My standards are realistic. Why would a big time coach come here? It's nice to talk about Shaka Smart, Brad Stevens, or Jaime Dixon, but it's unrealistic.

But all of the guys I listed are very realistic (especially the top three). I think we need to meet somewhere in the middle.

Don't put me in the group that believes those are realistic. But I don't think it's dumb to avoid trying to throw a shite ton of money, which we have, at a guy like Buzz Williams or Gregg marshall and make those guys turn us down. shite, I can think of ten other names that would be better options than Jones.
