Message: [QUOTE="35kcuse, post: 5731556, member: 10815"] Right, which in a way kinda proves my point. You recruit the agent more than the player in today’s system. Head Coach is the CEO of the program and has to be “good cop” a lot more day to day than they used to. Assistants serve analytical, scouting, skill development, and yes a little bit of personal relationships (but much much less). It’s way less of HC is bad cop and AC’s are good cops. And finally, GM is the person who gets the players, or at least develops relationships with agents and then provides CEO w options (HC). Coaches like Roy Williams, Coach K, etc didn’t leave simply just because of NIL or transfer portal. They left because the system they knew their entire professional careers were completely destroyed and rebuilt in a different functioning way right at the blink of their eyes. And they had no clue (or desire) to learn how to handle it. [/QUOTE]
