always thought he was a good coach

He's carved out a respectable career, especially given that Miami and FSU are two places where basketball isn't exactly king.

Had some really good battles with Purdue in the Big Ten/ACC challenge.

Hamilton was ACC Coach of the Year three times ('09, '12, and '20) and winningest coach in program history.

They had a great run as a #9-seed in 2018 NCAA Tournament losing a tight one to Michigan in the West Regional Final.

Good coach, good guy, well-respected - his teams were usually athletic, tough, and physical and always battled for 40 minutes. I liked him.

Good points. I believe FSU's 97-57 win over Purdue in the 2005 ACC challenge is still Painter's largest margin of defeat. That was a rough year without Carl Landry and David Teague.
