 2 Quote

8bucks Posted March 18, 2017 Posted March 18, 2017 I don't get it either. I guess some think he's on the older side, or the Canada thing? If can't imagine anyone not supporting his coaching. Like you, I don't think he's on the Donovan/Stephens level, but he's as good as anyone else we're discussing after that. After having Crean, who was somewhat quirky, people "think" Marshall is his clone. I have even heard some argue his results are a clone of Creans because he lost early as a #1 seed. He would be a great hire, after BS and BD and someday if he gets a chance at a bigger program may prove to be even better BGleas 1 Quote

Trish Posted March 18, 2017 Posted March 18, 2017 Do you know the whole story with this?I do not. But getting suspended on a road trip game in Canada is enough for me to say NO. Congrats for him for winning a lot.. but why does Indiana have to be his first REAL test? I thought this was Indiana? We need a home run hire.
