What I've always been worried about though is not that Hewitt will implode the program in spectacular fashion, but will do just enough to hang on and allow us to cling to mediocrity for years.
QD, I think you've perfectly encapsulated my and many others' concerns as well.
Hewitt is a good enough recruiter to avoid a nuclear meltdown, but I think it's pretty clear at this point that he needs help to address his limitations as an in-game coach.
That said, I'd still rather have him than LaSalle's coach. For a guy coming off a trip to the Sweet 16, John Giannini is not impressive at all -- all the volcanic sideline eruptions of Gary Williams with none of the tactical expertise.
I would've been sick if we had lost to their disorganized, 1-on-1 streetballing slop. We looked like a team straight out of "Hoosiers" by comparison.
