[QUOTE="Tevo, post: 1411182, member: 185365"] One thing for sure is that "talent" is not universal. A kid who has the right skills for a given system may or may not fit in well in another system. I think that's the source for Ryan and Wisconsin so consistently "outplaying" their talent -- because he was excellent at identifying guys for his system and then getting them to buy in and do things his way. I think Beilein does that too. Not that they don't get some good players, but they really have a skill in getting the players they have to mesh into a team. Which is, you know, coaching. [/QUOTE]
