In response to cc66
Never having played college ball, I can speculate, only.
Given the apparent good feeling among the players, this year and last, it seemed natural they played for themselves, primarily. I think most other teams do.
And, I never saw his teams hug Rohan with all of the success they had.
Ditto Wooden and Knight.
As for Smith, those who know the game seem to evaluate him differently. What I saw on screens was a resilient team that didn't let bad stretches cause panic. Whether that's attributable to just the team is hard to tell, for me, at least.
I leave that conclusion to others, those who have attended games or not, those who read boxscores, whatever.
