What would KO's resume look like if ....,,

What would his resume look like if "coach on the floor" Bazz left early? The further removed we get from 2014 the more I think Bazz was the driver and the coaching staff passengers along for the ride.

I don't get this. What would 2011 look like if kemba left early? News flash, it takes top shelf players, especially at pg, to win big. Players play. It's always on the players.

Definitely helps if you have a guy who can do this



and definitely if he can do this



KO has not had a playmaker like that who can just walk up and sink a jumper like Bazz did all through 2014. God it was so unfair how often Bazz could just walk up and launch a 3 at the top of the perimeter and it'd go in.

You know he did leave early right?

You realize, of course, that that was after graduating in 3 years. Oh and after a championship and a legendary 11 game run. Right?

This years team allowed more and ones from soft fouls than any team I ever recall.. They played SOFT.

Don't know whether or not you were around to watch the Big East 12 to 25 or even 30 years ago. The game has changed a lot. Under the basket BEast fouls are now technicals and hard old BE fouls will get you tossed today. And I'm not talking Grayson Allen dirt bag fouls either.

I would agree that safety is important and maybe some evolution was necessary. But I think the kids today are coached not to do what was once just a "hard foul" and risk getting T'd up or tossed.

From what I've heard, someone who knows someone told me that KO banned JC from practices and has distanced himself from JC the last couple of years. Granted this is hearsay but it is from someone who knows those very close to the program. Has anyone else heard this?

Let's pray this is not even remotely accurate. I would be sick to my stomach to even learn there was minimal ongoing relationship and guidance. It would be coaching malpractice not to have JC on speed dial.
