The thing I love is listening to the radio here in Austin. The whole mantra they kept their sanity with was Strong had to sacrifice the '14 Class since he was hired late but would make some progress in '15 and really start kicking arse in '16.

Where is Ketch's post that said this? I remember he posted some long diatribe saying this but in a lot more words. Looks like it's time to move on to 2017

I kind of look at A&M like the Miami Heat with all the super stars and I look at us like the San Antonio Spurs without all the super stars......San Antonio wins because of the system the Pop has.....they play with incredible discipline....every single player plays with the SAME effort, with the same unselfishness.......Pop is able to bring in 2-3 brand new players every year and get them to buy in to the system. I see Charlie Strong building that type of program....a program full of discipline....a program full of great work ethic......a program full of humble kids that will buy in and bring Texas back. Before someone brings it up, yes Duncan, Ginobli, & Parker are considered superstars but Duncan and Ginobli are damn near 40 so at this point in their career, they aren't as dominant as they once were. I think Texas has a lot of really good players now and i think we have really good players in the 2015 class so far.....what I'm saying is you can have "good" players in the right system that are coached the right way...."good" players that are humble that have good attitudes, etc...... And that team will be more successful than the team that has "Great players" that aren't coached well....a team that lacks discipline..... Etc...... I'm just saying guys. Charlie will build something that will last over time...he will get good enough players that we can coach up and make them great players...
