Message: [QUOTE="Fly Rodder, post: 2458458, member: 2133"] Coaches are some blend of system guys or just get the best talent and figure it out from there. JB is very much a system guy. His players need to buy into his system and fit it to be successful. It's worked for the most part, but when they don't fit, he can still get at least a mediocre team out of them. Other schools who might not be very system orientated can be a disaster when the talent doesn't pan out. SU has averted that. Sanctions hurt, but SU shot itself in the foot many many times over the last five seasons. I maintain that the coach-in-waiting designation was an incredibly dumb idea in retrospect. Roster management and recruiting has been not good. [/QUOTE]
