We will see in his press conferences and media appearances on his approach to the game (though I'm sure he will never tell the secret sauce to his approach), but something tells me that GMAC way is going to be getting guys that embody the way he played the game and try to gain a competitive advantage with good fundamentals, relentless effort, and a scouting operation to neutralize the analytic and algorithm based programs. I'm sure they will still embrace analytics to help with player shot selection and to design schemes. But I'd expect the GMAC way will be a hunters approach to the games vs being hunted. To be a good basketball program, you either need to be good at being the hunter (outscouting your opponents and responding to the hunted teams adjustments) or respond well as being the hunted (having good systems that establish the conditions to the game and the ability to adjust when your opponent has figured out what you are trying to do). What's going to be fun is when we run into programs that are built on the same concepts of what I think GMAC will bring here 'hunter' mentality and that's when we will start to experience the old Big East rock fights we used too be apart of. You saw Autry try to modernize Syracuse, I think you see GMAC try to modernize the Boeheim way.
