"CBB Post: Sleeping Giants Edition"


          

could have also been titled chronic underachievers.

I made this post w/ 2 programs in mind:

1. Georgia

2. Saint Louis


There is no really good reason that these programs aren't perennial top 25 programs. SLU has a good excuse now, but even before Majerus got there, they were underachieving, IMO.

If I were SLU, I'd take the show-cause hit and hire Bruce Pearl. I'm not sure how SLU's politics would get in the way of hiring a Jewish coach, but fuck all that, I'd go get him.

Georgia really has no excuse and I won't waste keystrokes on them, but Atlanta is <70 miles away, and Tech can't admit 3/4ths of em.


Any others that are glaring?

DePaul should probably be on this list too.

I mean how many of those cats made it to the league in a meaningful way?

And Altman is clearly a huge upgrade over EK. He'll get a conference title this year, and probably start parlaying his results into bigger recruiting wins going forward.

I didn't even consider Oregon for this list because it doesn't seem like that long ago when they were in the Elite 8 w/ Ridnour, but shit, that was 11 yrs ago.
