Mark Turgeon - A Coaching Candidate? Or Not

A thread for @TheDMV to post about Mark Turgeon all he wants since he apparently can't not talk about him even though Turgeon won't be IU's next coach.

I’m going to submit my resume and cover letter this afternoon. Like my odds against Groce, Turgeon will be tough head to head though.

Can you start a separate thread for Brad Stevens while you're at it, seeing as both Brad and Turg have the same chance of coaching IU next year? Please and thanks.

Cult like followings on BTB: 

Stevens
McCollum
Turgeon

Personally don’t see how IU can go wrong with any of these three elite D1 coaches.

On a site with lots of bizarre conspiracy theories, this one has to be the weirdest. 

I'd say holding the flame for Turgeon on an IU board is pretty weird.

We could debate about what is "worse," but Turgeon's 17-14 season with 9-11 in conference, and the 19-13 season with 8-10 in conference aren't great, and right in line with Woody's worst year at IU, last year.

But others are correct; this thread is to debate IU coaching candidates, and Mark Turgeon is not an IU coaching candidate.

Nah, not really up for debate. His worst Pom year other than year 1 at MD was 52. MW  was 91 last year. Not even close. W-L record is much less predictive of coaching performance than analytics rating.

Is a cult of one possible? Turgeon train consists of only @TheDMV as far as I can tell.

Yes, W-L record is such an arbitrary metric to judge coaches on. Everyone knows the name of the game is efficiency. Lol

Why would you want to put your friend or client in a situation where they are clearly not wanted? If you think we're bad wait till you get the whole fanbase running him out of town.

Pretty weird how when someone says they have info Stevens with the Cs isn’t a candidate, everyone yells at them and defends this as an open forum to discuss candidates and believe whatever they want.

Maybe it is Mark Turgeon, resorting to message boards after his overture to IU turned into nothing.

ok you're blocked

A part of me desperately wanted IsaacTor to be telling the truth just so the John Groce and Mark Turgeon discourse would be put to an end

The game is winning and losing. But if we’re trying to predict future success, predictive analytics are unquestionably better.

Sorry bro, Mark isn’t as popular as Brad. You can’t sit at our table anymore.
