Scott, yes this is exactly what I meant to say, but you obviously said
it more clearly. :)

There is little correlation between great playing and great coaching.
You can find plenty of examples of one without the other in all
sports.

Being a great player does not automatically disqualify Mike Minter
from being an effective coach at NU (or anywhere else), but neither
does it qualify him.
