stunk it up at Florida (fired of course)
you know he wasn’t fired right? He also went to the elite 8 and had a winning record in the NCAA tournament.

At Georgia, he isn't lighting it up yet either
Georgia is better this year than they have been in a while. And better than any year they had from his predecessor.

That is correct but the fan base wanted him gone and Florida didn't try to keep him On your second part, the rest of the story. 1 NIT appearance 1 Elite 8 as you mentioned 2 years of no tournament at all and 3 years where he won 1 game in the NCAA and lost the second game. Not remotely impressive!

I will give you another coaching comparison...not in basketball. Curley Hallman built his reputation at Southern Miss on a relative unknown guy at the time by the name of Brett Favre. Of course, LSU hired him for beating FSU in a huge upset, etc. McMahon built his reputation on Ja Morant in an mid-level conference. I bet Morant wasn't heavily recruited and he fell in McMahon's lap just like Favre did into Hallman's lap. If you dig deeper, there is no evidence that Hallman was ever a good coach nor McMahon will be either. Sometimes...you just get lucky!
