Welcome to The Holy Land of Hoops

...Chris Mack. The guy has his team up to play all the time. Gets his teams to play hard through adversity, and always gets them to over achieve. I hope he stays in the league because he is really one of the best out there.

I'll second that X has good coaching.
Go Xavier.

Lots of great coaches in the Big East, but I'm definitely happy with Chris Mack!

As a Xavier fan, and a huge fan of Chris Mack, I appreciate your statement/opinion. But, as much as I like Mack I'm not quite ready to say he's "the best" in the Big East. I'd definitely say he's "among the best", but as long as Jay Wright and his National Championship is in the league, it's hard for me to give the nod to anyone else. The good thing is that we've got some really good coaches in the league, and we can have the discussion about who is "the best".

After that fart, I'm not going to pimp Jay too much...I'll just keep mty mouth shut.

I do have a lot of respect for Cooley. I feel he does a lot in a small space, and without the caliber of names that some other schools get. He's had a little bit of a letdown with teams in the tourney (I think his teams could have done better at times), but I think he's just a few lucky rolls away from making a serious name for himself one of these years.

There was a point in the 2nd Marq. game when I thought these guys had given up. No Myles, No Ed and no Tre=No wins. Boy was I wrong. Obviously, Mack somehow lit a fire under them and got them to believe. SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET 16 BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We have some great coaches. I just wish Jay had the guts to bench Jenkins like Holtmann did with Martin.

Don't forget Holtmann. Brad Stevens II.

When. He pulls off an upset of North Carolina, people will start to pay attention.
