Message: [QUOTE="ForCuseSake, post: 4191671, member: 266"] I agree that patience is in order. I wonder how difficult it will be for Gait, or any other college coach, to implement a free flowing (dare I say run n gun) offensive philosophy.. Youth players become so specialized at very young ages in today's game that I think it'll be difficult to find guys with well rounded skills to facilitate that style. It's probably the thing I hate most about the game today - how over-coached it is and how specialized players become. Also - Good luck running a fast paced offense without a stable of top notch face off guys or hope the shot clock gets further reduced to 60 (or 45!) seconds. I really hope Gary is successful in bringing back the traditional Syracuse up tempo style. I think he's facing a strong headwind with how the game is currently taught at the youth/club levels.
