Of course, that is pure speculation on your part unless you are a confidant of Mark Coyle. I think the assumptions on this board that morph into accepted fact distort almost everything about the program.
I voted B, because there is no evidence of A. I could range from B+ to B-. There are a pile of variables. Going into this season if I was told that we would get virtually nothing from Curry, and lower than expectations from McBrayer and that we would make it to Saturday in the B1G Tournament and win an NCAA game, I would take it in a heart beat. If you would have told me they would be a get well game and confidence builder for an 0-7 team, Rutgers, Nebraska, and Boston College, I would have been pissed off. If you would have told me that Gabe and Daniel would play pivotal roles on a winning team, I would have been grateful. All of them happened and in the overall scheme of things, I think they exceeded expectations.
Not much has been said about the assistant coaching transitions. I don't know enough about the execution of the game to comment insightfully on them, but one has to think that two major staffing changes had to have had an effect on the season. People on the board who know more say the coaching and the strategy have been better and it likely took a while for some of that to settle in, which can contribute to why they played much better the last few weeks of the season than earlier.
I would feel much better about the future if we had a solid recruiting class already signed but we don't. But there is still time, and the recruiting game has changed enough that spring recruiting doesn't have to be desperation.
The B is realistic for now if not optimistic about the immediate future.
