Just throw the fricking bank at him.

Helps as reference point to see side by side.
For example Buzz is at the top of the list, compare, let the faggies have him.
I'm not 100% sold on Beard after seeing the refs win the game for him at home while ranked in the top 10 against this turrible team led by Mike Anderson.
Similar to how national media mentioning Mike Young should get an interview, the same Mike Yong and "only Wofford" who lost to Mike Anderson in the tourney a few years ago.

If it was a choice between Mike and the other coaches, sure but Mike isn't an option. The only reason to look at Mike is see if there were certain signs we missed and need to avoid.

Eh, the only thing that is lacking compared to the others is the win%. Best tournament coach besides Beard if purely looking at percentage.

We could nitpick like that for almost every coach. Not really a good idea to look at one game sample sizes either.

Agreed, Mike Young would be very underwhelming. Would not be happy about that hire at all.
Who is the best hire imo?

He's also the only one who took a clear down grade in jobs, but he's only message board fodder, what makes him so attractive to these posters I'll never fully understand. Same with Mic Cronin.

It relevant in that he allowed his team to play down, at home, to the level of a team that cost another coach his job or he was out coached head to head by Mike Anderson.
Its along the lines of the Ole Miss posters here circle jerking all over the board when they hired Nutt. Yeah he beat you every year, doesn't mean you stole a huge prize like you think.

What if the hire was sold as Sampson with his son Kellen as head coach in waiting? Short term with long term possibilities. Would Kellen take this position over replacing his dad as HC at Houston?
Things to ponder on.

If we are using that criteria let’s just hire Stansbury or Pastner and be done with it. Both of them beat Arkansas at Arkansas with bad teams so they must be better coaches than Mike

His current school has made the NCAA tournament 11 times in its history. He has gone 3 times in 5 seasons. He has made the NCAA tournament in 8 of the past 10 years overall and he has made it to the second weekend 50% of the time. What is not attractive about that?

I'm not sure how you couldn't see the attraction if purely looking at his numbers. He isn't perfect but he has some very big positives, especially for his age.

If you can find a trend then sure but you cited one game. I could find one game for every team in which they played down to their competition. That was my point about the nitpick part.

Not sure, I know Houston fans have already thought about keeping his son if he does make a jump. I would think Kelvin would advocate for his son getting the Houston job if that was an option but maybe not if he wants him to stay on his staff even longer. I wouldn't be opposed to the idea but would also not want it to be set in stone.

Hard to say. Musselman has a hell of a case to make. Only been a D1 coach for 4 years but has made the tournament 3 of those 4. Wins 76% of his games.
But that's a small sample size.
I like Sampson, Beard and Musselman. I'd be happy with any of those three.

The whole Mike Young thing has scared me a little but I could work with any of those first 5 coaches that are listed. Musselman has fallen off a little bit for good reason but I still love his background and think he would do fine.

If we hired Musselman we could have fun posting pictures of that green troll looking dude from Regular Show who's name is Muscle Man.

I feel like musselman would give us great troll bait. Especially how the rant reacts If a team is losing.
There was a stat the other day that said he had the most come from behind wins from a certain time period.

TTU may not be "known" for basketball, but they have been trying for a while now to be.
2001-2008 Bobby Knight
2008-2011 Pat Knight
2011-2012 Billy Clyde
2013-2016 Tubby Smith
2016-Present Chris Beard.
Since 2001 Arkansas has been to the NCAAs 7 times, TTU has been 7 times the sweet 16 3 times (2005, 2018, 2019).
The fact that you've now detached yourself from Gregg's ball and firmly latched to Beard's should be confirmation enough to you that he's the flavor of the weak.

Continue to try to pose coaches as not being qualified by listing games THEY WON. Idiot.
