The three-peat talk was media and program hype.

Our sophomore class at the current time is not capable of producing enough to win at the highest level. Mahaney wasn’t going to help that.
You have one of the first coaches to win back to back titles with very different rosters and in dominant fashion. He then went on a media parade demonstrating his methodology. The narrative built up that what he was doing was different and unique and that the staff is a collection of strategic geniuses and alchemists.

Maybe just maybe this staff happened to land an exceptional assortment of players including a carryover core of a 7’2” unicorn rim protector and a 6’5” do everything PG.

This staff is amazing, but success will always start with having the right players. Evaluation is hard, especially when you’re banking on development and who does/doesn’t have high upside. You win some you lose some and it seems some of that good luck on player selection has evened out a bit. Now the question is how much will he be willing to course correct in the portal.

I’ve liked Burries for 2 years now, interested to see where he goes. We watched him a bit as a sophomore but he’s a bucket.

Pretty interesting that the SEC, given its aggregate performance the last couple of years and bundles of money, only has 3 players on the rosters.
