Yeah, I mean OJ told me that they walked on campus this good, so its crazy to say he is a good coach, just a great recruiter. Wait, I am confused.
Just because he developed players in the past doesn't mean he developed this particular set of players.
Even if that were true and all of Raji's, Jackson's and Trapani's 1200+ points came this season, who brought them in?
I thought Roy Williams sucks.
He does. Al Skinner also stinks with a chalkboard in his hands. And BC is not UNC. Point?
And were talking about player development while at the school not recruiting them to the school. What's yours?
My point is that the players developed under both coaches. The difference, to the extent that there really is one (Yale, Harvard, URI, Miami) this season is the on court coaching, at which both Al and Roy Williams sucked. Al brought the players in, Al developed them, and Al put them in a shitty offense that allowed them to fail.
You don't don't develop players into an NCAA tourney team in 6 months. You give an NCAA tourney team an opportunity to succeed by giving them a good system. That is what the Don did. It has nothing to do with player development - it is about using the pieces correctly. With a team starting Cahill, that should be blatenetly obvious.
