There has been some on this Board who seem to question MB's leadership qualities, or perhaps his failure to motivate his teammates. If you go to the Louisville board and find the video clip of Pitino's postgame press conference, you should be moved by what he says. For all of his faults (and he has many), Pitino has been more than charitable over the last 2 seasons when talking about UVa. In this press conference, he spoke of certain things that really impressed him about Virginia. The comment he made about Brogdon was that in the 2nd half, as Louisville was bringing the ball up court behind by 20 points, Brogdon would keep exhorting his teammates on the floor: "Just get one more stop! One more stop!" He implied that that was just the defensive mentality that he wanted to see out of his guys, and that until they adopted the Brogdon "one more stop!" mindset, his guys would not be the defensive team it needed to be to be successful.
Brogdon, the leader....
