Bottom line of this thread.
Blue chips no longer matter because those classes are not in the dogs future. I get it, lowered expectations. Maybe Fats can parlay turning around a team with talent to begin with into the soon to be open TAM job?
I’d be more concerned about the dumbassery exhibited by Lanning. Maybe he will get better in the head coaching department, but he appears to be in way over his head.
Point being that, of course blue chips matter. But if you coach them like Lanning does, it won’t matter how many stars his players had as recruits.
Our fat coach has demonstrated an ability so far to get more than most expected out of lesser talent. All things being equal in the coaching dept., I’d want Oregon’s talent. But things don’t look equal to me.
8-2 over his head POTD. The guy is a first time HC that got his head beat in by his mentor and then ran off 8 in a row before dropping a 3 pointer even with 2 dumb ass calls. He's gonna be just fine. Chip got his head beat in by BSU and did the same thing. Smart coaches learn from mistakes. Well except for J. Lake.
Fats only has 88 more games as a HC than Lanning. He whipped his ass by 3 with all of that experience.
