[QUOTE="Obelix, post: 1239465, member: 7292"] I get your point and is a valid one. Given current players on the team, a good X's and O's coach will try to draw the best plays that fit the players that he has. Not plays that would work IF he had better players. Of course, there is a natural limit on the abilities of the players, so even the best plays that could be drawn for those players will not necessarily result in wins. An argument could be made that last year personnel gaps were so great that no matter the plays drawn, Groce would not be able to win more. Putting last year aside, however, the question remains: Has Groce shown so far in his tenure at Illinois that he makes good in-game decisions and draws plays that maximize his players' set of abilities? I think opinions will vary on this one. [/QUOTE]
