No doubt about it. And his kids would run through a brick wall for him.[/quote]
He's 64-62 in big east games. Never could win a MAAC tournament. He's had good starting players transfer out. But he does seem to be a great guy to be around when he wins.[/quote]
To put that 64-62 record over seven years in perspective, let's look at the seven years prior to Cooley taking over the program. Together, Tim Welsh (23-43) and Keno Davis (18-36) went 41-79 in the Big East, with zero NCAA appearances. After tonight's win, Cooley's Friars are on their way to their fifth NCAA tournament. Pretty good, I'd say.
