Message: [QUOTE="Arangeman, post: 2850461, member: 6300"] You would think the first coach to follow a legend would be a tough go but that isn’t always the case. In my basketball watching lifetime there have been numerous successful transitions from legend to the next hire. I’m sure I missed some in each category. Jud - Izzo Roy - Self Crum - Pitino Smith - Guthridge (2 FF in 3 yrs) Olson - Miller Chaney - Dunphy Keady - Painter Calhoun - Ollie (I’d trade a coaching flame out for a title) Mixed bag Rollie - Lappas (lasted 9 years at Nova) G Williams - Turgeon Henson - Kruger (bolted for NBA) Busts Thompson - Esherick Louie - Mahoney Knight - Davis Sutton - Sutton Tark - Rollie ($ grab) [/QUOTE]
