Not sure if I 100% agree.  It seems at least half, if not more, of the last 10 NCAA champs were by teams that had 3-4 year program players and not one and done players.  Yes, the one and done players go to dook, kensucky, Kansas, etc.  However, there is a limited number of those type of players coming out of high school.  There is plenty of talent to be found in the "program" type of recruit.

I see that we have very limited inside presence either by posting or driving.  So teams guard the perimeter which affects the quality of shots.  We all know JB recruits to the zone.  He recruits tall, long armed guards and forwards to make the zone more effective.  Problem is that type of player does not really equate to a quick driving guard or a stockier center.  JB recruits SFs and PFs and has SFs play guard positions and PFs play center.  When they go against the traditional team guards who play guard and centers that play center, Syracuse does not match up well.  Our lankier PF/C gets pushed around and/or our SFs/Gs get blown by from quicker guards.
