He wouldn’t be good.
Hey buddy...you know a good portion of this thread is just you and insta basically hugging eachother, right?
You do quite fine Sad.@GhostOfMatchesMalone here to say something outlandish and insensitive in 3…2…1…
Not many on here have been huge on that. Maybe a small minority. I'm not hyped nor against him. Will say it's not from lack of effort. At least he is trying and not as eccentric as the last guy. You are basically bringing TOS topics to this board.How? Thought we just hired Saban 2.0 as our football coach???
Todd Golden's Record coaching at Mighty San Francisco, 57-36 (.613) and is 23-22 (.511) in the power-house West Coast Conference.
~ He's replacing an incompetent Mike White that went 142-88 (.617) playing in the SEC.
San Fran made their 1st NCAA since 1998 as a 10 seed, and then went 1 & Done to Murray St. Todd played his college ball at St. Mary's, but at least he's a probation-Pearl protege....
He left Pearl in 2017 to become an assistant on San Francisco's staff under then-coach Kyle Smith. Golden learned under noted analytic maestro Kyle Smith, who is now the coach at WashSt. Smith left S.F. to become the head coach at Washington State in 2019, and the Dons promoted Golden following his departure. (so he won with Smith's players)
So yep, he looks like a fo-sho 'sure thing' to me, so let's guu-goaters.....
I guess they decided that he would be a way better hire than Rick Pit-teen-NO....

Yeah kinda.Well, White left of his own volition so…
So, are you saying that he's winning with some other guys players??? 😉"Golden is about to lead San Francisco to its first NCAA Tournament berth since 1998. He is responsible for San Francisco’s two highest KenPom finishes in the 21st century and three of the top five. He’s only been there three years!
Interesting that your criticizing, in jest, his one and done when thats all MW has ever done multiple times with his own recruits that were MUCH more highly rated. Of course MW couldnt even do that multiple times aka NIT.
You trying to equate the situations is cute, but absurd.
Thats not surprising, however, since the facts that truely mattered never bothered you any more than a politician pushing an agenda.
Vast ignorance looks to be your forte on this.
MW has never gone 1 & Done in any tourney, ever, regular season or post season.
And just a FYI, MW's teams have gone to a post season tourney all 7 years.
NIT
4 NCAA's, plus projected to go when Co-V cancelled.
NIT
Never a losing season as a HC, while he's a 3 time CoY in 3 different conferences.
MW is the only B-Ball HC in UF history to never have a losing season, and to make a post season tourney every year.
Now you need to go review the roster when he went to the E-8.. I said MW hasn't never done better than 1 win WITH HIS RECRUITS, you all-star.
Well prior to being the head coach at USF he was the assistant coach so he’s recruited all these kids so it sounds like you didn’t know that or haven’t done your research.So, are you saying that he's winning with some other guys players??? 😉
Where did I say that? He was the asst coach so I’m sure he had a hand or was involved in much of the recruiting of these guys. A little bit different than what you were basically suggestingSo now it's the assistant coach that get all of the recruiting credit?
I'm fine with that btw....
He's been an assistant there, so he most likely played some role in recruiting these kids plus this is year 3 for him...So, are you saying that he's winning with some other guys players??? 😉
Pearl really likes Golden....Bruce Pearl on Golden
Bruce Pearl gushes over Florida hiring former Auburn assistant Todd Golden
Todd Golden was an assistant under Bruce Pearl for two seasons at Auburn. Now he's Florida's new head coach.www.al.com
Nice comments, but since Pearl is a known liar and cheater I take anything he says with a grain of salt.Bruce Pearl on Golden

I’m hoping those aren’t some characteristics that Golden picked up from Pearl.Nice comments, but since Pearl is a known liar and cheater I take anything he says with a grain of salt.
Hopefully he doesn't sweat like Pearl either.I’m hoping those aren’t some characteristics that Golden picked up from Pearl.
By year 3 a coach has his own recruits.So, are you saying that he's winning with some other guys players??? 😉
What was it Pearl did at UT? Held a bbq at his house? Whoooaaa.Nice comments, but since Pearl is a known liar and cheater I take anything he says with a grain of salt.
It was more than the barbecue, if you do some research. He lied to NCAA and school investigators and admitted other recruiting wrongdoings once things came out. Unethical liar, which has been going on most of his adult life and carried over to Auburn, which resulted in one of his assistants not only being fired but indicted for federal crimes. But of course Sweaty Brucie didn't know anything about that, right?What was it Pearl did at UT? Held a bbq at his house? Whoooaaa.
As much as I love to clown on UT I'm not bothered by that with all else that goes on in NCAA sports.
I seriously doubt Golden learned that trait.
True - But very few are as slimy and unethical as Bruce "The Slug" Pearl. Just a glorified used car salesman.There ain’t no choir boys coaching good college basketball teams…
I think lsu hoops about to get hammered.LSU hiring Murray State's Matt McMahon, so we'll be able to compare the 2 hires over the next few years.
You were right about Trask, hope you’re right againTodd Golden is the greatest hire in UF history....
Insta was definitely right about Trask, but unfortunately he's been wrong about everything else, so we will need lightning to strike twice....You were right about Trask, hope you’re right again
Can't blame the kid for re-evaluating his options. Can't blame White for trying to get his signees to follow him to Georgia. Hopefully, Golden can convince them to still come to UF. Same with all the roster players. Both coaches are going to go after the guys they think can help them win quickly, as they should.GAINESVILLE, Fla. -- The first major blow to the Florida basketball program has landed, with five-star power forward Malik Reneau backing off his commitment to Florida.

The gem of Florida's 2022 basketball signing class has decided to reopen his recruitment following UF's coaching change.247sports.com
Fortunately, if he does go to Georgia, he will be misused until he transfers in a year or two, so we won't have to worry about him beating us.Can't blame the kid for re-evaluating his options.
