[QUOTE="spdrama, post: 992524, member: 3280"] To be competitive at this level a team must be comprised of the right pieces, both quantity & quality, including a floor leader, acknowledged by his teammates as such. GT did not have the right pieces closing out last season and did not have them arriving for this season at the time of CJP’s dismissal. A new coach and his well selected staff, taking over a losing team, did their best, with an available player inventory shortage, to fill out the roster with enough athletic pieces for some early season wins, a few against significantly higher ranked teams that failed to show up with their A games. Those victories have entertained and excited the GT fan base beyond expectation for this season. Losing, always a disappointment, had become even more so. We got to see some of the present pieces show individual flashes of excellence, with enough big ones to register improbable wins. Some fans even began looking forward to post season play. But GT isn’t even close to having the right pieces yet. A respected floor leader has not emerged. Acquiring them is a recruiting work in progress. The coaches’ success on the recruiting trail so far, and the encouragement from the Institute’s President & AD to compete in the NIL wars show promise that next year’s team will have more of the missing pieces. A big step forward to becoming a team that can compete and win consistently at this level is at least one year away. In the meantime overall, I like what I see, will continue to cheer, be disappointed at losses, ecstatic at wins and understand the best is yet to come. Just not this year. [/QUOTE]
