Cignetti & May gonna win Nattys in year 2

[wmcovol]

Mich really spent big for their team. They were 8-24 two years ago.

Well, we could fire all our coaches and start that 2 year countdown, but with White making the hires, we'd have a royal fuster cluck. Our only hope is that ND or some other name program comes and steals Danny boy away. Until that day, we will continue to wander in the wilderness.

I’m not bitchin about our coaches. I just notice a definite difference in the comments after Cignetti won in 2 & nothing being said with May winning it after 2.

Michigan has been good at basketball before. IU at football? Not so much.

The common theme for both guys is an influx of money allowing Cignetti to assemble the team he wanted and May to assemble the team he wanted.

Both guys are competent, knowledgeable coaches who knew what they needed to win and they went out and got those players because they had the cash AND the right players were available for them.

For some programs the cash will probably always be available but the right players aren't always available. The "power schools" that have a good recruiting and portal classes year in and year out will still have the edge IMO.

This. UM has played for 3 titles in the last 12 years or so and been to ample F4’s under multiple coaches. IU was a doormat in football.
