1) the mvc (not top 7) isnt the aac...the big south (not bottom 5) isnt the meac..
2) my whole debate point is questioning his knowledge of the x and os..Marshall had 25 years training before taking his 1st job

there is no success meac story

The MVC was top 7 the year Marshall was hired and was basically even with the Big XII for 6th. People forget how good the Valley used to be.

You want to know why there hasn't been a MEAC success story? Because there is one coach who has coached a top 100 MEAC or SWAC team in the 17 year of history of KenPom.

those 20 spots on kenpom are the difference between Steve Merfeld's hampton team (top 120, that upset top 20 unc) and moton, it will be the difference in moton success and merfeld complete failure in evansville

sarcasm aside, even you cant deny the huge risk in hiring him if you are being rational...

im all for risk..but it has to bring some benefit..penny i HUGE risk but the potential upside is crazy ..

moton is huge risk little upside.. if he has ANY success he will be hired away. being the guy to win at nc central and give ecu its first ever "atlarge" bid, he will be gone and seen as a star..
he will at best build a team before leaving , he wont be there long enough to build a program

in comparison to a guy like tubby or sampson. the risk is dramatically less and if they are successful they will stay there and buid the program..similar to what steve fisher did for sdsu
