Message: [QUOTE="SimpleDawg, post: 3866490, member: 9267"] Man........ you just won't give it up will you? Might I suggest the Mississippi State board next time? You will probably be met with more hostility over there because everyone over there is used to this set of subtle excuse whispers, but at least you're not turning this board into the Mississippi State board. This whole song is also getting old and I've heard this all before. This is a nice study except the part you missed about Vic having to remove the stain of Karen Aston from Austin, while McCray was given one of the best places to coach women's basketball in 2020. Sure once Texas gets going, it will likely easily beat Mississippi State in resources, culture, recruiting, and everything. But in 2020, it was much easier to win in Starkville than in Texas because of the mediocrity and deadbeat mentality that Karen Aston left on her players during her time. Vic would've crushed Texas with his last 4 teams and this year's team had he not left. So... that's essentially 5 years that a Texas team put together mostly by Karen Aston would not have beaten Vic. I also remember that he did actually beat them in 2016 and 2018. What's your opinion on Ben Howland's first year in Starkville? He had some 5 stars and highly decorated recruits his first year, but he took over a bottom of the league team and couldn't break .500 - I'd like to hear your take on that because I'm guessing Vic did a heck of a lot better job in Texas than Howland did his first year in Starkville. You also missed the part that Vic has 3 McDonald's All-Americans arriving next year. How many is McCray gonna keep is gonna be the question while Vic doesn't even need to worry about that. (OK, maybe Collier goes to the WNBA... but they still have tons of talent coming in while MSU is declining in incoming talent) Another tidbit you missed. [/QUOTE]
