He's built himself a nice 30 win program but 1 Final Four? Of course maybe I should say that's a big deal since Painter has never been to one. During the game they talked about why he never left Gonzaga. He said you don't mess with happiness 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said you don't mess with happiness Relatives in Seattle and surrounding area. My cousin went to Gonzaga. Visit the region couple timex every few years. I get the idea of finding a place where you can be a big time college head coach without people expecting you to be one. In some ways jealous of his balance. Until he wins a title though....he's a guy that delivers tons of wins without anything else. Maybe a Henson, Keady, Huggins....shoot even a Sampson type.

Which in my brain says he chose safe. Nothing wrong with that at all. Just never been a fan of safe guys. We'll see if his approach ever gets him to the top.

I probably watched 15 minutes of the game and saw Smith shoot ne shot which he hit. It was one of those turn around 15 footers that luckily went in.

NCHoosier32 Posted December 3, 2020 Report Share Posted December 3, 2020 i respect Few about as much as any coach i can think of. he could have jumped so many times to so many places for more money, higher profile, whatever, but he stays at Gonzaga and takes them from little known to Cinderella, national contenders. i respect that way more than jumping at the next opportunity like so many up and coming coaches. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's also shooting a robust 46% from the foul line. Justin always had a nice touch when it came to shooting the ball.

We have seen a few caches who could have went to bigger places but stayed at their mid major jobs, Mckillop at Davidson, Byrd at Belmont, Kreese at College of Charleston. those guys decided that they were happy where they were at and were able to win at those places. Obviously they weren't driven by money or prestige and stayed where they were happy. Some don't want to worry about a lot of things besides coaching basketball. At these top schools you have to worry about dealing with Alumni and boosters and the pressure of winning fast can be overwhelming. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IU Scott Posted December 3, 2020 Report Share Posted December 3, 2020 Saw where Illinois St beat a D3 team 173-95. This is the 4th most points ever scored by a D1 team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
