This we can agree with. I won't deny that Jensen was in many ways made great, because he listened to Majerus and did the things Majerus told him to do.

Majerus clearly played favorites with his players. His favorite guys were guys who didn't have great talent, but got the most out that talent. Jensen got more out of his talent than any player at Utah not named Andre Miller.

I just wish Majerus could have somehow given Jensen's work ethic to Britton Johnsen.
