Message: [QUOTE="Townie72, post: 2372735, member: 780"] That, Bills01, is my point. It's easier to win with a highly stable team filled with upperclassmen (e.g., Villanova) This team appears to have some good players ... some interesting pieces. But it is young and few have played together a lot. What JB is able to do with them is the true measure of coaching acumen. Let's see what happens after mid-February. There is going to be a slow start. Even JB may not be able to build them into an effective team. But if anyone can do it, he can. But they are going to have to do it his way. And there are going to be some egg shells broken in making this omelet. Nobody on that team wants to win more than JB does and some aren't going to like his tough minded approach. (Coaches and fans) There's going to be on-court and off-court criticism maybe at post-game interviews e.g "If I had anybody else I could put out there ...". There's going to be players in JB's doghouse. [/QUOTE]
