If Keatts were literally the only good coach available, of course it makes sense to pay him $2.5 million/year.

But that's not how things work.

A reminder of proper strategy since it's still debated. - alwaysright MU - 1/26 16:12:28

If Gregg Marshall is your guy then overspend and get him - alstl MU - 1/26 17:06:58

Greggggggg knows how strong a legacy program this is - Fred G. Sanford USA - 1/26 17:13:02

We should pay whatever it takes to get the best coach that's - zounami MU - 1/26 17:05:36

Brad Underwood and Chris Bear were as hot of - alwaysright MU - 1/26 17:38:18

again....great post my thoughts exactly - Bump834 MU - 1/26 21:56:23

If we want Keatts, for example, then we pay what it takes - zounami MU - 1/26 17:45:27

The problem with this philosophy - haeffb MU - 1/26 18:35:46

Nobody else is going to pay him that much either - alwaysright MU - 1/26 17:47:41

If so then we won't need to go that high. (nm) - zounami MU - 1/26 17:49:18

Underwood and Beard were bigger names than - alwaysright MU - 1/26 17:53:42

So what? Are you suggesting we should settle for a mediocre - zounami MU - 1/26 18:23:23

I see what you're saying, but the current market - Eggs MU - 1/26 19:20:43

We're paying $1.5 million for a worthless D-2 coach... - zounami MU - 1/26 19:42:49

Pretty sure no one said that. - zodiac6 JC - 1/26 18:30:19

We were arguing a hypothetical scenario, obviously. (nm) - zounami MU - 1/26 18:31:46

A hypothetical scenario that would never exist. - zodiac6 JC - 1/26 18:37:23

Scenerio: The best coach, by far, willing to take the job... - zounami MU - 1/26 18:48:12

Very nice - haeffb MU - 1/26 19:18:04

it's subjective, but here goes... - zounami MU - 1/26 20:03:00

Interesting that you rate both Martin's so high. Both - alwaysright MU - 1/26 20:37:26

FM because of his track record, CM because he's a - zounami MU - 1/26 20:46:19

having NCAA teams most seasons is not good enough. - alwaysright MU - 1/27 07:20:25

I respect - haeffb MU - 1/26 20:11:51

Got to give him credit for actually putting something down. - alwaysright MU - 1/26 20:32:31

List some coaches in order - haeffb MU - 1/26 21:40:06

I didn't say his list was the most accurate list it could - alwaysright MU - 1/27 07:21:16

Their respective track records serve as an objective basis, - zounami MU - 1/26 20:15:09

That isn't a realistic scenario.(nm) - zodiac6 JC - 1/26 19:09:24

Agree with this almost entirely. - zodiac6 JC - 1/26 16:39:02

Maybe, but some of us were pretty certain - alwaysright MU - 1/26 17:34:17

And most of the arguments were BS. - zodiac6 JC - 1/26 17:55:37

we blew it on Bryce Drew, and another SEC program - FIJItiger MU

- 1/26 16:46:30

Too early to say that. Vandy is 9-11. - zodiac6 JC - 1/26 16:58:30

We kept Kim another year. We blew it (nm) - FIJItiger MU

- 1/26 16:59:16

Unless we get rid of KA and replace him with someone - zodiac6 JC - 1/26 17:00:14

This is a valid point that many don't get. I kind of think - alwaysright MU - 1/26 20:35:49

Drew seems like a perfectly fine coach. - zodiac6 JC - 1/26 20:37:14

Stan Heath is probably available. Been to the Elite 8 - Fred G. Sanford USA - 1/26 16:52:42

Likely is available, since he isn't a good coach (nm) - FIJItiger MU

- 1/26 16:58:45

HE WENT TO THE ELITE 8!!!!!!! - Fred G. Sanford USA - 1/26 17:05:11

so has Quin Snyder and Steve Lavin.. - VegasTiger MU - 1/26 17:15:49

RE: so has Quin Snyder and Steve Lavin.. - jrizzle MU - 1/26 22:34:13

That's just not true. Quin and Steve are also strong - Fred G. Sanford USA - 1/26 17:18:26

lol looked to see where he was, assistant at BC - MidMoBaller4Life MU - 1/26 16:53:43

He went to the Elite 8. The NCAA tourney is like Heaven and - Fred G. Sanford USA - 1/26 16:55:51

Orange could call him Heef(nm) - MidMoBaller4Life MU - 1/26 16:56:18

Keatts resume compares favorably to Drew - wu-tangtiger MU - 1/26 16:51:00

Thing I like about Keattes - FIJItiger MU

- 1/26 16:58:09

What are they in efficiencies - wu-tangtiger MU - 1/26 17:09:31
