Title: Rank the Big XII coaches
Post by: Cartierfor3 on April 03, 2012, 12:25:43 PM
Feel free to list your rankings from the 2011-2012 season if you wish.

Only 9 to rank, no TCU coach yet obviously.

CF3's opinion is as follows:

1. Self
2. Barnes
3. Huggins
------------
4. Drew
5. Hoiberg
6. Kruger
7. Weber
8. Ford
9. Gillespie (failed at Kentucky, hard to ignore that fact)

I assume this list is "all inclusive," factoring in both the coach's ability to X & O and to recruit.  Correct?

Scott Drew sure draws up a shitload of dunk plays after timeouts considering no one thinks he knows how to coach.

Good point, but I personally think that most competent coaches could have taken his players further in conference play.  Took him too long to get away from living in zone on D, and settling for jumpers on O.   He was coaching (and Baylor was playing) about as good as anyone the last month of the season.  If they were on the other side of the bracket they easily could have been a Final Four squad.

He's fine on offense.  In fact, he's pretty good.  His defenses though?  Shouldn't this year's version of the Bears finished better than 40th in DE?  Better than 100th in any one of the defensive four factors?

pro tip:  If posters like Kat Kid and AzCat keep forgetting Billy Gillespie is a coach in the Big XII, he should probably rank last.

Good point.  But then again, the team this year was awful.  I still think he's a good coach.

LOL - True.  I added him @ Tier 3 but he'll probably move up as he rebuilds.
