Re: Davidson as a 7 Seed is Insane

Hmmm now isn't that reminiscent of the same guy YOU claim is not an elite coach. A guy who happens to have won a national title, more NCAA wins and more career wins.

Re: Davidson as a 7 Seed is Insane

I don't think anyone is saying he's a bad coach. I'd say he's a great coach, but you just said he's possibly the 2nd best coach in America.

Re: Davidson as a 7 Seed is Insane

There are at least 6 to 8 coaches I would consider ahead of Pearl if I was running an elite program. I dont even think he is a better coach than Billie Gillespie or Donovan for that matter

Re: Davidson as a 7 Seed is Insane

^would have to agree about Gillespie and Donovan, HB

Oddly enough, I'm turning into a Kentucky "fan" solely because of Billy. If you're a coach, follow that guy. Amazing.

If Roy did it at UW Milwaukee and an ailing Tennessee program instead of Kansas and UNC, then I'd give him the same credit.

There's also probably a little homerism, because Pearl is beloved up here.

Re: Davidson as a 7 Seed is Insane

Pearl is top 10 coach, but not top 2.......a couple more sweet 16 appearences tho and he may earn that respect to be mentioned there tho....top 5 requires national titels....Im talkin' bout guys like Tom Izzo, Roy Williams, Billy D, Coach K, and the like...

Check your facts, Doherty had run UNC to the ground before Roy showed up.

So? Those guys were acting like primadonnas. The team was doing poorly. There was no order on the team. Even fans had lost interest in the team. My roommate went to UNC, and said you couldn't even beg fans to go to the games. Roy completely changed all that.

Anything else you wanna add?
