Steve Alford, Andy Enfield, Larry Brown, John Groce, Richard Pitino.................there are plenty of new guys making it happen just as well as Ollie. and please stop saying we won the recruiting war for Purvis. we did not.
Kevin Ollie has had two seasons as an assistant, and one as a head-coach (without coaching in any post-season tournaments). Each of the below has a far more significant track record to work off as a coach than you are giving them credit for. And your comment about Purvis is incredibly ignorant - are you suggesting that no other school wanted a 5-star AA to transfer and that we were all that was left?
Steve Alford - Head coach at Iowa and New Mexico.
Andy Enfield - coached in the NBA with Milwaukee and the Celtics, then to FSU for a few years. And of course just had a high-profile NCAA run of exciting basketball with what can only be described as a trade-school.
Larry Brown - I am not even going to bother.
John Groce - Coached at NC State, Butler, Xavier and Ohio State.
Richard Pitino - Coached at Northeastern, Duquesne, Louisville, Florida then head coach at FIU.
