Scooter D Posted March 26, 2017 Posted March 26, 2017 So...we have to give this guy 2, 3, 4, or 5 years to see the payoff with this hire (per Rabjohns)? Great. This is where we are at as a basketball school. Hardwood83 1 Quote

cljones1979 Posted March 26, 2017 Posted March 26, 2017 I think after 2 yrs we will see if it's going anywhere. As long as he doesn't have to rebuild if a bunch of players leave. He will be good. I didn't think so at first but after watching video and doing a little research I have came aroundSent from my SM-G935V using BtownBanners mobile app Quote

Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile appThat sounds fair to me. Crean got 9, but had to take 2-3 just to clean the program up and get it back on its feet. My first instinct, however, tells me the guy that coached Dayton to the elite 8, then to two tourney wins with no player over 6'6" (after he had a player die, two dismissed and a 4-star freshman miss 21 games) won't have that much trouble getting there. hoosierfan6157, thebigweave, Tom White and 4 others 7 Quote
TheWatShot Posted March 26, 2017 Posted March 26, 2017 Sampson and Davis both won 21 games with their first teams. I think Miller is definitely capable of that. thebigweave, Class of '66 Old Fart, Btownclouds and 4 others 7 Quote

Trish Posted March 26, 2017 Posted March 26, 2017 6 more years before you expect an Elite 8?? You're much more generous than I.We need to be there before then.

mdn82 Posted March 26, 2017 Posted March 26, 2017 Let's also be real about this. He needs to win. No doubt. He needs to win consistently. I highly doubt if he doesn't go to an elite 8 by year two we fire him. Conversely, I doubt that we extend him after year two if we make an elite 8. On a 7 year deal any coach is essentially getting 4 years to show his worth. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app hoosierfan6157, LockdownD and Alford Bailey 3 Quote
