Message: [QUOTE="HtownOrange, post: 2903721, member: 622"] I respect your opinion yet I believe you left out a major factor. JB has a system he has installed, he has a prototypical player in mind. Most kids will not fit his system. Add to that, most high level kids will not make the grade at SU, which enforces academics better than most colleges. JB was getting great recuits in the 80's and 90's and we never lacked talent. As for being top 5 year in and year out, I agree, JB's system is designed to be different from most and make other adjust to his style of game. This is his advantage in the post season as most teams never see his system in a game. ACC teams will learn the system and be more capable of beating it than non-ACC teams because they see the system combined with Duke, UVA and others mimicking it. Being ranked in the top 5 periodically is tough enough, let alone year in and year out. [/QUOTE]
