That 76-86 record was at GT. He had to rebuild the program and went from 11 to 21 wins during his tenure.
He went 172-94 at Dayton before that.
They got a guy with experience as a head coach this time. GT took a step back after they didn't renew him.
He wasn't even good at Dayton. Finished 1st and 2nd in the A-10 in his first two years with Purnell's left over players, and then finished 11th, 7th, 7th, 2nd, 7th, and 8th with just one tourney appearance.
GT took a step back because they graduated four senior starters.
