To be completely fair, I will forever think that Ron Guenther felt so burned by Bill Self leaving that the primary job criterion he had for the head coach was "he won't leave if he's successful." I think that was a bigger factor than many of us wanted to believe.Really? Has Underwood resurrected it that much? Hope so but it’s hard not to feel this is inflated when Weber and Groce were the best we could do and we seemed to be passed on by target candidates for two cycles.
For Groce, the biggest issue was no one wanted to work for Mike Thomas (and I heard that through a number of sources that I would consider very trustworthy when Thomas kept striking out on coaches). Josh Whitman is certainly NOT Mike Thomas.
