Bill Belichick was nobody before he was The Hoody. I know you don't understand what I'm saying yet, but check it...
He was your avg. coach before New England. 8-8 record in the NFl. Decent, nothing special. Definitely not the "genius" people consider him to be today. Then he got to NE with some real talent, transformed the culture and won 3 SB's, with each SB team Top 5 in defense.
Obviously that's football, but there's some parallels to be made.
Can someone tell me what team he coached before?

Might as well be on there too. As much as I was surprised by the hiring and would have preferred someone else, Mike Brown seems like a good guy and a hard worker. I know that doesn't buy you anything, and time will tell whether or not he was a good choice for the job, but I feel like as a fan I will always throw my full support behind coaches/players that work hard and are down to earth, good people. That's why I will always be 100% supportive of VT football and why it kills me to see guys like Dan Snyder and Peter Angelos owning my other teams

i'll give him 2 years, i mean the lakers made the finals in mike dunleavys first season as a coach so anything can happen, if he can get the guys to play defense and play hard anything can happen. they got one more title run left in em in my opinion.

He coached the Browns. I mean there are a lot of examples like that of guys who came out of nowhere and ended up being HOF coaches. Hell, Phil himself was completely unheralded before Chicago. Joe Gibbs was nobody before he won 3 SB's with the ********. Pete Carroll sucked $*# in the NFL before he built that dynasty at USC. You never know. Brown has more of a track record than those guys though so he's kinda more of a known quantity, but it'll be interesting to see how he meshes with these pieces/personalities.Originally Posted by AG 47

Ok, this post won me over. Count me in supporting Mike Brown.Originally Posted by gangsta207therevolution
Hes not a "brotha" but hes a strong black male and thats signifigant as far as not having been a NBA player and getting a second chance. \Originally Posted by Maximus Meridius

He and Alvin Gentry are great for that cause.
Terry Porter is just a bad coach though.
Alvin Gentry and Mike Brown have had legitimate success and overachieving on ALL yes I said ALL of the teams they have coached.
Knowing what we know now about the players and situations they have been placed into.
Im not a "Lakers fan" ( more so into the artesrty of Kobe) but this is the best move they could have made imo.
Sloan was not coming to LA. and Rick Adleman and Mike Dunleavy are not anymore successful than Brown is.
Sure Dunleavy and Adelman have made the finals ( Adelman more than Dunleavy and Brown) but lets be real about the situations.
Portland underachieved because of Adelman
Dunleavy was a byproduct of Riley having put together a team that needed to simply adjust to playoff basketball without Kareem + Riley being a little bit burned out.
But
If Pau is still on the team......

Is Mike Brown a better coach than Tom Thibodeau?
Not sure what to think about Brown. I mean he will be a positive influence on guys like Artest and Bynum.
