Message: [QUOTE="Travelman6, post: 4235576, member: 7597"] Ewing levels of ineptitude from Crean this year with a 1-17 record in the SEC and 6-26 overall at Georgia. His performance was probably worse than Ewing too as, one would think Georgia holds a recruiting advantage over GTown. What a fall from grace after his 27-6 2003 FF run with Marquette. Sometimes I think a coach is better off staying with a team like Marquette, Butler (when they made back to back finals) or Gonzaga* and just carve out their own niche rather than jump ship. Ya, some suceed, but more fail quite spectacularly IMO. But of course, the lure of big money and glory. He did take Indiana to sweet 16s in 3 of 5 years but not sure what happened in that last year. Figured he could do a good job at Georgia but yikes at that 47-75 over 4 years at Georgia and 15-57 in conference. *IMO Few should do what Jimmy B is doing and just stay in Gonzaga for 10-20 more years and not leave. Nice little niche he has and he will be a legend/hero for years to come in Spokane/Washington (if he isn't already). [/QUOTE]
