i think the thing that sets this team apart

[orangehomer]

is that the vast majority of college teams have a decision to make, do I recruit "athletes" or "players". I look at a team like Miami, they have recruited athletes that aren't particularly good basketball players, versus a team like notre dame, that has basketball players that aren't particularly great athletes. our team has athletes that are players that are ready to play a chess match every time out. basketball has a lot more to do with than who can run fast or jump high. it also has more to do with than just being skilled. it is an ability to continuously compete, and the ability to indefinitely adapt. we will lose games, and may or may not make a deep run, but this is a special group and it has caught the national eye.
