Not great, I admit, but hardly something to sneeze at.
In terms of opponent strength, what are his best wins outside of Louisville 2X, Oklahoma State and the 2 NCAA wins?
I counted the above as better than decent. I think that is accurate. I would call the win over Gonzaga at home last year just decent. I think the UTEP game to get to the NCAA tournament is in his top 5.
Aside from that, the vast majority of Pastner's wins have come against teams ranked below RPI 150. Anybody on this board could have won most of those if we just let the assistants handle the Xs and Os and handled the motivation and management factors
I think Pastner is a great human being, but I hate him as a basketball coach.
Again, this thread is supposed to be about Gillen. If you want to continue these tireless rants about Pastner, are you not intelligent to start your own thread and make it easier for those of like minds to quickly pile on?
Just a suggestion.

When they gave Nichols' stats of 7 points, 7 rebounds, and 7 blocks, Pete said he ought to go straight to the dogtrack after the game.

First I just want to thank you for the kind suggestion. It took me awhile to assimilate your post. To answer your question, no I am not intelligent enough to start my own thread. My sincere apologies for any inconvenience to you

He's messing with you. Our fan base likes Gillen and this fan base doesn't like anyone.

That's Gillen's way of saying big, strong, intimidating dudes. It wasn't meant to be demeaning I'm sure.

Who was coaching that UTEP team?

Actually he said that Memphis lost a lot of players and has no returning guards, and that he understood Memphis fans' passion leading to impatience, but that it takes time with as many newcomers as we have.
Gillen hit it right on the mark. Outside of an out of shape Kedren, not one of our backcourt players played a single minute of D1 basketball bfore the start of the season. Whether one can blame the coach for recruiting or other factors, the point is that it takes T-I-M-E and practicing together for the team to mesh even with a perceived solid frontcourt. I like Pookie, (he can break down an defender and has an eye for finding the right player) Woodson and Burrell. I think Cunningham can provide some key minutes after watching him play. I like the effort by all of the players except for Shaq
Did coach think Pookie would play his freshman year ? If so , then he would of had a sophmore with some playing experience ready the next year . Injuries and academics sometimes mess with the best made plans .
