At the DII level, CMSU is a relative comparable to Kentucky in that they have more resources, better talent, and greater fan support than almost any of the respective programs they compete against. To some degree, Kim enjoyed the benefits of simply out-talenting many opponents in a way that is completely not transferable to him at the D1 level. It would be like taking John Calipari and giving him an inadequate roster, then wondering why he seemed to forget how to coach. That isn’t to say that Kim’s success at CMSU was entirely based on always having better players, but that was certainly a factor and that factor was erased from the equation as the coach at MU.
