When CMY started, I really wanted him to get a deep run in the tourney so

he'd get the national coverage he deserves (as a good human). In today's environment for vt mbb or many, I'm not sure how to get there as development time/experience is 1-2 years vs 4-5... Almost feels like evolving to a rec center pick-up game each year...run & gun and maybe you'll get an ncst run....And I'm not on the boat of paying 5 guys 500k-1 mil/each as the entry fee although that seems the direction of several programs... I think folks like CTB and CMY love the actual work..the coaching, the relationships and development of young men... Dealing with agents and the related distraction/interruption/obstacles begins to outweigh the love...

CMY may not be too far off from the realization that Bennett came to.
