for an SEC job.

He's never coached, competed, or won above a low-major, barely D-1 level.

Kim Anderson won a national title at the D-2 level, but it didn't translate. It was irrelevant experience.

And Gates "success" in the Horizon League, which is utter garbage, has been lukewarm. He's 1-20 vs Kenpom top 150 teams. His Kenpom regressed from 169 (bad) to 195 (awful) from last year to the current. And he got crushed by Wright State in the Horizon League tourney.

Hell, we may as well have hired the Wright State coach (well, if his skin tone were darker, since that seemed to be the #1 criteria).

Please explain why this message is being reported.

What in Todd Golden's resume suggest he was more - Eggs MU - 3/21 11:30:44

You've answered your own question - the conferences - ScottsdaleTiger MU - 3/21 12:09:48

Exactly. Golden has relevant experience. Gates doesn't. (nm) - zounami MU - 3/21 12:23:19

It cuts both ways. It's also a lot easier to have - c.q. MU - 3/21 11:44:03

That's a fair statement - Eggs MU - 3/21 11:46:44

I easily believe golden has the better resume - Gavin Citrus MU - 3/21 11:41:31

sounds like a couple years ago when Fla hired white - cal tiger MU - 3/21 12:15:24

If we're only looking at HC resumes, I agree with you. - kmawv8 MU - 3/21 11:43:31

That experience should have sharpened his talent evaluation - hou4mu MU - 3/21 11:54:15

solid post - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 3/21 11:55:17

RE: If we're only looking at HC resumes, I agree with you. - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 3/21 11:45:47

I also agree. I'm not dogging Gates at all - Gavin Citrus MU - 3/21 11:45:20

depends what you value - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 3/21 11:47:25

Yup, both require ability - Gavin Citrus MU - 3/21 11:51:39

Golden's Kenpom: 23... Gates' Kenpom: 195... - zounami MU - 3/21 11:40:31

You do understand that Kenpom is largely based on schedule - Eggs MU - 3/21 11:45:11

This isn’t really true. It does try to adjust - wu-tangtiger MU - 3/21 12:01:14

For once we agree. (nm) - zounami MU - 3/21 12:02:01

Then how did Wright State have a top 75 Kenpom last year? (nm) - zounami MU - 3/21 11:48:56

Covid scheduling - Eggs MU - 3/21 11:50:01

lol... is this wutang? (nm) - zounami MU - 3/21 11:50:45

Nope, I'm just willing to wait and see what happens - Eggs MU - 3/21 11:53:06

Ironically, even wutang called you out in this case... - zounami MU - 3/21 12:03:13

For the multi-million $ salary we'll be paying, we should - zounami MU - 3/21 11:55:15

You've made your point. You've had 57 posts about kenpom - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 3/21 12:06:52

If others make the same points repeatedly... - zounami MU - 3/21 12:18:00

Drinkwitz didn't show that - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 3/21 12:04:29

yes, he did... we've been over this (nm) - zounami MU - 3/21 12:18:22

no, he didn't - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 3/21 12:24:29

did you read what he posted? - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 3/21 11:41:40

Which is to say that Gates doesn't have relevant experience - zounami MU - 3/21 11:48:29

you also thought CM was going to get us to a Final Four - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 3/21 11:53:34

(1) This is a strawman argument. (2) It's a falsehood... - zounami MU - 3/21 11:57:58

pathetic that you edited that post he linked(nm) - MizzouAstro MU

- 3/21 12:05:06

No, not at all. I explained why I did it... - zounami MU - 3/21 12:08:00

yes, yes it is(nm) - MizzouAstro MU

- 3/21 12:16:58

no, no it isn't (nm) - zounami MU - 3/21 12:18:33

here's another he'll be editing soon - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 3/21 12:06:04

No, that was a serious take... - zounami MU - 3/21 12:16:39

As I've suggested to you already - kmawv8 MU - 3/21 12:04:23

There's nothing wrong with occasional hyperbole... - zounami MU - 3/21 12:05:24

No, that wasn't a lie. - kmawv8 MU - 3/21 12:07:18

then link to a source (nm) - zounami MU - 3/21 12:19:08

LOL - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 3/21 12:00:01

man, talk about projecting (nm) - zounami MU - 3/21 12:00:34

do you still like CM's chances of success at Mizzou better - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 3/21 12:07:37

Damn dude. We've been over this. That wasn't my final - zounami MU - 3/21 12:21:05

Stick with the relevant experience angle - Eggs MU - 3/21 11:50:47

Any of the midmajor names came with question marks - jlbomega MU - 3/21 11:36:45

Nothing, I don't want Golden - zoomer 99 - 3/21 11:35:40

I didn't feel like Golden was the right fit - Eggs MU - 3/21 11:38:12

Here is all you need to know. Gates first win at Mizzou - DHighlander NWMSU - 3/21 11:34:47

Gates' first game at Mizzou - Gavin Citrus MU - 3/21 11:43:04

South Dakota, our first game, was ranked 202 last year - kmawv8 MU - 3/21 11:38:44

don't even get him started on why we didn't wait until Coach - TigerA MU - 3/21 11:40:18

So ? nm - Nohawks KC - 3/21 11:38:05

i'm fine with that(nm) - TigerA MU - 3/21 11:37:04

Like UMKC?(nm) - Eggs MU - 3/21 11:35:55

You miss the point. UMKC would be better than almost any - DHighlander NWMSU - 3/21 11:39:34

Well your point was completely wrong anyway (nm) - kmawv8 MU - 3/21 11:40:24

psst... - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 3/21 11:40:17

Will he have SEC caliber players? The Leonard Hamilton - DHighlander NWMSU - 3/21 11:49:22

Dude, calm down, take a deep breath and do some research - kmawv8 MU - 3/21 11:52:22

unlike you, his posts are calm and well-reasoned (nm) - zounami MU - 3/21 12:22:48

Calm and well-reasoned? - kmawv8 MU - 3/21 12:57:26

you've come around - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 3/21 11:34:14

He's young, but has a lot of coaching experience - kmawv8 MU - 3/21 11:35:46

My estimated BAC that night - Eggs MU - 3/21 11:35:32

Same boat with you(nm) - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 3/21 11:47:10

A humble and honest post - Nohawks KC - 3/21 11:41:56

haha - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 3/21 11:35:53

It's a very similar resume. - kmawv8 MU - 3/21 11:34:07
