the ego bit alienated so many HS coaches - inside his program he was different according to comments from at least one team member's father but that really hurt recruiting.
The other downfall was his "star" system - he expected his team's star to lead the team and that star could do no wrong - when the star turned out to be Reeves Nelson, the whole thing came completely unglued but I don't believe Ben adjusted to that.
