[QUOTE="lv20gt, post: 796265, member: 2299"] I don't think we really have any way of judging the ceiling at this point. The first job Pastner had when taking over was to build a team to get back to the NCAAT. He's done that. Not the smoothest, nor the quickest, but he achieved it in a pretty reasonable timeframe. Next step isn't a one year thing but rather proving that he has the program at the level of being a consistent NCAAT team to the point where we should have reasonable expectations of making the tournament regardless of roster turnover. We really haven't had a chance to do that and will either this year or next to some degree. That takes recruiting from a "take the best you can and adapt" to "have a plan and be able to recruit to that plan" phase. Now without having too much of an idea of exactly what Pastner wants to do going forward, it's hard to judge how the recruiting fits long terms. I do like the seemingly consistent focus on having multiple ball handlers. On the other hand our big man recruiting still seems sort of get what we can rather than having a particular style that we are looking for. So I don't know what his ceiling is nor do I think we've enough evidence to say he's reached it. Which is the second best case behind knowing the ceiling and it being a national championship in my opinion. [/QUOTE]
