Cannot DISAGREE with you more.

Tubby Smith brought that program from the basement to averaging 20 wins a season. The season before he arrived they went 9-22. His first season, 20-14. Now, he will never win a title at that program, but the Gophers seem content with 20 win seasons and there is nothing wrong with that.

Tubby is a good coach and more importantly a good person.

What kind of person Tubby Smith is, has no bearing upon whether or not
he is a good coach. As a coach, MEDIOCRITY is the summit to which
he can apsire. And whether you've forgotten, or whether you didn't
hear, the Gopher adminstration and fans were all aglow with their
predictions of how Tubby was going to put them in Big 10 title
contention, and bring the NCAA bids and wins. He has not,
and CANNOT do so. Why? He doesn't have the ability. If the Gophs
are satisfied wtih that, more's the pity for them, but it's NOT
what they expected, though lord knows HOW they could have expected
more.
