Buckeyes are best
Seriously (big guy), those three names are like punishments, not upgrades from one from best coaches of this era. What other names could possibly be on a list that starts with those? Kelvin Sampson? Tubby Smith? Hey, Gary Williams is available again - He's got a title!
EDIT: just noticed another name on the HOLY wishlist: Tommy Amaker.

Jesus.
What's wrong with Tommy Amaker? Nick Saban in football is proof that just because you don't start out a stud coach doesn't mean you can't learn and become one.... Plenty of coaches where ushered out or fired only to go on and do some big things elsewhere.

He was comical at scUM. Comical. He's been successful at Harvard. Great. The B1G ain't the Ivy League. And did you just mention Saban? In the same breath as Tommy Amaker? You wanna bounce a guy that's won 5 BiG titles, been to 5 Sweet 16s, 3 Elite 8s, and 2 Final Fours for a guy who failed miserably in the B1G once already, and has a nice little run in the Ivy League. Maybe we should also show Urban the door and hire Rich Rodriguez. Chrissakes...

Actually like I said at least 5 times now that I would be fine with keeping Matta, but would like to see some adjustments to the staff bc the lack of development lately is disappointing to say the least. Like how our team of 2 Sr's, 4 Jr's, and a soph couldn't win a game in the Tourney and finished poorly in the B10. The only players that to me looked better was Q and at times Sam Thompson. Matta again, great recruiter, average at coaching and developing the players and having them ready go and adjusting in games etc etc. Without a stud like Sully, Thomas, Oden/Conley etc, we are just an average team. Tom Izzo is a guy who we should look to and compare our coach too. He always takes his guys and prepares them and gets the ready.

Care to explain how Matta doesn't compare to Izzo?
(and to your point about Matta having talent... I'm reasonably sure Izzo has had some talent too, there, boss)

You're saying they are going to get worse in the future. How the fuck is that a fact? Only a complete and utter retard would debase and degrade what Matta has done at a FOOTBALL SCHOOL because of one "bad" year where they still won 25 games and got a 6 seed.
