It is. You're presumably asking who is the best at drawing up little X's and O's on chalkboards and diagramming plays, which would be meaningful if that were a useful disembodied skill independent of the players involved. The problem is that the Xs and Os represent wildly varying players of vastly different skill levels, and selecting and recruiting those players is at least as important as what you do with them once you've got them. You could match the world chess champion against some random eighth-grader, and if the eighth grader has five queens then the champion's going to lose every time. Asking who the "best coach" is while ignoring roster-building is a meaningless question.

Haha seriously? Any grown man that gets a DUI is either:

A: A Drunk
B: A Moron
C: The Taint of Society
D: All of the Above (most likely answer)

The fact you keep trying to hammer that asinine point is mind-boggling.

Do you know how horrible your decision making has to be to actually drive drunk? We are talking about a 50 year old man here. What gives?

You do realize there are people who have received DUI's before who were just "tipsy?"

Do you realize how clueless you sound by saying the only thing to classify alcoholism or being a drunk is whether or not one has a DUI?

Not only did you throw that craziness out there, you've stuck around to defend it.

Not defending anyone.

Just making it known to the ignorant folks who want to call a coach a drunk when their own is not the Saint you all portray him to be.

I'm really surprised that some people feel Calipari can't coach beyond recruiting. His coaching style is designed for and requires having the best talent. It is part of why he gets the recruits he does. It is a deliberate method and he's good at coaching it.

Bruce is a great coach too. His style is exciting and he can take lesser talent and win ballgames. If he's able to have a couple consistent 3 point shooters and keep walk-ons off the court he is fully capable of making deep tournament runs. However, his style is very college-bound. This hurts the recruiting side of things for him.

Now it would be a valid argument to say that Bruce out-coaches Calipari head-to-head (I agree), Bruce's style is more in the spirit of college (I agree), or that just Bruce is a better coach. But saying Calipari just gets the talent and throws them out there is an insult to the teams/coaches his teams have beat.

I'll be the first one to call Bruce Pearl a dumb drain on society if he get's a DUI.

Yes, any grown man that gets a DUI in today's police society has some serious issues, and is most likely a drunk.

What would you call this?

It has taken you over 12 hours, but you finally realized how moronic it is to say to be a drunk you need a DUI. Or if you get a DUI you're a drunk.

Back on topic, before this thread is killed by one of Loftons deliberate derails.



Looks like Bruce is in the lead for now. I figured Stallings would have a few more votes right now.

How long is it going to take you to realize that these two things aren't the same. I said one of them, one you're imagining me saying.

You are the one saying anyone getting a DUI was most likely a drunk.

Yet when evidence is put in front of you that is not always the case, you still don't see the light.

Shocking that you don't let facts sway your opinion. Explains a lot for the love affair of Bruce.

So what's a guy that gets a speeding ticket? Runs a stop sign? PI? Reckless driving? etc. etc. etc?

Or what about the guy who is a bit tipsy and gives the keys to a friend who fails a sobriety test while driving his car?
