Since you brought it up I'll use the Huggins example. He's a coach who preaches defense and toughness but he also wants to get off as many shots as possible because he knows he needs to outscore the other team. WVU presses and crashes the offense glass in an effort to get up as many shots as possible with the thought being if you can attempt 15-20 more shots than your opponent you'll usually be in a good spot. To me that's an example of a coach who has figured out a way to excel in all aspects of the game. Now obviously it's not fair to compare a highly accomplished HOF coach to Mick Cronin but let's hope Mick evolves to a point where he can have teams who play offense as well as they play defense, if he does that then I think he'll really be on to something. That's going to take Mick doing some self evaluation and admitting to himself that he's wrong about a lot of the ways he looks at the game of basketball. |

You look at the situation and want to point out all the various reasons why something isn't happening and I look at the situation and point the finger at the guy in charge. Two completely different perspectives, two completely different sets of opinions. Also, you do realize that Mick recruits his own players right? I think you fail to realize that sometimes. |

Or how about his comments the other day about how the players he brought in here early in his career are close to having no place in the current game. Also wvu offense and ours were almost identical in shootings %'s across the board and adjusted offensive efficiency. but since when do facts sway an agenda. |

Also, I don't care about your advanced stats, go talk about them with the birds since that's what they were made for. |

How well their players execute it is a completely different thing. Based on the fact that they're still in the tourney and earned a 4 seed I'd say the execution probably went pretty well. |

And yes I know he recruits the players. Another area I am very satisfied with. He gets very good student athletes. They produced a 30 win season and a undefeated home schedule. 3 more will walk this semester. |

Yet you always do, even when no one is attacking him. You've been posting here long enough to know where I stand yet you're always so infatuated with my opinion of Mick. You think he's the bee's knee's, I think he's pretty good but not great. No amount of long winded, woe is Mick commentary from you is going to change my mind.
I know you're glad I post here Waite, this message board would be a pretty boring place if it was just a bunch of guys sitting around agreeing with each other all the time. |
