Very similar in fact. How many times has Shields gotten rid of assistants rather than taking the knife himself? You're right Doc on the fact that Shields has never won anything other than divisions(well he did back into to a tournament championship with a bad team on a lot of luck and a couple of miracles), which in reality would place us about third or fourth in the combined league. At least Brown has won something. But, still the heat is on him now, because most programs insist on winning most of the time. A few bad or mediocre years, and Coach Jesus Christ himself would have been on the ropes at most schools. Good programs don't put up with what we've had to endure.
