Message: [QUOTE="bmayuc, post: 4350097, member: 493"] The guy can recruit - we know that. The guy can develop players - we know that. The big questions continues to be - can he manage a roster? Can he game plan and coach in-game? Big TBDs at the moment. I'll make two observations: 1. The talent he chose to bring in via transfer and recruiting has me encouraged he is self-aware and looking to improve at least in the case of roster construction. Bringing in this 3 star recruit for an obvious 10-11-12 roster spot. Bringing in Joey Calcaterra(sp?) a combo guard/shooter who probably is a 10-11-12 roster spot guy. This is roster building not talent stockpiling. I like it. It encourages me. 2. The transfers were well-conceived and seemed to fit actual roles and have thought behind them not just recruiting for pure talent. 3. The re-orientation around 4 out 1 in offense. This shows willingness to evolve with the times that is just critical for a coach to figure out. I'm encouraged, but he needs to continue to grow as an in-game & in-season coach as well this year. I trust. But lets see it. [/QUOTE]
