But you said he needed more money
Money fuels success in college athletics. Example LSU football on the Joe Dean budget vs the TAF years.

He had all 3 of those players at the same time on one team
He had them for one year. Shaq was very raw as a frosh. In fact, he had trouble staying on the court because of foul trouble. Roberts had a great touch, but spent most of the season 30 pounds overweight. Dale actually benched him because he would not work it off. roberts was also in his first year.
Jackson was Jackson but he was a true 2 guard, not a point. He also had trouble with his illness medicalion throughout the season. That team lost in the tourny to another team with NBA talent. Do the names Kenny Anderson, Dennis Scott, and Brian Oliver ring a bell? Pretty good team there.

Tell me some of your favorite basketball coaches of all time and then tell me if you think those coaches could have won a championship with that team
Well lets just say Dean Smith did not win a single title until he got Jordan, Worthy, and Perkins. Bobby Cremins never won a title with his NBA talent. Digger Phelps never won one while at Notre Dame. Eddie Sutton never won one at Arkansas, Okla St, or Kentucky. The great Larry Brown could not win one a UCLA. Needless to say these guys all had tons of talent.

Dale Brown was a good man and a good fit for the program when he came here. That doesn't make him a good coach, but he is a beloved coach here.
Being the second winningest coach in the history of the SEC with more wins over Kentucky than anyone disagrees with that statement. Sorry but you ain't winning this one.

Can easily make the same excuses for Les's players. shite, just look at all the off the field issues he had this year. Every year they have all sorts of problems but Les continues to win.
