I have no issue with this last bolded stance.  I think my issue in your previous post was this statement by you,  "I was surprised to read SU was one of the top 8 jobs in all of college basketball".   In re-reading that previous post by you and now in this post I see it had mostly to do with the hiring of JB's successor which is impacted by many factors not the least of which just naming off the Top 15-20 coaches in the land at that time doesn't mean that coaches like Wright at Nova, Bennett at Virginia, or Few at Gonzaga will leave those places for SU [B][U]even if[/U][/B] JB were to win 2 more NCs making a clear separation between us and those three programs even more evident in terms of actual quantifiable information.

I do, however, find it amusing that in terms of the blue bolded statement above you have in the past done some of that but more often than not it does seem to me that you do tend to try and stand above it all, ridiculing things others put forth from this stance but unwilling to establish what you think the criteria should be.  It's a stance that likely ensures you don't lose an argument but also tends to mean you don't win many either.

So your final concluding statement means nothing to me, especially without defining "a ton", without knowing what the "market" will be, or even who the Top 10-15 coaches will be at that time JB finally does decide to retire since all other criteria has been eliminated by you as an exercise in arbitrariness and futility.

Cheers,
