I don't know if another university in the country had 2 coaches that better personified the traits of a school than we did with Skip and Grobe.
Yup.

Skip's teams probably played even less defense than what we're seeing now, but he didn't seem to care because we lit up the scoreboard- and it was sure fun to watch!
I would rather have W's and really don't care if it was exciting basketball as long as we won. 111-105 in 2OT was exciting but still a loss and a bad post season loss at that.
Give me an 82-80 thrilling OT win in the ACCT finals
I am not [Redacted] fan, and he could definitely stand to be more charismatic, but Grobe isn't really a promoter either, at least not with students.
That article is right though. Tragedies tend to deify people, and Skip is no exception. We were never gonna go to a FF with him coaching, and man during JG and EW's senior years we were inexcusably bad. There were more than a few folks eager to dump him off if he didn't right the ship soon. Oddly enough, I think Dino did more with the team he inherited than Skip would have because we played some defense that year.

Spurrier and K?
Correct. His 2003 team (J Ho's senior year) was awesome on D and won the conference on the back of our defense, not our offense.

All Howard. Even the Mavericks played D with Howard.
