Turns out that Williams is an alcoholic wreck who peaked in 2000, and now struggles to communicate with his players on and off the court.<BR/><BR/>Al doesn't have that sort of baggage, but losing 2 assistants in 1 season handicaps recruiting significantly, and put much more pressure on Al to do the day to day admin BS (like making sure Tyrese is in his 9am History 080).Deacon Drakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17827411603052143857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9512562.post-1144728806326722152006-04-11T00:13:00.000-04:002006-04-11T00:13:00.000-04:00I agree about Cooley and Coen.

He brings a lot of emotion to the table, the guys seem to like him, and he's done one hell of a job working with BC's big men (Oates' improvement from game 1 to game 30 was remarkable). <BR/><BR/>As for Bill Coen, I hope he stays, but if he decides Northeastern is best for him, I wish him all the best. <BR/><BR/>Skinner is a big delegator (that's not a knock on him, just an observation). The team struggled more after losing O'Shea than it did after losing Bell. I'm afraid losing both of the top assistants next year could really hurt the cohesion with which the team plays. I hope not--and coaching staff turnover in terms of assistants getting head jobs is always great in the long run--but it does give me pause in the short term.flutie22phelan20https://www.blogger.com/profile/01303414751362562676noreply@blogger.com
