Message: [QUOTE="DefenseBB, post: 2997652, member: 7492"] If I may interject, these are not an apples to apples comparison. How many titles has Duke won? What was their highest attendance mark? Yes, they had a nice run in the late 90's early '00s (2 Final Fours; 2- Elite 8's and 13/15 NCAA's but then Gail left (and she also stopped winning). As for the tale of tape: JPM- 297-80[B] (.788) [/B]at Duke 132-38[B] (.776) [/B]in ACC (which is a much tougher conference now. 4 ACC titles 2-2nd;3-3rd;2-4th and 1-7th place and 10/11 NCAA, best finish Elite 8- 4 times. HW-165-58 [B](.740)[/B] and 72-28 [B](.720)[/B] with 1 SEC title, 2 regular season titles (these 3 these feats occurred her first 3 years) with 6 NCAA's 3 Elite 8 finishes. The expectation is simply not the same. Plus JPM has done a better job in winning overall and in their league with less talent that will always be less given the gravitas of the Tenn program. And JPM evolves her players more than Holly. [/QUOTE]
