Question For Non Bluebloods

Remember Mike Davis making a championship game in 02? Had knights players, had a hohum regular season and caught fire as a 5 seed in the tournament? Kinda like UNC last year?

Not even close, keep hoping chief.

That's all fair. Sorry I couldn't read your mind from your previous post.

No worries. I should’ve elaborated more in my initial post.

Would YOU want Calipari?

Last year? Yes

This year when we have double our win total already? Nah

Not even close, keep hoping chief.

Explain how at worst it's not similar?

Hubert right now seems like the better coach, recruiting is going well and the UNC brand is more popular than IU on the national level. Keep hope alive and we’ll revisit this at the end of the season.

How does he seem like a better coach?

A better coach and recruiter. Hubert sat on the UNC bench for 9 season and played in the NBA for 9 years, that has to account for something. Davis had back to back losing seasons and had double digit losses every year while coaching at IU, also he missed the tournament twice in those 5 years. Davis learned under Knight for 3 years before you guys kicked him to the curb. This season isn't half over and you're saying Hubert is trending downward. Tell me this, what direction is Woodson trending?

In their first two years of coaching their records are very similar. UNC and IU in early 2000s are basically in identical spots.
