The twins would have been nice additions, and Brodhead with those 5 would have done ok. I doubt he would have beat MTSU or WKU.

    How would you know how long it takes to build a college basketball program? What is your line of work?

    I dont remember McNeese lighting it up when they were there.

    Good SLC level players, but in a SunBelt with MTSU, WKU, an the two Arkansas schools, they would have been just another couple of ok guards. Certainly not good enough to maintain what Hall had established.

    Mcneese beat UL every year Brodhead was coaching at McNeese.

    We'd actually know by observing winners. The vast majority of successful coaches in college sports actually do well by their 3rd year. So by our own standards he's a bust going into year 8.

    Everybody who reads this fan site knows my view on the Big Fish. He’s been a bust almost every season. But this thread is about women basketball.

    Gary is a great person as far as I can tell and a great high school coach. He’s in over his head in in NCAA Div I basketball. That doesn’t make him a bad person, or loser. Most coaches plateau and get fired. Here they rest and accumulate higher pensions.

    Kelley Hall took over a program that had never had a winning season, and in less than half the time Brodhead has had, he coached his team to an NCAA at large bid. That is one.

    In men's basketball at Little Rock, Chris Beard took over a team that won 7 games the year before he arrived. He had 9 new faced of 13 on the roster and in his FIRST year went 31-4 and WON a first round NCAA game. That is two.

    Ron Hunter at Georgia State won 3 outright Conference championships and an NCAA Tournament game in only 5 year with the program. That is 3, and we haven't even left the SBC, nor have we talked about the really successful women's coaches at MTSU and Little Rock.
