Right there with you. I was a big Altman hater at first.

Wasn't sure what to make of the hire at the time, but I knew that first year when we played Duke(When they had Kyrie), that he was going to be a very good coach for us. We actually kept it close and had them befuddled by our press the first 15 minutes of the game. Ended up losing by 20+, but you could see compared to Ernie what a terrific in game coach he was.

Recruiting/Final 4, etc. had no idea we'd get to that level, but it was that first season you could tell he could coach and gameplan in the top tier of college coaches.

Glad I wasn't totally hating on him haha!
