[QUOTE="ITIllini, post: 1175924, member: 30045"] For me, it doesn't come down to wins and losses. The question I ask myself is "do I think JG is a good coach". Does he make the players better? Do the players play with intensity? Are the players fundamentally sound? Does he have a solid game plan? Does he call timeouts at the right times? Does he recruit the right players? Good coaches can have bad luck and bad seasons. Bad coaches may have good seasons due to good luck or good players, especially if the coach is a good recruiter. Should we be happy if we Illinois barely makes the tournament next year but the team had the talent to compete at a higher level? I know others have a different opinion, but I don't feel that JG is a good coach. I was hoping that he could recruit at a high enough level to succeed, but in my opinion, I see no signs that he will be able to recruit high level talent in the future. I believe that it will be harder and harder for him to convince recruits with every loss. [/QUOTE]
