[QUOTE="Fighter of the Nightman, post: 1573607, member: 590800"] I was FAR from a Weber apologist, but didn't he actually "recruit pretty well" strictly going by the numbers? His problem seemed to be that he was terrible at crafting a full roster, and we paid for it with gaping holes on teams that had a few very talented players. So, we wound up with McCamey and Brandon Paul playing hero ball due to lack of other options. Combine that with what I believed to be Weber's very limited/specific coaching abilities, and you wound up with a lot of disappointing seasons where we'd miss the Tournament (or barely get in) because of some bad losses while also posting some really good wins. It was a very infuriating time... Glad to be done with that!! [/QUOTE]
