I agree. It is easy to look like a good coach when you always have good players, but the real test of a coach is how he does with mediocre talent. No coach can win with no talent, but some can turn mediocre talent into a good team. The coaches who show respect to their players and demand respect in return are usually the ones that get it done. A good coach also knows how to deal with different personalities.

Good post HappyGilmore!

Excellent Point. The first thing a coach has to do is demand respect from his players. And you said it the best in a prior post. Virgie and Dorton will be down the next couple of years, so it will be interesting to see which coach will prevail, in this rivalry.
