Most coaches don't have the luxury of dominant athletes so I want role models who can lurk around year after year with 1 gym rat, one walk-one, 2 football players and one folding chair. Guys like Pete Caril, Bud Pressley, David Arsenault and Dick Bennett.

Not to mention Tark the Shark. NCAA D1 record of 778-202. He just...errr...stretched the rules a bit. Anybody can win with JJ Redick. But Lloyd Daniels? The man's a genius! His only problem is he looks like Uncle Festus.
The NCAA does NOT like Uncle Festus.
btw...Al "Grampa" Lewis recently passed...may his communist @ss rest in peace, God love him.
