Was he recruiting him? If so, tell us the reason.

Sloan's best SEC finish was 4th. I'm sure the other 3 programs were all-time great coaches as well.

What powerhouse was in Iona, John Hopkins, or Bucknell's conference stopping Valvano?

I'd take Dino Gaudio over Purnell. If we're gonna lose in the first round we might as well do it in style.

No

You are incompetent because

1. You are doing an absolute shit job of making any semblance of a rational argument
2. You cannot comprehend that this isn't about differing opinions, despite my explaining this multiple times.

Dude all you're doing is saying all the points of my argument are stupid.

To re-iterate, my points all along:

Marshall has improved programs every years he's been at them.

Multiple NCAA appearances, one win. But he was 14+ seeded at the time. I argue that it's harder to win seeded that low. I argue that you have to take that into context when you judge his tourney appearance.

MUCH longer track record than Shaka.

Shaka has gotten hot, other than that he's done jack shit.

Past performance does not dictate future results.

Marshall's history indicates he could get us back to respectability better than Shaka.

Those are my points, which I've re-iterated over and over again. Some people find them good points, some don't.

Your response is just variations of "OMG THAT'S THE DUMBEST SHIT I'VE EVER HEARD"

Florida also had never been at all successful in basketball before Sloan's final few years at Florida. Even then, Sloan probably wouldn't have been hired if I had to guess if he didn't have ties to the school (since he played there).

Valvano took Iona to the twice NCAA tourney (first was his 4th year there) and won a game(5th year). Also had players drafted into the NBA.

The kind of people who like Marshall are the kind of people who invest their money in CDs. No risk of losing, but no risk of making any big money with it. They are just complete losers who have an inability to weigh risk and reward. In fact, this is even worse that someone who takes on too much risk because there is zero chance you will just get lucky and hit the jackpot.

If your goal is to win the fucking national championship, you either pay a lot of money and get a low risk A-lister or you can get a high-risk B lister. There are no other options. You either pay in upfront price or pay in risk. If you aren't paying either of those costs, you aren't getting a national championship coach. It's the same as any financial investment.

If a B-lister is low risk, that means he does not have the potential to win a national championship. If he did, he wouldn't be a B-lister. Marshall is a low risk B-lister who gives us zero chance of winning a national championship. He is sendek, hamilton, purnell, etc. All are decent coaches who will improve a team, but they will never ever field a team that has a shot at winning the title.

Making that kind of hire is not the purpose of this search. History shows that at Marshall's point in his career, the vast majority of national championship coaches had already made deep runs in the tourney. That's overachievement on a big scale. Marshall's overachievements happen on a small scale.

Getting excited about Marshall is like getting excited about 2% interest.

That's a really good point. I agree that Marshall probably would do no better than Sendek. But maybe State needs to take the low-risk path to becoming respectable again instead of taking a huge gamble and possibly being 5-11 for the next five years. Just seems to me like with every hire we're basically doubling down to try and cover previous losses.

you're either gonna take a risk and give yourself a chance to be great, or you're gonna play it safe and just be okay.

you can't be scared to take chances if you're ever going to amount to anything.

This is what I love about the Internet. Hyperbole abounds. I hope someday you can recover from reading people argue on a message board.

And no, never worked at G105, not even close to the industry I work in.

Quote :
"RALEIGH -- With a new rumor surfacing each day about the latest coach to turn down the N.C. State job, an N.C. State official made the first public comments about the search for the Wolfpack's next basketball coach Thursday.

Associate athletic director Chris Kingston sent an email to The News & Observer, The Charlotte Observer and other media outlets Thursday which clarified the progress of the search.

Kingston, who is on athletic director Debbie Yow's four-person search committee, wrote that there has been "strong interest" in the job and "conversations" about filling the vacancy.

"As those conversations have occurred, coaches have naturally inquired about the potential compensation commitment of State, as would occur in any type of job search," Kingston wrote.

Earlier Thursday, Seth Davis of Sports Illustrated and CBS reported that Memphis coach Josh Pastner had turned down an offer from N.C. State. In a brief interview Thursday, Kingston said he wasn't responding to any specific report.

On Monday, Jeff Goodman of Fox Sports reported that the N.C. State athletic director had been "given the Heisman" by several candidates.

In his email, Kingston said there was a difference between an official job offer from N.C. State and preliminary conversations.

"Responding to those compensation questions is not the equivalent of 'offering the job' to anyone," Kingston wrote. "Instead, it is simply sharing information that reflects the commitment of State to the men's basketball program."

Yow is in Houston for the Final Four. Virginia Commonwealth coach Shaka Smart, Wichita State coach Gregg Marshall and Cincinnati's Mick Cronin are believed to be among Yow's top targets.

When Sidney Lowe resigned on March 15, Yow said she wanted an experienced college coach who has taken a program to the NCAA tournament. Smart's team plays Butler in the Final Four on Saturday, and Marshall took Winthrop to the NCAA tournament seven times in nine years before jumping to Wichita State in 2007.

Cronin took Cincinnati to the NCAA tournament this season, his fifth with the Bearcats, and Murray State twice in a three-year span in his previous coaching stop."
