Interesting article detailing how Larranaga uses statistics to set up his game plans and how statistics influence his scheduling.While Larranga embraces all statistics other coaches ignore them.For example, Bruiser Flint said,'I care about rebounds, turnovers, and free throw percentage. All of that other stuff is a little too much."

After listening to Larranga explain his use of statistics an unidentified ACC coach said, "We need to be listening to the old man."

If you get a chance check it out.

Impressive. It took 62 words for you to mention Duke. I thought it would be much quicker.

Coach K. I just laughed because any time there is a new Ahdonis thread, it's going to mention Duke in one way or another pretty much every time. And, when I opened it up, there's Coach K. Lol.

duke wasn't mentioned and some duke fans are just plain paranoid.

For your sake and to make sure your panties in a bunch I will delete Mike Kzyzewski from the post. It really is about Larranaga and nothing more. Mike Kzyzewski was used because he along with Bruiser Flint(also in my post) were quoted in the article.
