Rose's kids still post here I guess.
The fact of the matter is Rose mostly got by in his last 10 years with low hanging fruit recruiting and a couple great ones here and there. The defense was usually pathetic and yeah boards were typically a major problem.
His teams sucked in tournaments of all kinds due to athletic mismatches and the fact that nobody was taught proper man defense.
I too think Pope knows what it takes to play big boy ball and it starts with length and defense. It's an awesome thing to win a game handily and only make a couple threes. You might win a tourney game or 2 hitting from deep but it never lasts. Fans will eventually come to understand this.
