I totally agree with all that. I just think if Clark beats out Shamburger, I'll take it as an all around positive. The lack of multiple ball handlers has crushed this team the last couple years.

Maybe I wasn't saying it clear enough before, but this hits it on the head and maybe I was mis-reading STL's posts, but the impression I had was that it is believed that Shamburger is good enough to just walk in and help salvage the team. He might be good. He might not. But I wouldn't discount Clark. I don't think it's a given that Shamburger gives the answers. We don't know. He played in a shitty conference against shitty competition. Some of the worst teams Clark played against were probably on par with a majority of the teams Shamburger played. Combined with a new system and a year's maturity and Clark may provide the answers, not Shamburger. And yes, that's a good thing, or I'd hope it is a good thing. We shall see.
