Because he was the previous coach, recruited high quality bigs and therefore proved it can be done. Alex, Dahi, Valdus, Gerald. Even Sam would probably start on this squad. I wouldnt just compare JJ to BT, but to Capel, Young, Purnell etc. And 8 years ago isnt that long. Sober BT was a better coach and recruiter than JJ. I don't even think its close. But, sober BT went away, replaced by drunk BT and we let him go. Rightfully so. Then our first choice new coach who was basically hired got on a lucky streak in the NCAA and backed out of his commitment to come here and we got stuck with JJ as a replacement. JJs done fine. In some ways, better than I feared. In most ways, he's pretty much what I expected. Top third CUSA, OK recruiting, and an occasional post-season appearance. Regardless, JJ has a hard time getting quality interior players. Ezipke is probably the best one he's had. BTs success in that area shows it can be done here.
