JAB built the program (although, at the same time, college basketball has evolved to an almost completely different beast). Just because a program is a name program doesn't mean that it is immune to being made inconsequential. Changing coaches, especially a legend like JAB is never going to be easy. It took Indiana a few years to be relevant again after transitioning from Bobby Knight. Louisville bounced right back with a big name coach after the last few years of Denny Crum. Look at Michigan after Steve Fisher. If JAB retired in 2004, does the Melo Center get built? [/QUOTE]
