I think we are arguing different things.  You initially said:
[INDENT][I]JC was unable to distinguish the difference between being diplomatic and being phony [/I][/INDENT]

I replied[I]:[/I]
[INDENT][I]Oh, he could distinguish it, he just didn't ascribe to it with both the officials and the media.   JC was purposeful in his actions.[/I][/INDENT]

So you were saying, he could not distiguish between the two. I argued that he certainly could, he just didn't give a damn, consequences be damned.  It hurt us at times, but I do think it helped on the floor, and by being genuine with the kids, thereby building trust.   It definitely hurt us with the media, perception of the program, opposing fan bases, and of course, the NCAA.

His ability to determine the difference was evidence by his comments on Calipari and Pitino.  He said something along the lines of, "they are both BSers.  One believes his own BS.  The other is a phony."

JC was sharp as hell; he just dgaf.
