I dont think anyone would predict Ray to win 20 games not only this year, but next year, and the next year, then the year after that.
Im not trying to be negative and say hes a bad coach. I cant say that because he is completely unproven. But what I can say is this was a record breaking season in the worst way possible.
I believe he was just put in a bad position because he should have never been hired. If stansbury isnt pushed into retirement, state has 2 all-sec players this year (nardo' and hood), at least an 8 seed in the tourney (because of how horrible the sec is this year), and they probably wouldve already signed next years #1 recruit in mississippi (who I think is a future first round pick) Devin Booker.
