February 22, 200719 yr AK is doing things right, in starting rebuild the Rebels back. Building a strong relationship with the players Defending the home turf. He has done everything you could ask this year plus some. And that is an understatement. :thumb: Ole Miss will be very dangerous in the SEC tourney, wouldn't really suprise me to see them win the thing, I am not picking that - just wouldn't suprise me. AK -SEC - COY. (imo should be)
February 22, 200719 yr He has done everything you could ask this year plus some. Twice in a row now. Hard to believe the year before the mess went down he lost out on a few low major jobs...

AK -SEC - COY. (imo should be) I dont think they will be that dangerous in the SEC Tourney. They still are a different breed outside the Tad Pad. They may be able to get one win, but I don't see them advancing too far.
February 22, 200719 yr Like Louisiana Monroe and he had someone inside pushing for him. One of a few ADs not happy to see his success... :lol:
February 22, 200719 yr AK -SEC - COY. (imo should be) I think it would be hard not to give it to Billy since they are currently 12-1 in conference.
February 22, 200719 yr I think it would be hard not to give it to Billy since they are currently 12-1 in conference. Seriously, I think I could coach that team and win the SEC..... No way does anyone sniff the SEC COY other than AK....unless they don't win the West....
February 22, 200719 yr I wouldn't mind a resume that included being one of the favorites for Big East and SEC COY in your first two years on the job. I've always wondered how much that one year as a player for Jimmy V changed him. He comes off as a guy that spends time in thought, laughs and cries every day...
February 22, 200719 yr Seriously, I think I could coach that team and win the SEC..... No way does anyone sniff the SEC COY other than AK....unless they don't win the West.... As could you with the 1996 UK team, but the AP and SEC Coaches both still voted Pitino SEC COY. I agree that AK has probably done a better coaching job, but I think if you look at a lot of COY awards its the coach of the best team that often gets the nod.

The job AK has done is remarkable IMO, especially when their best perimeter player left the school after only a couple games...

February 23, 200719 yr Good win for the rebels. I really like this guy as a Head Coach. Rebels. Spelling.
