Cal has his deficiencies. But it takes a special kind of coach to get young, often egotistical talent to play like a team. Look at Howland and UCLA as to how that can go wrong if you don't have control. Cal also doesn't get NEAR enough credit for teaching guys to play lockdown defense in a short stretch of time.



True, he has done a better job with this squad than he did with Wall and Cousins. He has done a great job getting T.J. to buy into the system.

I don't think he necessarily did a worse job. Had Meeks stayed they would've had that shooter they needed in the tournament that year.

As good as a job he's done this year, he did a great job last season with the group he had. Especially Harrellson and Liggins.
