Message: [QUOTE="DefenseBB, post: 3883222, member: 7492"] Let me pose this in response first- What if Johnnie Harris had gotten the MSU job this year instead of Nikki McCray? Would the MSU team be this bad? Probably not. Would they have met any preseason MSU forecasts? Also probably not, which is exactly what happened to Elzy at Kentucky. Now the bigger question is in the next 5 years. Elzy has not done great with all that talent of which she was an assistant at Kentucky. Will they improve over the next 5 years, not likely. Is that good enough for Kentucky-don't know as it depends how far they slip. For MSU, the answer is how far do they fall before plateauing and will it be enough for the fan base. Probably fall too much that Nikki McCray is let go. My guess in is 5 years, Elzy still has the Kentucky job while McCray will be looking elsewhere, as will Fargas. What I am curious about is Ole Miss and how they look next year if Austin is gone. Part of me thinks Coach Yo may be ok and part of me thinks she's lucky to get Austin for the one year. [/QUOTE]
