I loved Will, but that's kinda a stretch.
Not really good but way above average when you consider there are 350 d1 teams. He would've started on probably half the teams in cusa that year if not more. He was solid

Yeah, how's his record against quality competition again? And how, again, does he excel as a floor coach?
We will see what happens at the end of the season. Regardless of the outcome, it's gonna be interesting.
And let's not forget you lord and savior was 1-3 against ranked teams the year he skipped town. 30 wins against subpar teams but couldn't beat the top teams.
And despite that we still managed a Sweet 16... Pastner would get a slide on his record against decent teams if he had made it to a Sweet 16 or better at any point in the past 6 years...
Exactly, forget the fine print, it's the headlines that matter, 33-4 and a fourth straight Sweet 16 after three previous Elite 8 or better.
Plus, if X had stayed he had the #1 recruiting class coming in Henry, Wall, Cousins, etc. We would have be favored to win the NC that year IN A WALK.
But forget this clown. He's living in his own reality.

Half? More like all. EVERY coach would have traded the Memphis roster in 09-10 and in 10-11 for their roster.
EVERY one.

Hopefully we'll pull off three upsets
I wouldn't mind 4 upsets.
I see a bunch of "upsets" if that happens.
