[QUOTE="Larken24, post: 1295651, member: 11221"] Based on the press conference, here are a few things I noticed/took away from this. 1. The guy looks like he has the personality of Huggins and Martin, whether or not he'll have the same post game talks like Martin will be interesting to watch. 2. He definitely has more drive and more passion than what I saw in Groce from his Press conference 3. Loved the Brian Cook reference he made! 4. I think he's similar to Whitman in that he has seen Illini Basketball in its golden days and knows what the program is capable of. 5. I thought it was clever on him when he talked about recruiting, talked more about what will fit his system. Knowing what he did when he worked with Frank Martin who just so happened to have a few McD AA on those K-State teams when he was there. 6. I think what we saw last with the USC and Duke game shows what kind of style we could potentially see, I know the OK state defense wasn't as good as the offense, but I think it would have gotten better in year 2 had he stayed, I wouldn't worry about the defense stuff until November when the team plays.
