Mindset is part of coaching.

I do not think we have the system for them to reach that level in the CAA. If we had trouble on defense with Cacok, O'Connell and Cyntalla in the 4-5 spots, I can't see Linssen, Dowd and Boggs being better. The rest of the pieces are pretty much the same.

Press or die.........:-)

The first year for CB was never gonna compete as even a mid level CAA team with the talent left here by Keatts. Last years team was slightly more talented but Cyntalla was a total bust and killed the team more times than I could count. I think just the fact that he is gone should help.
I see them being better this year but not a team that will compete for a top 3 spot. Its a process unless you sellout for a transfer team and I think CB is on the right path.

We play them right after Christmas. This is a game that concerns me because I think this guy is a good coach and a unique style. He had basically the same resume Keats had when you hired him.

He was 237–22 at Hargrave.

We play Charlotte who is a UVA protege near slowest on Dec 22nd, have a Christmas distraction, and then EKentucky who is the fastest in the nation a few days later on the 28th. That's a trap week of stylistic odd balls if I've ever seen one.
