[QUOTE="4shotB, post: 769274, member: 844"] I think this is at the heart of the question when us casual fans start the conversation about evaluating coaches. I think we as fans tend to use the "eyeball test" and the W/L records to make our determinations. The other coaches I think look at it from the standpoint of "did he do as much as he could with what he had?". I think those guys know the answer to that question much,much better than we do. I reflect back to former jobs I had. I have taken over places or positions that were well run and managed before I got there. And some that were the exact opposite. If I had been judged solely on the bottom line, I would have gotten "better grades" for the positions where it was actually the easiest and "worse grades" in spots where I actually made the most improvements/worked harder/faced greater challenges. Management is a lot like coaching - having a good team makes you a better coach/manager. I agree that is the responsibility of both to upgrade personnel over time. You don't stand pat there. [/QUOTE]
