[QUOTE="cpf2001, post: 925874, member: 6459"] Hiring from well-run programs is interesting as a strategy. It’s a big change from the sort of “great man” theory of coaching that we had under Johnson and Collins (not saying we hired Johnson using that thought process exactly, but a lot of the support for him has been “we need a genius like him because of our limitations otherwise” and for Collins it was the same thing just flipped - he was the marketing recruiting whiz that we needed to turn things around). Engineering, on the other hand, is about building machines, so if that’s our approach here, I like it. Would love to see some of that $$$ put towards a bigger and better support staff. Maybe spending it on a star OC gives you 20% better results until that OC leaves and you have to hire again; maybe building up the machine gives you just 14% better results but is also more sustainable? Seems worth a shot, since we can’t afford instability or gambling in just one person being a savior right now. My qualifications are taking a bunch of prob/stats courses at GT, and if that’s not enough I would like to formally request a refund of tens of thousands of tuition! 😉 [/QUOTE]
