[QUOTE="Northeast Stinger, post: 969523, member: 1640"] [B]The[/B] [B]talent[/B] [B]level[/B] under Collins was [B]overestimated[/B]. If the talent had been as good as advertised then comparing tiers of talent in the ACC would make sense and your argument would be sound. No one has to tell me what a bad coach Collins was. But the entire premise of hiring Collins, the rationale of his “let’s have fun” style, and the reason so many on this site defended him to the end, was that he had dramatically improved recruiting, and this level of elite recruiting could overcome a multitude of sins. Clearly, he not only didn’t recruit at as high a level as promised, but, he turned out to not be a very good judge of talent. Not every 3 and 4 star talent coming out of high school ends up playing at their projected level and I think Collins whiffed on more than his fair share. At Temple Collins “appeared” to be a decent coach even though some of us were skeptical. But, having enough good players, many recruited by previous coaches, seemed to cover up his incompetence.
