Message: [QUOTE="pearl31, post: 2445717, member: 1531"] And, more to the point- (and let's not get into the "why is the roster the way it is?" debate here - that's for another thread - this is just about working with the hand you're dealt in the here and now) Shouldn't these coaching performances be regarded relatively? Isn't Tom Izzo, with arguably the most stacked roster in the country and getting shellacked at a good-not-great Ohio St at least as bad as JB, with an iffy roster losing at home by a point to a decent (even w/o the two players) ND? Same could be asked of K/Duke last night w NC St. Expanded further, to a season - Isn't Calipari, Roy, etc, with the rosters they have and racking up multiple losses and getting a middling tourney seed/bowing out before 2nd wknd at least as bad as barely missing the tourney with a significantly lesser roster? I just think fans—and nope, not exclusive to SU hoops—tend to lose perspective in a hurry [/QUOTE]
