[QUOTE="RamblinRed, post: 939727, member: 1776"] The more I dig into Stoudamire's time at Pacific the more impressed I become with what he accomplished there. He walked into an awful situation. The previous HC (and one of his assts) were fired by the school for helping players cheat to be eligible. Both would ultimately get show cause penalties from the NCAA Pacific was 8-20 the year before he arrived. They had a reduction of 6 scholarships over 3 years (so he didn't have a full complement of scholarships until year 4), was on Probation through 2019 and also had recruiting visit reductions in place as well. This is also a school that is not considered a historically "good" basketball school. He improved the program by alot over his 5 years. The last 2 years his KenPom/RPI ratings were 117/97 120/98 Compare that to his first year 246/224 Or the last 2 years before he took over under the prior coach 227/265 240/253 You have to go back over a decade to find a year in the same range as his 19-20 team in terms of wins. You have to go back almost 15 years 2 find a two year period with ratings as high as his last 2 seasons. I'll also note that since he left Pacific the program has dropped off considerably. This year their ratings are 185/227 and the prior year 293/327 The metrics show a program that was improving slowly, but steadily its first 3 years and then took a big jump in yr 4 (likely at least partially due to all the restrictions expiring).
