[QUOTE="Calvin, post: 1315499, member: 4069"] Great, great pick-up. Not sure how JCL will take this, in the sense that he's going to have to compete with a high motor guy. Great players aren't afraid of competition of course, but when you're brought in under a player's coach like Groce, it's usually a rough adjustment. A 'find out what you're made of' kind of adjustment. Anyway, this is will accelerate the culture change. It can be hard to change a culture from losing to winning, and this is the kind of pick up that moves the needle. In addition to a good skill set, he's a guy who want to lead, and won't give up when things get tough. You need guys who set the bar for excellence high. [/QUOTE]
