Some people are under the delusion that you can win with elite talent alone. Even great players need coaching. Mike Dubose had a roster full of 4 and 5 star players in 2000. Went 3-8. Recruiting is one aspect, but only part of the equation. Gotta be able to coach players and manage egos.

Isn't that the point? Kentucky has had great talent, better than anyone else, but they haven't had the great coach to go with it. Cal is a very good coach, but he isn't a great coach. He has every possible advantage at Kentucky, much like Saban does at Alabama, but he always seems to find a way to come up short even with a roster full of NBA players.
