SWSiouxMN Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 Holy Cross, with a 14-19 record, is going dancing. Quote

Either you are confusing SDSU/Johnston with another school or you are trying to make a point that coaches deserve a long time to get their programs successful. In SDSU's first five years of DI, they were 21-7, 19-9, 25-6, 23-7 & 22-11. That's a winning % of 70+ - not very "awful"! 2 Quote

Yep. http://www.gojacks.com/ViewArticle.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=15000&ATCLID=942527 Worst year was his first, when they went 15-12 (2000-01). Since then it's been banner raising, transition, and more banner raising. Quote

Their first year of DI was 2004-5 - they were 21-7 that year. Quote

Siouxphan27 Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 this thread is about who made the tournament this year. just saying.... 1 Quote

I don't get it. The conversation is about SDSU making the tourney...to how long their coach has been there. Nobody gets fired after the transition to D1 basketball so what is your point? Quote
UND1983 Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 Also, how did SDSU get Daum? Kid is 6'9" with a huge wingspan, shoots 3's and has a full post game. Not the fastest kid in world but doesn't need to be. 1 Quote

Awful. Yes, your math is awful, 2008-09 was their first year when transition was done. His transition record 2004-05 through 2007-08 is 33-83. Like someone says who gets fired after transitioning from DII to DI especially when you are an Independent, there was no GWC for basketball during their transition. Quote

Not the fastest kid in world but doesn't need to be. He apparently had several offers, but none by the in-state Nebraska schools. I'm guessing McDermott is kicking himself a little bit over that decision. Quote

Just cleaning some things up on the topic. Someone mentioned 21-7 in 2004-05. Nagy barely survived those transition years. I remember it well. Quote

He actually did Nagy a favor by inadvertently including SDSU's first year as a full D-1 school, it raised his winning percentage from 28.4% to 30.9%. It's not quite apples to apples because Nagy had quite a bit more time at SDSU before the transition, but if you count the four transition years and their first three years of D-1 play, Nag had a 79-131 record for a winning percentage of .376. For comparison, Jones record in that same time frame was 101-121 for a winning percentage of .455. Obviously Nagy had some pretty good years after that, having that Wolters kid blossom didn't hurt, but even if you include the 4th year out of transition for both schools (UND still obviously still having a few games left), Jones still has a higher winning percentage in that time frame, though that was the year Nagy punched his first ticket to the dance without even having come close prior. I'm not saying that one is better than the other, just laying out their records over a comparable time frame. There is no arguing that Nagy struggled big time during the transition and the first few years out of it. Quote

Since Nagy made the NCAA tournament in his 4th year out of the transition, as it appears, and it's obvious that the comments in this thread were made to promote Jones vs. Nagy and their histories, UND should be putting on their dancing shoes Saturday night.

UND92,96 Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 I believe Nagy's .780 winning percentage in nine years as a dII coach at SDSU bought him more time than most coaches would have gotten under the circumstances. 2 Quote
