...but that's all. Just above average.

and on no planet is Scheyer a better coach than the one who just won an NCAA championship, no matter what weird qualifiers you try to use.

Well good thing he won a national title this year to negate all that.

We dont even know what Scheyer is seen as, other than Coach K's butler.

ok, so Bill Self is better. But UCONN's had just as much success , and will have more once Self is gone.

You and I have a different definition of consistency then.

Zero championships until 1991 = irrelvance.

Final four banners and championship game appearances = yawn

(we got 11 of those useless banners, more than everyone except UK, KU, Duke, UNC and UCLA) but we're still irrelevant bc no rings since 1960.

Same goes for Duke. Coach K put them on the map. Dukes bball history begins with him.

>*shrug* As a Duke fan, I wouldn't trade Scheyer for Hurley

you're emotionally attached from his playing days at Duke, I get it. I guess if Aaron Craft ended up as our coach , I'd say the same (but probbaly not lol)
