    No, Martin didn’t have the fortune of inheriting a program built by Bill Self with one of the best players in the NBA on it

    He got a team built by Bob Huggins though

    Only to the extent you can "build" anything in one single NIT season

    Huggins got Jacob Pullen, Michael Beasley and Bill Walker there in his one season. It was his talent Martin rode early on.

    He is too stupid to see his argument got turned on him.

    Maryland hiring Kevin Willard. Seems like a little bit underwhelming hire.

    I’m aware, but by the time Martin made the Elite Eight three years later, they had one player left from Huggy Bear and no one close to as good as Deron Williams

    I pointed to three years of Self and a perennial NBA All-Star, you responded with one class and one player not in the same universe of talent. You’re right, anyone who sees through that genius-level take is “too stupid” and not the guy comparing Martin to Bruce Weber

    You really can't figure this out. That Duke education is not so great.

    Both Walker and Weber are pretty average coaches. Weber did a solid job at Southern Illinois, but Illinois fell off the map after Self’s recruits moved on. His time at KSt was rather unremarkable. Martin made it past the second round twice in fifteen years as a Head Coach.

    There's no substance to figure out, it's you saying Martin is a bad coach and that deep tourney runs don't prove otherwise then crowing about what an expert-level brilliant argument you made

    Which is what I was saying all along. If Martin is such a good HC he will land a good HC job again. Haven't really seen his name mentioned yet.

    Go back and read my initial post moron. Find where I said he was a bad coach.

    Oh sorry, "he is not very good as a HC" is nowhere close to saying he's a bad coach lol

    Glad you figured out you were wrong.

    Lol nitpicking semantics, always a winner. Let me amend to say your argument is “he’s a bad head coach” + crowing, and that waste of time tangent is now all worth it

    Still on this? It's over.

    Lol

    “You have no argument, you’re just saying he’s a bad coach then fellating yourself”

    “I said he’s a bad HEAD coach”

    “Ok? That doesn’t address anything”

    “It’s over.”

    Have it your way

    That’s a solid hire. He did a great job rebuilding UTC.
