[QUOTE="RamblinRed, post: 549803, member: 1776"] Keep in mind that Pastner was hardly Mbob's first choice. He was probably more like 5th or 6th or 7th. First call was to Chris Mack who had no interest in the GT job. Then it started to come down to Bryce Drew and Jeff Capel. Drew was very close to coming (reportedly had verbally accepted) but ended up at Vandy when they came at him late and outbid GT. They reached out to at least a couple of others including Cuozo Martin who never signed his contract with Cal and couldn't get anyone to bite so eventually hired Pastner. I think Pastner's vision is similar to early Hewitt years. Good, but not great talent that plays well together. But Pastner right now isn't getting enough of the 4 star type talents Hewitt got his first 5 years. The 09-10 team is all about expectations. I even posted on another board at the time to appreciate the 23 wins as that wasn't the norm at GT, but don't let it mask the long terms issues. Fans had very high expectations for that team and it never really lived up to them consistently. [/QUOTE]
