– There has been alot of talk lately about McCarney having a worse in-conference record then Jim Walden. I thought it would be more accurate to compare apples to apples.
Here is a breakdown of how Jim Walden and Dan McCarney compare in conference games against the same competition. I think you have to throw out the Texas schools, because Walden never played them.
Jim Walden
