1. The interpretation of the phrase "quit recruiting". Larry Smith actually recruited a pretty talented class in 1999. The problem was that he took a lot of chances on high talent guys with questionable qualification issues. 19 of the 25-ish guys he signed to that class did not make it to campus.

2. Some people really underestimate the attitude problems of the team that Odom inherited. Yes, it was significantly more talented that what Pinkel inherited. Pinkel's last team had already fallen apart. The season started with a lot of questionable performances and quickly spiraled out of control. Clearly Odom has not fixed enough, but Pinkel started his own deconstruction.
