    In response to pennhoops

To paraphrase (or maybe it's a direct quote) the great screenwriter William Goldman: "Nobody knows anything."

As Paul Chrystie and I have remarked often, two of the most logical hires in Penn coaching history were Craig Littlepage (alum, assistant at Virginia) and Tom Schneider (assistant at Penn, head coach of Patriot-winning Lehigh). Neither worked out so well. Fran Dunphy was an odd hire (a lifelong assistant who'd spent one year as an assistant at Penn for a bad team). That worked out very well.

Mike Martin is a good guy, a Brown alum and a VERY hard worker. He's VERY competitive. He could do an amazing job Brown and still not win the League but if he doesn't have success at Brown I suspect it will have less to to with his own abilities than with the difficulty of having success at Brown.
