What happens to Chris Mack if X loses tomorrow? I'm just pointing out the trend on the board here. The problem with the NCAA tournament is that you have the best 68 teams in the nation playing 67 games... and EVERYONE goes home a loser except one team. If you're going to base your decision for a new coach on one game, the odds are incredibly high that that game will be their final loss. In that case, you have to judge the team/coach/performance on who they played, how they played and what their overall standing was going into the game/tournament. Any other evaluation will, by definition and design, be suspect. ALASKA HOOSIER, thebigweave and Kepner 3 Quote

Popular Post tyappleg Posted March 25, 2017 Popular Post Posted March 25, 2017 Has Bennett ever made Elite 8 or Final Four? If not, he is no better than Crean who got to Final Four with MarquetteSent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile appHe made the Elite 8 last year. He's won the ACC twice at VIRGINIA. He's had a lot of success in the toughest conference at a school that has very little history of success. He had a down year this year and that was a 5-seed in the tournament. Is he Billy Donovan? No... nobody is. But out of the available coaches looking to make a move, he may be the best option available, and is a definite upgrade over Crean.

Maynard Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 I posted this earlier. I like to try to quantify things with statistical analysis. These are the rankings of coaches over the last 7 years. I used SOS, win%, Pt Differential, and then added a tournament accomplishment component, double weighting tourney results. I tried to make it out of 100, and when I ran the 1976 perfect season through the metric it scored a 100.28. What the hell else am I going to do while I am waiting for more information on the coaching search? 513HoosierJS, schoosier and ALASKA HOOSIER 3 Quote

LamarCheeks Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 I remember a few years back, hearing Tim Kurkjian (ESPN baseball guy) talk about how he once got burned by an anonymous source. He said that after that, his rule was this: I will grant you anonymity, but if you're wrong, I will reveal that you were the source of my reporting. ... I definitely wouldn't consider ESPN the bastion for good, ethical, accurate reporting, but in this case, I think Kurkjian has it right. ... I did not see one credible, legitimate source saying Donovan had been in Bloomington. That's why I wasn't buying into it. Once the Thunder beat writer and Andy Katz (though I am not a big fan of his) refuted it, I had a pretty good inkling it was false. ALASKA HOOSIER, FortWayneHoosier and Tom White 3 Quote

LamarCheeks Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 Funny how in less than 2-3 hours, we went from having Billy Donovan in the bag, to being a team nobody wants to coach! Just saw an interview with ESPN's Jeff Goodman in which he said he believes Alford when he says he's not coming to B-town. When asked about candidates, he said there's a faction at IU that wants MIke Woodson. I guess that could be accurate. I'm guessing Woodson and his family and maybe some IU players from his era would want that, so I suppose that is a "faction." But I'm not sure anybody wants that. And now, it's being made to look as if Alford is spurning IU when as far as I know, a huge portion of the fan base had serious reservations about him -- and we're not sure if Glass even considered him a candidate in the first place. Goodman also said Archie Miller and Chris Mack might be in the mix, but he's not sure they would take the job. He sure did a good job of making us look bad. bnkepner and ALASKA HOOSIER 2 Quote
