In response to jdubs
I've been there for 60% of the home games Loyola has played during the Patsos era. I have seen very little improvement in his coaching capability during that tenure. He still substitutes like he's ADHD-you make a wrong move and next whistle you are out. He has no feel for the flow of the game. His teams never come out ready to play. Rarely does he make an in-game adjustment. His offense is terrible, and players do not improve year to year. Finally, he doesn't bring the students in. Is that his fault? Maybe not, but part of that is the mediocre teams he trots out there. He does recruit pretty well as his teams rarely are overmatched talent wise, at least in the league.
Bottom line, he's taken the team from terrible to average; but I've been to maybe 3 or 5 games out of 50 that I've walked away saying "Jimmy coached well tonight." If you talk to the boosters, he's already gone.
