re: When Gregg Marshall is hired Mon as coach, Who has the best coach in SEC?

quote:

---

1. Billy Donavan-
3 Elite 8's, 4 Final Fours, 1 Runner-up, 2 National titles.

2. Gregg Marshall-
6 NCAA first round appearances with Winthrop, moved onto Wichita State where Marshall won the NIT, one second round appearance, One SWEET 16 appearance, and one final four (4 pts away from playing for National title), winning with players who don't receive star rankings


3. John Calapari-
track record for leaving programs on probation, but does have NCAA title with ineligible player, a couple runner-ups, relies on talent rather than coaching otherwise Calapari would have won in the NBA but it works I guess


4. Frank Martin-
traditionally in year 3 Martin wins, and has built the USCe program over the last few years to be in position to compete this season.

5. Donnie Tyndall-
will win at UT just needs time to build his program, his teams share the basketball better than any team in the conference besides of course Gregg Marshall

6-14 Interchangeable

I find your rankings, for the time being at least, acceptable Nick. I'd flip 2 & 3 probably, but I understand your reasoning.
