You know who else has won one?
My guy Brad.
At S freakin' FA.
Love Brad and think he definitely should be in serious consideration for the job...but I do wonder how much of his success is due to playing in a very weak league.
UTSA had actually been pretty successful prior to Brad (they got rolling in HC Danny Kaspar's 8th year in 2007-08)
07-08 26-6 (13-3) - Southland reg. season champs, NIT Opening Round
08-09 24-8 (13-3) - Southland reg. season and tourney champs, NCAA First Round
09-10 23-9 (11-5) - 2nd in Southland
10-11 18-11 (9-7)
11-12 20-12 (12-4) - 2nd in Southland
12-13 27-4 (16-2) - Southland reg. season champs, NIT Opening Round (Kaspar took the Texas State job after the season)
The only notable opponent BU has beaten (besides VCU) is Memphis. They also lost to a 10-19 Tulane team earlier this year. Brad is obviously a much better coach than Kaspar, but I do wonder how he'd handle the mess he'd inherit here (ADJC's meddling ass included) as compared to the favorable situation he stepped into in Nacogdoches. He'd be extremely tough to ignore with another tourney upset, though.
