Here's a fact -- after that article was published by Gottlieb, SU made the Final Four. A Final Four no one thought they would sniff, because they played "tough" defense.  I'd like it if Gottlieb continued to write these pieces. And by the way -- that article is asking whether he is a top 10 coach ever. Yep, the fact our coach is even being discussed in those circles refutes essentially everything you and cuse boy are saying.

Is he as good a coach as Izzo, Cal, K, Self, Calhoun, etc...? I would say he's right there with them. That's good company to keep, and frankly if he was #6 on that 6 person list, that would still put him at what...top 8 to 9 coaches in the country?

It's an easy argument to make if you're trying to troll.

Was Bill Clinton (or Ronald Reagan) a great president? Well if you compare him to FDR, Teddy, Abe Lincoln, and George Washington, you've pretty much tried to stack the deck against him right? What about looking at all the presidents and say -- well damn, maybe not the best but pretty darn good.

Your argument is he isn't one of the best while comparing him to the best. The comparison alone destroys the argument.
