re: Did we dodge a bullet by not landing Greg Marshall?

Think about Marshall. He wins 20 or 30 games in a weak conference, comes into the NCAA tourney red hot and his players are all fresh and injury free from not playing anyone. Then they win a game or two maybe even more in the NCAA tourney and then fall short of a title. Another example is Anthony Grant. He took VCU to the tourney and beat Duke. He moved up to Alabama and was nothing more than an NIT coach. Obviously Marshall is better than Grant, but if u put Marshall at Bama, it wouldn't surprise me if was on the bubble every year and only made it in about every 2-3 years
