He just has no college experience and is not a great coach.


List me the current "great" SEC basketball coaches. If your being honest there is just one. To me "great" means universally thought of as a championship caliber coach and outside coach Cal nobody in the SEC has that. He doesn't have to be great to be successful at Bama. No one at Bama expects multiple final fours. We just want a competitive team that is fun to watch that consistently makes the tournament. Bama had that under Wimp and no one is going to call Wimp a "great" coach.

I can name 3

Cal, Donovan, and Pearl. ALL 3 championship caliber coaches. Know a little about your sport before you open your mouth. This aint football.

That's fair.

But Gregg Marshall is a GREAT coach, so I guess this just seems very lackluster in comparison.
