I don't think so. They haven't shown the consistency to do it during the regular season.

Long-range planning works best in the short term.

We're hoping to find some cohesiveness and consistency.

We are still looking for consistency day in and day out. When we play well - we play very well - but when we are down it seems we really get down.

It is interesting that ever since Ben left, he has struggled a little bit at UCLA, and Jamie has flourished. Nationally, the ultimate sign of respect is when jobs come open, and Jamie's name is going to be thrown into the fray because everyone knows he can get the job done. There is a good chance that a job or two is going to come open in the Pac-10 this year. The first name you're going to hear is Jamie Dixon's. He's going to have to make a decision. He has a great arena. It looks like he has good support from the administration. He's been able to go into New York and get some very good players. He's got a lot of things going for him at Pitt.

Maybe a second chance at the Hall of Fame, but not on the sidelines. I love the man dearly but he doesn't deserve it.
