Message: [QUOTE="Fly Rodder, post: 3681915, member: 2133"] I think this is probably my 2nd biggest disagreement with what I think is JAB's defensive philosophy. He is enamored with freakish shot-blockers seemingly to the detriment of other skills because the well-rounded recruits are going elsewhere. And I think it's hard to use a defensive player to control how a [I]good[/I] team plays offense most of the time. At best an elite shot blocker is going to be on the court 30 minutes or so and [U]will[/U] commit shooting fouls that offset whaever the blocked shot advantage is. Fab was Fab, and there is nothing wrong with focusing on having a great shot blocker, but all these center recruits are spurning Syracuse for a reason and it's not because they're not going to get minutes.
