Capel Poll:
- Thread starter Sean Miller Fan
- Start date
Should not there be options such as PITT will be a top third program but only because the rest of the ACC was down? Had they beaten wake and split with NC state they would be 8-7 right now and in that position. I chose option 2. I feel that with Duke, UNC, Virginia, FSU, etc., there are just two many top heavy teams for sustained regular season dominance. However, I think he has a higher chance for success in the tourney if he can land more diamond in the rough players that the Dixon/Howland teams never had to get over the hump. I would gladly take a 4-6 seed with upsets to get to Elite 8 rather than regular season success with an early tourney exit.
Is there really much difference between options 1 and 2?
Just write in "Poker" and they'll know what you mean.
I think a top 3rd team is probably the cap for this team under Capel. In time, he will get us there. I guess if he can get this team to the top 3rd of the ACC it is possible that he could convince some higher level recruits to come here, but, that would have to happen first.
I think most fans and most on this board would be happy making the tournament most years. They would be even happier if we would outperform our seed line once in a while.
Anyway, despite the concern of having no recruits for 2021, I still believe capel will get a few players here for next season, whether they are transfers or reclasses.

A ton. Option 1 is like 1-4 NCAAT seeds just about every year. Option 2 is like 5-12 NCAAT seeds most years
He'll be gone after year 5 most likely. If we somehow make the NIT in year 5 perhaps Heather gives him a 6th season to see if Pitt can finally get back to the NCAA Tournament. And because Narduzzi will be canned in 2 years she'll be paying that buyout and dealing with that situation so she might have to hold off on getting rid of Capel until year 6.
But next year looks to be another bad season based on the lack of recruits, the players that have left and still might leave and the fact that Capel's teams always collapse late. So it's probably gonna be for all the marbles for year 5.
DUKE UNC only teams to worry about we just need 1 nice shooter and one big time player to bring us along to the next step then after that I think few bigger recruits for us will come are way.
The average tournament seed under Howland and Dixon is 5. That's without taking into consideration the years they didn't make the tournament. That's not the same as 1-4 every year.
I'm not going to calculate the average tournament seed for every ACC team during that time, but 5 sounds about right. There's not "a ton" of difference.
I don't get the Dixon I and II thing. He's not two people and he's not like Johnny Majors. His career record is what it is. You can say the Howland era and the Dixon era, or the Howland/Dixon era. But saying Howland/Dixon I and Dixon II is silly.
Coach K I: ordinary coach
Coach K II, III, IV, V: HOF coach
Coach K VI better get that get that program straightened out, or he's not going to make the HOF.
What's going on with BoeheimV ?
I'm disappointed in Capel I. Hopefully Capel II is much better.
