I do and will miss developing guys in your own system and then watching them become what you hoped, but now that BYU is actually a major player in the new system I'm having way more fun than ever being in the mix. We actually benefit from paying players being out in the open now, rather than the under the table stuff of yesteryear, as we have money and are willing to spend it when it's all above board.
Also, Kevin Young arrived from the NBA with no college coaching under the old ways baggage. He's used to the money and mercenary ways of the NBA. He came in and immediately put a system and coaches in place to deal with new environment. His older brother, Justin Young, who is director of recruiting spent two decades in recruiting and media, primarily focused on high school and college basketball. He was the co-owner and editor-in-chief of HoopSeen.com. Prior to that, he worked for Rivals.com and Yahoo! Sports, serving as the national basketball editor and a contributing editor, respectively. All that guy does is monitor for talent and gems. I imagine lots of college coaches used to the old system really struggling to adapt to this new world (like Baylor losing every single player and having to rebuild a whole roster in one offseason!).
It's a new era for BYU when players are leaving BYU for Georgia and Virginia to get more playing time. I do miss things about the old ways, but BYU is benefitting far more in the new world. I imagine this annoys traditional bluebloods that didn't have to worry about the likes of BYU before and deal with another competitor for talent. Going forward, I expect us to make the stacked group of S16 every year. I'm lovin it.
