Who thinks Izzo is a good coach? What about Brad Stevens? Roy Williams? They all went from assistant to HC. I want BD first and foremost, but if you can't get him I think you look hard at Fife. 

Roy is an exception I guess, but the other two were to programs that were nowhere in terms of basketball.  Those programs could afford to take a chance.

Im sure it has been seen but I have been at work all week so that means I havent been able to stalk this board like I would like. Mike Woodson reached out to IU saying he was a package deal with Larry Brown. IU isnt interested though but how the heck did those 2 end up campaigning for jobs together?

I was about to say this.

Besides, how many Izzo assistants could manage to not learn a thing from him aside from the one we can all name?  Let Fife show if he learned anything somewhere else, loved him as a player though.

I agree, his stint at IPFW was interesting. He was just turning the program around when he left. I sort of have the same thinking with hiring Marshall. Let him prove he can win in a real conference before considering him here. Winning in the post season is a plus, but everyone knows March Madness is a whole new season for EVERY team in it.

Some mention that Fife had a losing record at IPFW, which is true but he had a better record each year culminating in 18 wins.  I didn't think he did too bad being considering where he was at.

We won't agree on Marshall, so that's all there is.  Home run, no.  First choice, no.  I firmly believe he's an upgrade though.

I hope he is not considered here. But, in his defense he was the first division 1 coach at Ft. Wane, as well.

Exactly, he set the foundation of that program to where it is now IMO.

 

As for Marshall, he's a coaching upgrade yes. But in terms of potential of winning a national championship and recruiting top talent, I don't think he's the guy.

He meant 2113. It's Sean Miller III.

It's Sean Miller the IV because Sean Miller the III took over for Brad Stevens III at Boston.
