Message: [QUOTE="Scooch, post: 419055, member: 628"] This is where my 1 1/2-day old theory on diminishing returns in facilities investment comes into play. The Melo Center is state-of-the-art and beautiful, right? Every recruit seems to rave about it, as do current players. So how many recruits is UConn going to land over SU because they build something bigger? It reminds me of the story Eric Clapton used to tell about guitar playing. He said as a kid he wanted to be the "best", which meant playing the most intricate solos. After a while he realized that no matter how technically amazing he could be, someone would always come along and be better. So he quit that approach and focused on playing his "best", meaning with heartfelt emotion and beautiful song craft. No one can "best" that. No one can win an arms race. Just gotta be good enough for what you need to accomplish. [/QUOTE]
