I think talent trumps Xs and Os 90% of the time and that it skews the eye test. If Izzo or Bennett recruited more consistently, it could be scary. That said, Michigan St next year could be epic. Looks like it will be Izzo’s best ever draft classOn balance though, do most college coaches lean towards recruiting or Xs and Os? I'm not sure Self is actually a great Xs and Os guy. Roy Williams wasn't and even said as much. Barnes is not. Pearl is not. Mike White is not. Juwan Howard and Penny Hardaway are not. Boeheim is not.
It seems like you kind of have to dig to find good tacticians in this sport, mostly because it's college and success or failure hinges more on talent acquisition than tactics.
Possibly, but they could have just said put down your sign or we will escort you out, he said no way, and he got escorted outOnly thing I could think of was blocking the view of people behind. Maybe some donors, or just people who paid to watch Kentucky lose and not a sign.
Too bad he wasn't given the opportunity to move a few rows down where there were enough empty seats that he wouldn't have blocked anyone's view or just set it in the empty seats beside him. The other thing is his sign doesn't name Calipari, it could have been about anyone.Possibly, but they could have just said put down your sign or we will escort you out, he said no way, and he got escorted outIt’s funny any way it happened, the natives are growing restless
