I'm taking that as somebody that is a successful innovator of basketball offenses and defenses, not somebody that is stuck in "their" system. That was my knock on Archie, he seem to be married to his system no matter the obvious that his players where not being successful in it. And, somebody who's play will attract top talent.
From Dolson, "What’s important to us is that it’s a style of play that recruits want to play in and that recruits see that they can see themselves in, but then also is really on the cutting edge of where is basketball going?” Dolson said. “Where is college basketball going? And as you can see, basketball is different than it was three years ago, four years ago, six years ago in terms of how it fits into the NBA and moving on and playing professionally. I think we have to blend all of that together to have an attractive style of play, that obviously can win consistently, but that players want to play in and see themselves in. Playing in the Big Ten Conference is huge, you can see with the great league we had this year. You kind of want it all. You want to blend the ability to succeed in our conference, the ability to have a style of play the players want to play in, the recruits want to play in, and that ultimately prepares them for the next level, as well.”
