opportunity to be great at Wisconsin. And that was only because Wisconsin had an interim head coach they didn't intend to retain, and Rick Majerus pulled his name from consideration leaving Bo Ryan as the only remaining candidate. But definitely if he hadn't coached at Milwaukee he would not have been seen as a viable option in the coaching search.
There is only one major program in NCAA history so stupid to actually hire someone directly from D2, and while it was obvious that was going to go poorly I don't think even the most pessimistic could have envisioned how poorly it actually went. It would certainly be a cruel joke if the second instance of a major program trying that happened to be the same one that had their program ruined for doing so.
