@strombergbt It’s not up to fans to “fix” coaching issues. That’s why Xavier has an AD. And after 4 years of major year end tending losses and a complete lack of improving the immense talent Steele’s brought in, it’s time for the AD to do his job.
@MuskieMusings Marquette used the same logic w Wojo & wasted 4 years before dismissing him. I think Steele’s deficiencies go well beyond his ability to get very talented young men to attend Xavier. His inability to make players better is evident over the past 4 yrs. Time to cut bait.
@Jumpshot8 Compared to you, my basketball knowledge fits on the head of a safety pin. So like I’ve done my entire professional career, I’ll lean on the experts more than my own knowledge.
@XUHype @MuskieMusings Amassing talent is one thing. Coaching that talent to wins is quite another. Steele is very good at getting talent to X. He’s as bad at coaching them to wins. Bottom line - it’s wins that matter.
@TermineRadio Bird and Magic are forever linked in both their era and as winners. Just don’t see either as necessarily transformational or unique vs rest of your list. LBJ isn’t done yet so I’ll wait until his career ends. As of today I say he falls short.
@TermineRadio Wilt & Russell - both transformational for different reasons. Kareem - best all around big man ever. Played C like a guard. MJ - won all his NBA Finals, elevated other players around him, became dominating defender over yrs.
@PeteDominick Been in Bay Area for 3 wks visiting my family. I read your text to my 35 yr old son and my wife and couldn’t stop laughing while doing so. Especially the last line. Great stuff.
@TermineRadio Thx JT for highlighting the Cavs more recently. I’m really digging this no-LBJ Cavs success. Especially since it’s so unexpected. Winning without LBJ and drama. Haven’t had that since the days of Price, Daugherty, Nance, Sr and Ehlo.
