The Earlier Discussion About Pearl v. Huggs...

[hatvol96]

got me to thinking. Whose resume does Bruce's most resemble? Any thoughts?

 

[allvol123]

I'll play. Cliff Ellis.

 

[GAVol]

He sort of reminds me of Bobby Cremins circa 1989.

In the ballpark. Of course, Ellis has won conference titles in two BCS conferences.

Tom Davis? A lot of good teams with no real success.

Another good call. I like this game.

Gottfried.

Very nice. The apple doesn't fall too far from the coaching tree. Davis did reach an Elite Eight at both BC and Iowa.

 

[BigPapaVol]

Quinn Snyder.

Gottfried.

Not really. Bruce doesn't have any losing records on his slate. That said, Gottfried did make an Elite Eight.

Wow. Why not just go all the way and say Kevin Mackey?

I was debating Pelphrey, Amaker and Ford.

Oh, I thought you were going for the "Certain to flameout due to off court behavior" call.

Honestly, that's how I settled on Snyder from the lust of young, with names but accomplished little crowd.

Both did achieve a #1 ranking relatively soon in their tenure but failed to break into the elite 8 or final four with the exception of one season for Gottfried. We'll see how Pearl's tenure plays out, but it's hard to not ever have a losing season.

For all the people crying about our lack of experience, how's Kansas doing?

Amaker is wretched. I sat on press row for the Penn-Harvard game last year at the Palestra. He's Wade Houston in a better suit.

A pg makes a huge difference, as does a defensive minded coach.

I don't think anyone's going to be clamoring to play Missouri in March, either.

I am still going with Tom Davis for now. I still think Pearl can get team to a final four.
