FINE, IF UNINSPIRING
10. TOM CREAN, Georgia
It's not that I don't think that Crean, the former Marquette and Indiana head man, is a good coach I do it's that this hire is kind of a weird fit. Crean has spent the majority of his coaching career in the midwest, even if he did end up recruiting nationally more than he did within state borders by the end of his time at Indiana. Recruiting Georgia, and specifically Atlanta, is complicated, but it can be quite fertile if done correctly. Figuring out how to navigate the state will be the key to whether or not Crean outperforms his predecessor, Mark Fox.
