... Milan Brown was introduced as head coach.
I was reminded by this by the Facebook "memories" function. Apparently to mark the occasion, I wrote "May your tenure last more than 9 months, and yield more than 9 wins"....

SK and BN both had rocky first years and both have been credited with turning the program around. SK in the wrong direction and BN in the right direction. Of all the coaches since RW, Milan was the only one I had more than a handshake with and I did enjoy talking with him. He brightened up and seemed tickled pink someone would be a fan of the program and want to talk basketball with him. I hope he gets another shot as a head coach.

While I am optimistic for future seasons, it's a little early to say Coach Nelson has turned the program around

I can't say at this point that BN "has turned" the program, but I do feel he "is turning" it around...and he is in the early stages of a long term project. That is not just semantics. I hope he can get this done.

He hasn't actually turned it around yet.

He doesn't get credit from me until he exceeds what was on the floor the 4 years before he came (with the exception of 10 days in March of 2016). We'd like to think he'd do better but it remains to be seen; and, of course, last year was worse.

No one, besides maybe BBC, has insinuated Nelson has turned things around.
