[QUOTE="RamblinRed, post: 291735, member: 1776"] Pretty scathing article from Gary Parrish on NC ST. [URL]http://www.cbssports.com/college-basketball/news/this-should-temper-wild-expectations-for-nc-state-i-wouldnt-touch-that-job/[/URL] here’s what one second-tier candidate told me Thursday: “I wouldn’t touch that job. If making four NCAA Tournaments [in six years] gets you fired midseason [in your sixth year], it’s not a good job to take if you already have a good job.” That seems to be the consensus in the industry. If you have a good job, don’t mess with the NC State job. That’s probably why NC State, last time around, ended up hiring a television analyst who’d been fired from [URL='http://www.cbssports.com/collegebasketball/teams/page/BAMA/alabama-crimson-tide']Alabama[/URL] two years earlier. Mark Gottfried and Jim Larranaga got hired 17 days apart at NC State and Miami back in 2011. When this season is over, Gottfried will have made four NCAA Tournaments and two Sweet 16s. And he got fired two days after Valentine’s Day. Meantime, even if Larranaga makes the [URL='http://www.cbssports.com/collegebasketball/ncaa-tournament']NCAA Tournament[/URL]this season, his first six years at Miami will amount to three NCAA Tournament appearances and, more than likely, two Sweet 16s. And Larranaga has a contract through 2022 that nobody has even thought of buying out. [/QUOTE]
