[QUOTE="I-L-L, post: 2032516, member: 747718"] I agree with pretty much everything you said. The one thing I'd throw out there is that Brad lead us to a 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament in 2020-21, which in and of itself is deserving of coach of the year in the conference. But considering it was only his third season and how bad we were for about a decade before his hiring, that's pretty impressive. Unfortunately, my least favorite coach won it that year and his record would indicate he probably should have. It seems Brad has had a little bad luck on his side when it comes to winning COTY. But I'd bet he cares more about conference titles and deep runs in March than winning COTY. If he keeps doing what he's been doing since coming here he'll get 1 or 2 COTY awards is my guess. But you are correct, there are a lot of factors that go into COTY (or there should be). Painter is a great coach and I think Brad is right there with him. [/QUOTE]
