I agree with this to some extent, in that it does show the difficulties that a coach has here. To be successful here, a coach has to improve the quality of athletes. All coaches at this level can X and O, the good ones are the ones who can recruit. Players win games. What the reporter should...

Completely agree with this. Smith has really changed my mind in watching his team play. Give Musselman a call so you can do your due diligence, but then get Smith locked up.
