Captain Kangaroo Posted January 27, 2015 Report Share Posted January 27, 2015 He wasn't the first, and he won't be the last to utter this phrase:“I've said all along that the only guy that can stop Nick Harney is Nick Harney. He’s so talented,” Calhoun said of the senior. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Z Posted January 27, 2015 Report Share Posted January 27, 2015 Totally agree with Calhoun.Who are the top three college coaches in the country who get the most out of the talent on their team? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hilltopper Posted January 27, 2015 Report Share Posted January 27, 2015 It takes a while for Nick to wear out his welcome. Playing just 1 season at FSU is perfect for him and the coach. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Kangaroo Posted January 27, 2015 Report Share Posted January 27, 2015 Brad Stevens passed the torch to Greg Marshall as my #1.Mike Krzyzewski is over-exposed, over-hyped...but there are a million coaches out there who have great talent and lose. Duke is in the mix every year. And if you look at the NBA, Duke players aren't all that prevalent and mostly 2nd-tier guys like J J Reddick and Trajon Langdon. He's not winning the way Pitino does.I like Sean Miller too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mes102 Posted January 27, 2015 Report Share Posted January 27, 2015 Greg Marshall, Bo Ryan, and the third was a bit tougher for me. I have 4-5 names for that 3rd spot. I may be giving in to the "prisoner of the moment", but give me Bruce Weber. He hasn't had any talent that has blossomed into great or even good NBA players. He just has solid teams. Looking at the state of the Illinois program since he left, and now what he's doing at Kansas State, I'd put him #3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Z Posted January 27, 2015 Report Share Posted January 27, 2015 I have 4-5 names for that 3rd spot.I would be interested in those names too. I'm pretty ignorant to college basketball because I really only follow MAC basketball and some of Akron's ooc opponents. I used to really enjoy it, but I'm starting to miss good college basketball since the MAC has been down for so long. I was impressed with the Jim Larrañaga interviews before the Zips game, he seems to have a great understanding of offense and how to simplify it. It reminded me of Huggins when he was at Akron, I loved listening to him explain his offense. I also enjoy watching VCU games, I think Shaka does a great job. Mike Krzyzewski is over-exposed, over-hyped...but there are a million coaches out there who have great talent and lose.Agreed. I would love to play a game, turn around the next day, switch coaches and see what happens with the same two teams. I thought about that often with Charlie Coles.

clarkwgriswold Posted January 27, 2015 Report Share Posted January 27, 2015 I checked his numbers early in the season and he was, well, being Nick Harney. Looked like he was up and down, taking nights off, etc. I just know my blood pressure while in the JAR has dropped significantly since his departure.

Hasn't blossomed there yet though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hasn't blossomed there yet though.He has great talent on the way, should get there. Nobody more relevant to that subject right now than Virginia's Tony Bennett. Best defensive mind in the game, period. His old man, Dick, was no slouch either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
