SEC coaching shake up coming?

BTW, he went to the Elite Eight in 2019 but didn’t win the regular season or tournament….with PJ Washington, Tyler Herro, and Keldon Johnson. Rick tied him for 2nd and beat him in the conference tournament. So, yea, 6-7 years

Elite 8 is a successful year, man. IMO.
Especially since next year he won the regular season and who knows how he could have followed it up (or what might have happened Covid year/2020-21) if not for season cancelation/ all the pandemic mess.
So yeah, 3 years of completed seasons.
I'm going to watch the Houston game .

There is a different standard when you have 3 first round draft picks. I’ve said Barnes is a victim of his own success, but that point came out when people are complaining about a 22-5 season after an Elite Eight. Cal hasn’t been out of the first weekend since his Elite Eight in 2019. There would be chaos here if Barnes couldn’t replicate some of it in the next 5 seasons. I live outside Memphis and have seen him coach for years. Very good motivator…poor floor coach.

I don’t have a dog in this fight, but an Elite Eight appearance is by no means considered a successful year in Lexington.

Bro, I mentioned this several pages back. Their fans are delusional and think they should win a championship every year. Many are literally saying Pope has 3 years to get to a final four or they are done with his " experiment ".
An elite 8 in reality is pretty damn good.
You can't get there without having a pretty damn good team and coach.

Bro, we going back in circles now. I have already established he was having a great season in 2019- 2020 before the Pandemic screwed that season and the next season up.
If anyone has an ounce of honesty in them they will admit Cal's "underperforming" has just been a 3 year span full season wise.

No way. You can’t speculate an outcome, and the 2021 season still happened. It is what it is.

LoL But you can speculate he was going to necessarily underperform ?

2020- It WAS NOT A SEASON CAL UNDER PERFORMANED!!!!!!! He had 25 damn wins win the season was canceled. 25 wins! That is what it is!
Why is this so f'ing hard for anyone to get??
Were are/were talking about him underperforming in a given season. smdh.

2021 Was the Covid year. If you want to take the overwhelming anomaly in his whole career and use that, then knock yourself out ( it's dumb tho when you had top coaches like Pearl going 13-14 completely validating my original argument you may not even be aware of) but guess what, bro?
You still don’t get to 6-7 years, dude.

I tried to give you the benefit of the doubt, but you are indeed as thick in the head as the other guy.

I’m done. The facts are out there these past seasons. I’m really not because you can’t prove something that didn’t happen. Like I said, it is what it is. Fine, 5 seasons, including this year. No one can dispute he is the same coach as he previously was. Good night.

When the he// did I try to "prove something that didn't happen'? I haven't counted the 2020 season for anything and I've only said that about 10 times this thread.

Facts are he averaged 24 wins the last 3 ( more than that if you count 20') seasons not affected by a deadly virus that killed millions and millions world wide. Not bad regular season average in that time.
Where he really underperformed was in the post season NCAAT. I have ageed with this since the second this debate started. From word go.

The debate was that whilst Pearl had been consistently equaling and even exceeding (this decade) what he had done this past decade, Cal had not. This is completely false as I have laid out many times in this thread.

Where this relates to you is even if you use both the 20 and 21 season in your argument , Pearl DID NOT fair any better than Cal in either of those seasons. Certainly didn't " rival or exceed" what he did the past decade. Same for the last 3 years for Bruce Pearl.

I really wish people on this site would do a little more reading in the threads and little less just wanting to argue for the sake of f'ing arguing.

Lastly,
" no one can dispute he is the same coach he previously was".
No coach is the same coach they previously were unless they duplicate what they previously did.

Is Bruce Pearl the same coach as he was 15 years ago when he went to the Elite 8? 6 years ago when he went to the Final 4?
Last year when he got dealt with by mighty Yale and went out in the first game of the NCAAT?

What you said means absolutely nothing until their coaching careers are wrapped up.
Which is why I said go look at Rick Patino this year and him reviving ANOTHER program.

Good night to you bro, you probably should have stayed out this argument/debate/sh!t show
