Yes, and as I said, I value consistency.
How long has Dave Van Horn been here and why doesn't he have any titles?

This is also disingenuous. No one is calling for Mike to win a natty this year. People just want to get out of the opening weekend for once and he can't even deliver that one time in 8 years. In year 2 DVH was in the CWS.

Seems I was correct when I said he had a losing season.
26-29
Anderson has never had that sort of blemish on his resume. EVER.

By the way that losing season came after his fourth CWS appearance.

Also, I think it's wise to focus on winning a conference titles before tackling a National Title.
When you look down Van Horn's results in the SEC you see things like TIED FOR FIFTH in the Western division. 7th in the West! 4th in the West twice!
Anderson's team is sitting at #3 in the SEC overall. Not in the West, but out of the field of 14.

One of many reasons why comparing across sports is dumb

This is disengenous. He had a team that had the eventual National Champs beat in the 2nd round a couple years ago.
It isn't honest to say that team wasn't good enough to be an elite 8 team. Good try though.

LSU is historically the best baseball program in the country. Since van horn has been at Arkansas 4 DIFFERENT sec teams have won the national title. How many titles has the sec brought home in basketball in Mike's tenure?

Now I definitely know you don't watch college baseball at any more than a casual level. No one gives a shite about conference titles. DVH routinely saves arms during the tournament unless we need wins to bolster seeding like last year when national seeds were on the line.

You followed one lie with a another. Van Horn has repeatedly stated he plays to win every game.
Also, earlier you said Mike hasn't had a team "remotely close to good enough to play in the elite 8".
That is patently false.

Oh, it's already been established that Dave got out coached when it counted. And that Dave fricked up by mind controlling our second baseman to try to steal a pop fly meant for a right fielder.

Can't have it both ways. You backed yourself into that corner
Of course, this is another reason why you don't bring up other sports.

Good God, you have to be trolling now. MA at Arkansas, 0, Zilch, notta elite 8's or conference championships. Out in round one, over and over again, IF and When he makes it.
DVH, the equivalent of elite 8, again and again... Over and over, even in the finals.... Twice in his tenure.
Since we are comparing sports.
Recruiting DVH > CMA... Just look it up.
Coaching, Dude.. DVH loses coaches all the time to MLB yet consistently gets as good, if not better. CMA is mostly stayed with inconsistent coaches DVH>CMA
Results.. LMAO CVH >CMA on a consistent basis
Dress... Finally... CMA > DVH
Salary... I don't know why, but DMA>DVH which is a damn shame. Must be because of what exactly? Not results, Recruiting, Or Coaching... hmmmm

That isn't a corner. You see, I'm not trying to argue that that was any special feat by Anderson putting North Carolina on the ropes. It's just a simple fact that that team was good enough to play in the elite 8.
On the other hand Van Horn should have won a title. He had it won. But he didn't. And in the end, neither coach won.
