Buzz's resume wasn't thin. It was thick with mediocrity and failure. That's what made it horrible such a horrible hire (and what made Gregory such an awful hire at GT).
Kansas hired Roy Williams and he had no head coaching resume. Sometimes that means nothing - you want to get guys with huge upside, and get them as close to starting as possible (so you get the vast majority of their careers). What you want to avoid is hiring the guys who have proven they have no upside.
I don't disagree on the big potential upside on Manning. But, after 4 years in the wilderness, can you take the chance?
