RE: I agree. Except I don't think Capel was atrocious at Oklahoma ...
Right, but the elite 8 he went to was because of Blake Griffin. Here is his coaching history with Oklahoma:

Oklahoma (Big 12 Conference) (2006–2011)
2006–07 Oklahoma 16–15 6–10 T-7th
2007–08 Oklahoma 23–12 9–7 T-4th NCAA 2nd Round
2008–09 Oklahoma 30–6 13–3 2nd NCAA Elite Eight
2009–10 Oklahoma 13–18 4–12 T-11th
2010–11 Oklahoma 14–18 5–11 8th

So he was almost .500, did pretty well the next year, Blake Griffin, and then 2 sub .500 years.

That's not to say he hasn't done well with USA Basketball or Duke, but I just wouldn't have a lot of confidence in him from his tenure at Oklahoma.

Either way, it'll be interesting to see what ASU does.
