Tourney is all about matchups, getting hot at the right time of the year, or riding some stud player like Kemba.

Don't be so obtuse. Does your conference recruit for you, train your players, or determine what you run?

It's a poor indicator for both conference strength and coaching ability.

As a matter of fact I don't think I have ever made a post that references oscar's coaching ability as bad. Good coaches get fired a lot.

You could argue that oscar isn't a good coach and deserved to be fired without considering his tournament record.
