Of course. The national title is going to outweigh anything. And Lemonis would only need to get to 1 more NCAA Tournament to match Stricklin's 3. However, I'm not convinced that 5 more years of Lemonis would have a better SEC winning percentage than Stricklin. He might.

Either way, it's clear that our standards aren't as high as the what an elite program's standards should be. "If we give him 10 years, Lemonis will have a better resume than a guy who got fired from Georgia!" OK, so what? That will be true for virtually any coach we would plausibly hire.
