82...I wish I could like this post 100x. Exactly my thoughts. Look at mid majors with sustained success and this is the model. I don’t know how we didn’t give Siddle a closer look. Jimmy may have been a little scared of the Pitino tree and rightfully so after the recent fallout.

I also agree that Carolina ball makes it more challenging to compete at the mid major level. You prioritize big men in that system. Good big men are much harder to find than good wing/forwards. Many were frustrated by the fact that Keatts didn’t target as many big men but his system allowed him to go after the best player available.

I hope C.B. turns this around and he was not setup for success this year. Lord knows Kevin didn’t teach these kids how to buckle down and stay in front of guards in the half court. The pieces for next year should help.
