Bruce Pearl is a better basketball coach than Kevin O'Neill

[HendersonVol]

Don Meyer isn't a good coach because he didn't ever coach D-1

I agree. Haha.

It's also ignoring fine citizens like Tony Passley, Ramar Smith, Duke Crews, and Josh Tabb that Pearl brought in all by his lonesome.

Again, can't really argue with that, but it worked out didn't it.

The most pointless post in a completely pointless thread.

If you consider getting one solid half season out of a guy you have for five semesters good, yes.

That tells me all I need to know about you right there, just in case I needed verification.

Be sure to tell Bobby Knight that and see his response.

I like winning games and advancing in tournaments.

Actually it's not. Big misses in recruiting/player's getting dismissed results in needing transfers which by your 6th year is not good.

Yeah, the fact the fool you guys contort to defend built everything he accomplished here on shifting ethical sand can't possibly be relevant.

Those transfers were terrible for us last year right? We were a Hopson free throw from a final 4.

We have been a point guard away for the last 4 years.

I'm not contorting anything. Pretty easy to look at raw wins and losses. The people propping up O'Neill are the ones using vague, created arguments to shoe how good he is.

I don't know Bruce. He may be unethical. It appears he has a little of that in him. It hasn't stopped you from propping up other coaches.

I will not argue for Bruce's pg recruiting. It's been atrocious. He still has managed unprecedented success.

We are a couple of Maymon free throws and Fields block from being over .500 in the SEC this year.

 

[SamRebel35]

we are a long drawn out investigation and 8 game suspension of our head coach from being over .500 in the sec this year.

I can tell you this much. When/if Bruce is fired; replacing him with Kevin O’Neill would be a monumental disappointment.

The record was better during the suspension than it was after Pearl returned.

O'neill is 2 games away from being .500 in his career. This probably isn't a road you want to go down.

I think Pearl has had a poor year coaching. I think O'Neill has had a poor career coaching.

You mean the kind of road that says Tony Jones is a better coach than Bruce Pearl? Numbers without context are fun.

Were we not two games over .500 in SEC play when the coach was suspended?

Obviously I think the data smooths out over 300 games or so.

You're obviously a racist. Your beloved raw numbers say Tony Jones is vastly superior to Bruce Pearl. Hell, they were coaching the exact same team and Jones outperformed him. Why you got to try to keep Jones down?
