Are these his last four finishes at W&M?

Not even close. Seahawkhoops absolutely cherry picked to phrase his argument. See above post. lol

I did look at the entire body of work, and it's all over the place. Yes i picked the most extreme bounces, but the fact of the matter is, he has been super inconsistent. If i was trying to intentionally "cherry pick" i wouldn't have posted the link to his entire career record. Even if you take the last 6 years which includes 3 20 win seasons, he followed it up with 3 seasons barely over .500 as a whole.

I get it, you like what you saw and you definitely saw him coach probably more than any of us on this board. But, You can't tell me for one second that inconsistency wouldn't have driven us nuts. We all agree that we need D to win, his teams have not show to deliver that either. Not playing good D contributes largely to inconsistency. Offense comes and goes even with good teams, but good defense stabilizes that.

All of the criticisms are fair. This is why we all have opinions. End of the day, whoever they hire I want success like all the rest of us. I like him as a coach and think he could bring that back to the Dub. Others think other coaches could do it better, they may not be wrong.

The speculation discussions intriguing across the board. So far, we have one source in here stating Shaver has showed significant interest, a couple others have said they know Siddle would be interested if contacted but we don't have anyone saying he has/hasn't been in communication. With Byington, it's 100% speculation at this point because nobody has said one or the other whether he's interested or not.
