Message: [QUOTE="SWC75, post: 2981631, member: 289"] I haven't made up my mind on this subject so it doesn't need to 'change'. The issue is: do coaches over the course of their careers go from good coaches to bad coaches? Recruiting is a separate issue- no one would say Coach K has become a bad recruiter. With JB the issue seems to be recruiting to fit your system over getting the best possible basketball talents. The issue here is: do coaches stop making in-game adjustments as they get older? Izzo is no spring chicken himself. People think the Boeheim zone never changes but there are variations of it. he started using his current offense after coaching with D'Antonio in the Olympics and K started using zone after coaching with JB. I'm just not sold on the idea what an old coach can't adjust or make good in-game decisions. or that a young coach would be better at. [/QUOTE]
