Message: [QUOTE="intlzncster, post: 2457883, member: 56"] All or nothing? No, I was just explaining why it wasn't all hunky-dory when JC left. The point of the HOFer thing is you'd expect a drop off, especially in recruiting, when a HOF coach leaves. No matter who you replace the guy with, he will not have the draw that JC did. There's no shame in that. And I haven't claimed all of those things you mentioned, so I'm not sure where you got that. At one point, firing Ollie would have been a blow to the program, given what had transpired, but not as much now. I would think a reasonable expectation of the program would be Gonzaga. I don't consider them a mid major mind you, despite their conference*. If we could do better than that, then fantastic. *as an aside, the AAC is superior to their conference, but it's still not a draw. Nobody [I]wants [/I]to play in the AAC. But because there's more talent, it's tougher to run it. Weird situation. [/QUOTE]
