Great coaches make great assistants. Great assistants dont make great coaches. If Gates's success is going to depend on his assistants, he is going to be a failure at this level.

The best HCs teach assistants how to coach/teach the way the HC wants and teaches them how to become great HCs themselves.

Didn't one assistant leave due to a cancer diagnosis? He was part of the missing link. This time he will get the players fired up and start what Gates did in his first year. I just have that gut feeling this coming season will be much better. It can't get any worse than last year.

Nutt is the one with cancer. I do think he is a solid assistant but I really dont think assistants have the capability to raise a ceiling on a program. They can probably help raise the floor, though.
