Message: [QUOTE="Orangezoo, post: 5661112, member: 237"] Right. Also I think many folks need to look out and see just how coaching trees aren’t what people think they are I mean coach K has Scheyer with all that Duke money handed him but then .. Capel (Pitt), Hurley( ASU), Collins(NW), Amaker(Harvard), Dawkins(UCF) as the most notable and two are on the hot seat, one is barely over .500 in his career and the other two are doing ok but Amaker had to step down after failing at the P4 level. You can go through a number of other coaching trees that haven’t panned out and there isn’t really a good standard. Going out of the family and into finding a coach elsewhere holds a lot more value and success in general. Thus even should Gerry come back around in the mold of like what Roy Williams did after being a household name then sure but there is a lot more to be said for going outside coaching trees and continuity.
