The Holy Land of Hoops

1. Jay Wright - The Don of the conference.
2. Chris Mack - Gold standard. Committed.
3. Ed Cooley - Was my first choice to be Georgetown's coach. What he's done at Providence is nothing short of miraculous.
4. Patrick Ewing - Legend of the OBE. Nobody in the conference carries the cred he does in living rooms.
5. Steve Wojciechowski - Hired gun.
6. Kevin Willard - He could work his way up this list. Improving.
7. LaVall Jordan - The Butler Way. The right man for that job (just like Ewing was). More charismatic than the next 3.
8. Greg McDermott - Decent at Creighton. Not sure what happened at Iowa State.
9. Dave Leitao - I can see him having the most improvement this year from last season. I believe he'll turn a corner.
10. Chris Mullin - Needs to show more this year. Good player at Golden State. I think he thought the job would be easier.

That's what he is and what he's doing. When Georgetown wins about 3 conference games and looking up at nine other schools in the Big East, then we'll see more spinning, errrr, "trolling" from him. There's a chance they'll be in the basement for, at least, two seasons, IMO.

Besides, there's a "ranking of the coaches" thread from about a year ago.

In Crawfish's crappy defense, there have been some significant changes since last season. (I just held my nose shut upon typing this posting!)

Not true. Many pundits have been critical on Mullin.

His recruiting has been very spotty. Sidney Wilson was seen as this big victory but lets be honest, the kid is a bigtime project who came very late in the recruiting cycle. Mullin should have been full by that time.

Ewing has already shown more in his short time at Georgetown.

So I say without any equivocation... Any Big East list that doesn't have Mullin at #10 is a horrible commentary on the conference.
