Mack has been highly successful at P5 programs - I think he creates the highest “floor” for Vandy hoops. Vanderbilt would make the NCAA 75% + of the time.
Bucky is a winner - he will dedicate his life to turning around Vanderbilt basketball. But he’s yet to coach in the Power 5 and plays a unique style that may not be attractive to 4/5 star players. I believe he has a higher ceiling than Mack but a lower floor.
I also love that Bucky and Drew Maddox have a great relationship - GET HIM ON STAFF!
