As RP stated above, the teams you mentioned are all down this year. I have no axe to grind with SS. I was very excited when he was hired. Thought it was a great hire.
1. In the years he's been here, how many NCAA tourney games has he won? Zero
2. How many conference championships has he won ? Zero.
3. How many Conference tourney Championships has he won? Zero.
4. Does he have a winning B12 record? No. What is his B12 conference record?
47-55.
5. Is he a good recruiter? Yes.
6. Does he get the best from the talent he puts on the floor? No.
7. Do his teams play with heart? Yes.
8. Do his teams play with discipline? No.
9. Is he a good guy? Yes, a very good guy.
I think too many Questions asked here are answered with a No.
After watching 95% of the games he's coached here, I am sorely disappointed.
If you are happy with the team's performance over the Shaka years, fine. I'm not.
I would put Shaka's coaching expertise smack dab in the mid level of B12 coaches. Below coaches at ttu, BU, ou, KU, and wvu. His coaching of BB x's and o's is mid level in the B12. He's there with tcu's, Ksu's, isu's, and osu.
That is how I see it.
