I rarely debate any sport, unless it's baseball when I have a better than average chance at winning.

My take on the Ute hoop team is that it was Giac's team. Yes, Majerus' actions only allowed Giac to have 12 players on scholarship rather than 13, but the point is that Giac went after these players.

As for crediting wins and blaming losses this season, Giac really showed me nothing that hinted that he should get credit for the wins. Perhaps it was the assistants? The losses are on him and the players, but mostly him. His game plans, substitution patterns and game time adjustments were bizzare.
