Message: [QUOTE="pj, post: 2080568, member: 2524"] Ollie's assets - character, NBA career, liked and admired by everyone -- are irreplaceable. If there are defects to his coaching, they can be addressed by upgrading the assistants. Even JC was helped by Blaney. Maybe KO can find another quality head coach looknig for an easier gig to help him. However, I'm inclined to the view that the problems are the result of sanctions leading to two successive weak / low-IQ recruiting classes, a partially filled roster also due to recruiting sanctions, plus the spate of injuries. I think KO and the program rebound in a big way the next two years. In high-level competitive athletics, the line between wins and losses can be quite small. You don't need that many things to go wrong to turn a top team into a loser. We've had plenty of things go wrong. Let's give KO a chance to have things go right again. [/QUOTE]
