He also got destroyed by Baylor.

Brad is 0-6 vs P5 opponents at SFA.

Yeah, he hasn't built SFA into a legitimate P5 program yet.

I think it's time we consider that he might be a SLTH

Brad would be fine. He isn't stupid enough to take the job and not go find a good recruiter. That said, no way he comes back while Currie is still here. The reason for this is on both sides of that equation, imo.

if currie can play sandstorm, he can hire underwood.

i'm really surprised at the love brad gets from some posters on this blog
he really isn't good enough to coach at k-state and we can and should aim a lot higher

I think it's the fact that he's affiliated to Frank and from KS. Slam dunk material in some posters minds.

what sucks is he may have had a much greater chance of success because of momentum/continuity in 2012, but that's all gone now

TownieCat · « **Reply #86 on:** February 24, 2016, 02:28:55 PM »

I don't dislike Brad, but some people act like he has built the next Gonzaga or Butler at SFA. Not necessarily people who post here, just Brad supporters in general.

Everyone on this board would have bitched if we would have hired him after FM. Fact!

IDK man. I remember a lot of ppl thought that it would suck if we did that. A very underwhelming selection, like we got anyways.

Oh, I think this is a fair point.

But he's winning at a good clip and dominating the level of basketball he's at. He's building recruiting ties into Texas and the Midwest. There is inherent risk with Brad, no doubt, but I think he's worth a shot.

Also, I'd love Kelvin, maybe more than Brad, but I think Brad is more realistic.

Rage Against the McKee · « **Reply #92 on:** February 24, 2016, 02:51:34 PM »

I think Brad has just about reached the peak of what can be done with a Southland Conference basketball program. I would rather he were coaching somewhere else so we'd have a better idea of how good he can be, but I don't think knocking him because he can't beat Baylor with a team he recruited to Stephen F. Austin is very fair.

wetwillie · « **Reply #93 on:** February 24, 2016, 02:57:33 PM »

I wouldn't be pissed but I don't think he would be our savior. Probably a 60% of the time tourney team and never really challenge for a conference title.

sys · « **Reply #94 on:** February 24, 2016, 03:08:12 PM »

prob not exactly what was meant, but mean (n = 6) pre-stevens kenpoms at butler was 69, stevens kenpoms (n = 6) = 42.

for sfa, pre-underwood = 165 (n = 12), underwood = 54 (n = 3).

gonzaga was good from before the kenpom era, so there's no relevant comparison.

he's a k-state cat, he has d1 head coaching experience and has been very successful, including an NCAA tournament win. small sample size, but why are some acting like this wouldn't be a decent hire?

It would be a solid long term hire

it's the only hire.

Brad seems like a winner and not a loser and that goes a long way for me
