LOL, no worries..   5 FF and 3NC's  yet quietly seem to just go about our business and somehow still sneak up on some folks.

You guys have been blessed (?-jk) with a tremendous coach for a long, long time.  He has done a fantastic job building and keeping you guys relevant and a major player over decades.  We have had 4 coaches since 1969 when JB started and we have had less turnover than most.  Jack Kraft, (took team to FF with Howard Porter and lost to UCLA with Wooden and Sidney Wicks), Rollie--- 2nd best coach Nova has had, Steve Lappas-- squandered one of the most talented teams and players in Nova history in Kerry Kittles, and our GOAT  - Jay (now been there for 19 years).  BTW, Jay and JB seem to have a really good relationship--particularly through USBA.

There is absolutely no substitute for continuity and the coach being a major part of the "brand".

These types of topics are interesting.. everyone has their own point of view on why teams are or aren't at certain levels.  I love when the whole "who is a blue blood" discussion gets going.  That gets folks fired up.

BTW, didn't mean to comment so much on your board, I will shut up now!
