Bartow, Anderson, and Bill Clark showed us in their first two years (one for Clark) to what Watson Brown, Callaway, McGee, M. Bartow, and Mike Davis did in their first couple of seasons. You could make an argument to include Haase in the latter group, as he only feasted on a terrible schedule, mostly lost to all high quality teams/tournaments that we played in, and hung his hat on what's looking to be a fluke tourney run in 2015.. However, I think he turned into a decent, not great, coach after four years here, so it'd be a bit unfair to include him in the latter group. He was also a good recruiter and program manager, so that gets him some brownie points.

allll that to say basically that the really good ones typically show you something in year one and especially by year two. We'd need a conference championship and/or a tourney appearance with a win next year to erase the disaster that was this season.

And they say Davis was the worst tournament coach. Umm no that would be Haase outside of one magical year lol. And what coach in their first year got swept by FIU.

You can't go "No, this coach was the worst outside of that year he won it all and a tournament game against a #3 seed!" Lol, how does that argument even work

One can hang is hat on a final four appearance as a HC.

Who has the highest winning percentage at UaB usually does it for some. Lol

Or things like last ranking appearance, number of guys drafted, top 25 wins, top 50 wins , maybe apr, or even Power5 wins for some.

Best school record got broken by a soft record but that too.
