I’m with you. I really do get it. But this coach stuff is blown out of proportion imo. MARK POPE IS OUR HEAD COACH. That’s my point in bold letters. To act like somebody has to have a final four or have success ten years before getting this job is crazy.Actually no, being a head coach of an NBA franchise means you are coaching a team full of pros, the best of the best, you don't have to develop young players and build a team out of them
Plus, the NBA is so different than college.
The guy at BYU is doing a good job, but having Dybansta and Saunders will cover up a lot of flaws. I don't know what his coaching background is prior to the NBA, but he seems to be a pretty good head coach. He’s on a very short list of NBA guys that did well as college coaches. Larry Brown is really the only other one I can think of.
Yea Rondo could come here and be terrible. POPE IS HERE AND IS TERRIBLE. You don’t have to be Hurley to get this job. I would bet money Rondo would give us better results than Pope.
Better recruits. More spotlight. More swag. More toughness. More wins. Not the laughing stock of college basketball. Always talked about nationally because Rondo has that kind of pull.
Do yall realize in the basketball world Rondo has way more pull than a two time national championship winning coach?
I say we just hire lexingtons KKK leader and call it a day hell our program is living in the past.
