It's funny how the opinions on him have changed over the last decade or so. People in Tallahassee love him because he's built a contender out of a team that hasn't been relevant since the early 90s.

He has gotten better with age imo

Good for him. On a side note, I would’ve never guessed he’s 72.

Also: Check out his first three seasons. 14, 19, and 12 wins. Didn’t make the NCAA Tournament until his 7th season. Obviously it’s not an exact comparison to our predicament, but the point I’m getting to is that progress isn’t linear! Some programs turn it around right away and others take some time... that’s OK.

Hamilton should have just went the Jeff Capel route. Finish in last place 2 Straight years, don’t even bother recruiting in 2021 and sit back with a fat extension.. why waste all that time winning and recruiting???!

Jeff Capel- The Model of Consistency, too bad that’s Last Place

He kept his job at Florida state while Pitt, NC State, Wake Forest, Georgia Tech have had multiple coaching changes and are nowhere.

It took a long time to build that program. Not a traditional basketball school and the facilities were woefully outdated (though recently renovated). But they stuck with him and it has paid off.
