If monte Lee is our new baseball coach, here is what I have

To say about our coaching hires over the last 7 years.
Football- Bowden replaced by Dabo. Upgrade Baseball- Jack replaced by Monte Lee (I hope it's true) Upgrade Basketball- I have been very supportive of Brownell since his hire. I am now not so confident in his ability to get us in the top 1/3 in the ACC. I am now ready for an upgrade in basketball. Seeing how DRad handle baseball I have confidence he has the balls to make a change if things don't improve.

Brownell has by far the most difficult assignment.***

about Brownell the last few years. Recruiting had been poor and results were not coming. However, I've always liked him a lot, and felt he could win if he had the players. Now, it looks like recruiting is picking up, and with the new arena, he's got to get a shot. If there isn't significant improvement (NCAA tourney at least) in that time, then he's got to go too.
Leggett was obviously a great coach, and I really believe Brownell is too. However, if the program stalls or regresses too much on their watch or goals are not consistently met, the head coach MUST go, no matter how much we like them, what they have accomplished in the past, or how good we believe them to be. They must produce, unfortunately, even if the failures are due in part to circumstances beyond their control. The coach is too closely tied to those failures and fair or not, sometimes a change is the only way to turn it around and get a fresh start. It's not personal, it may not be fair, but that's the way it is.

I hate to admit it but I think Martin is building a program at cootville & that will make it harder for BB or an other coach. I hope BB can have a good year for recruiting but its hanna be tuff Go Tigers

Martin may have some good teams, but USuC will struggle for consistency under Martin, bc he is belligerent to his players and (therefore) will not attract top talent.

Dabo at the time was a huge risk/reward. Glad it's been a huge success.
Brownell no matter how good a coach has downgraded the status of the program. Period.
Monte is a bust, but his assistant at CofC is a star, much like Jack's former assistants.
