Message: [QUOTE="OttoMets, post: 2018687, member: 716"] Agree about the zone argument, 99% of the time, it's the players, not the scheme. There are times, of course, when we could stand to throw out a different look or even switch the defense to account for a player's abilities. I don't think the sanctions argument holds much water, though. On the whole, we got every player the coaches wanted to get; as far as the guys who aren't here, it's not because of sanctions. If someone's got a concrete example of a player we lost solely due to sanctions, I'm all ears, but to me this complaint has been overblown. (And I consider it the choice of the staff to run off Johnson and Patterson in order to move up the penalty; the NCAA can't be blamed for that one.) [/QUOTE]
