Message: [QUOTE="SaltineW, post: 5749287, member: 11014"] The reality of college hoops is that most programs have to remake their roster ever season. With GMAC, maybe he is a rare coach who is looking for certain characteristics which will allow him to develop a player for multiple seasons. This likely means not always targeting top talent - which is a major departure from the way the program used to operate back in the day (older fans like me remember the days when guys like Derrick Coleman or Billy Owens level 5-stars would flock to SU because thats how strong the brand was back then - a brand built on the backs of the Dave Bings and Louies & the Bowies of the past. GMAC is targeting players who leave it all on the court. We know that much. He also values character and respect. A lot of prospects dont really fit that mold. I'm trying to consider all of this as this year's portal bedlam unfolds. Times have really changed. SU needs a collective. [/QUOTE]
