Message: [QUOTE="HuskyMJ, post: 3827860, member: 2096"] Well that is a debate you hear about often. Should a coach be rigid in the systems they run, or should they adapt their systems to fit their personnel best? Sometimes when coaches inherit bad teams it is great reason to run their systems because the team would probably be bad no matter what, so you may as well get them acclimated now. When you get a job like Mississippi State which had a lot of returning players with talent, it is fair question to ask whether you insert your preferred systems right away or do you gradually do it and maybe play a little differently to take advantage of the strengths of your roster. You can blame the players for not running her offense well but in college I tend to look at coach over players because coaches get paid well, college players are not professionals. If a system is not being run well it is valid question to ask why you should be rigid in running it maybe until you get your preferred players on campus. Also, some of NMPs own recruits, not the ones Vic signed, barely play. Caterrion Thompson the grad transfer only played 3 minutes last night. Charlotte Kohl didn't play, and KNisha Godfrey a high schooler who just enrolled early played 4 minutes, but not playing big minutes like the guard at Oregon State or some other of the high school enrolees. So you could surmise Vic's players are still her best options over the players she has brought in in a short recruiting cycle. [/QUOTE]
