before he died, Skip Proesser had some good Wake teams in the 2000's and they canned Dino Gaudio after a good season as well. DG had a highly regarded recruiting class coming...was the storyline at the time.
i lived in Boulder when Bzdelik was at AFA and CU. He was OK....he inherited a really good senior class from Joe Scott (who was a Princeton guy) and had a couple very good AFA teams and his CU teams were terrible. I don't see why he gets credit for much of anything he did at CU outside securing a commitment to facilities from the admin.
he got a couple good players on campus and gets praised for a rebuild of the program....but my opinion is that isn't entirely deserved. they finished last in the big 12 a couple times. even Ricardo Patton generally finished in the middle of the league.
i think it was a bad move for Wake/great thing for CU when BZ took the Wake job.
