WHO SHOULD MICHIGAN GET TO REPLACE BEILEIN?

[PEOPLESCHICKEN]

They aren’t even in the top 50 in all time wins.

So if we said the sky is blue you are going to argue that right?

Viewed that way. But Clemson wasn't exactly a destination job when Dabo took it!

Since when did Michigan hoops become a destination job? Ain't like it is Kentucky, Duke, North Carolina, UCLA, etal.

Been a destination job since the 90's. UCLA is not a destination job

So you think coaching at a top NBA team with huge history is a worse job than Michigan who the fans didn’t know existed between the Fab5 and 2012?

Does Michigan play in the second best conference in college basketball? Is Michigan not losing their top 3 scorers? Is the Big12 not an easier conference with really only one elite team that just fell flat on its face? Losing Culver’s will be a huge hit but Michigan is not in a better position to compete as they sit right now.

Simply because you were not aware of the basketball program prior to the Fab5 doesn't apply to others. In fact, they have a pretty impressive history overall. But its not worth debating.

meeeechegan's been a "destination job" since the 90's? Stop the homerism. They missed The Tourney 10 years in a row from '99 to '08. The tourney trips in '92, '93, '96 & '98 have been vacated.

So from 1990 until Beilein's 2nd year in ann arbor ('09) they have a total of 4 Tourney trips ('90, '94, '95, '09) that count.

destination job

Reading isn’t your strong point is it? Michigan fans did not know that they were playing basketball between the times that the Fab5 cheated until well into Beilein’s tenure.

If somebody said something like Arkansas is a top 10-15 all time football program, I’m going to call them out on it. I’m sorry facts like Michigan is outside the top 50 in all time wins hurts you but it is part of the discussion when talking about the top 10-15 teams all time. Even if you included the wins that were vacated, they aren’t in they are 49th in wins. Hardly a top all time program.

Is it being a destination how you got all time great coaches like Tommy Amaker and Brian Ellerbe?

They aren't hiring a splash name.

 

[broncosmitty]

And as a lifelong Michigan basketball fan, yes, I hate the fanbase.

You don’t need a splash name, just a good coach. Tom Izzo was the head coach of Siena College when MSU hired him.

Coach K was nothing special at Army when Duke signed him.

Is being a destination job why UCLA got Alford? Howland? Lavin? Herrick?

I guess Michigan State football is a “destination job” based on your weak ass bar, except of course Dantonio didn’t bail on MSU like Beilein did.

I've asked that of myself while sitting with two thousand others at Crisler on Senior Night.

Moreso than Michigan basketball is.

Happy for JB, just wish he'd got the Stones job last year instead of going to work for that fuckhead Gilbert.
