That Underachiever is not remotely comparable to the coaches he named?

I’m not comparing them to Underwood. I demonstrated that what happened in the Loyola game happens to the best in the business.

Dunno. I didnt read it. But would comments from 'a sea of blue' about Calipari taking the Texas job be similar to someone on IlliniHQ suggesting Texas shouldnt be looking at Underwood because it would be a bad choice for  Texas  ?

I’ll bet Mickey Mantle and Greg Luzinski both struck out at least once with the bases loaded.

If you want to accept Tempo's Black & White worldview, I guess.

Oh brother. I think you are letting your anti-Tempo bias get the best of you.

It’s the most predictable thing in message boarding.

Yes, we all know that happens. Underwood's resume is in no way remotely comparable, at this time, to any of those coaches.

“Mickey Mantle sometimes struck out in big situations. Therefore, Greg Luzinski is comparable to Mickey Mantle.”

A person need not study Tempo to form an immediate impression that he lumps things into either/or categories.

I thought I was the ultimate fence-rider? How can I at the same time be black/white and the ultimate fence rider? C’mon guys, you’re confusing my self-identity here.

This is a nuanced distinction you're drawing. Well done.

But separating all things into two sides almost necessitates a fence, doesn't it?

It doesn’t matter if his resume is comparable or not. The message is to not overvalue or undervalue any coach because of one game or one tournament.

That stretch to close out the season and BTT was one of the most memorable and enjoyable stretches in my entire Illini fandom. Underwood took over from Groce and over the course of four years, built that.

If you and Tempo want to dismiss his abilities because of the Loyola game that’s your prerogative. You act like this was the only chance we’ll ever have. That’s pretty understandable given our history. I happen to think we’ll be in the tourney regularly going forward.
