Message: [QUOTE="Bone Dog, post: 5313809, member: 12088"] I have long thought Lindsay is a top coaching talent, and she deserves a ton of credit. But she also seems not entirely to have figured out how to coach players for 4 years. Rayah was her only success in this regard, and I think the relationship was starting to fray by senior year. Lindsay inherited a mediocre program at USC and turned it around on the basis of winning the lottery with Juju's recruitment. Besides her and Rayah, it's been transfers all the way around. To build a great program, as opposed to occasional great teams, she will need to do more than this. It's almost like there are two paths a coach can take, one ending up where Geno and Tara and Dawn and Muffet did, the other ending up where Kim and Brenda and Cori are. Both can count as success, even though the actual experience of the players is strikingly different. [/QUOTE]
