Extremely! She has had stacked rosters since she arrived in Westwood, which points to her excellent recruiting skills. Yet almost all of her players leave UCLA barely better off than when they arrived. They have always under-performed.
I had a chuckle reading about her post-game Elite Eight interview where she said something like "I didn't have to give a half-time speech, the seniors did." Uh, yeah. The last two years they have been succeeding because of the leadership of the players, not the coach.
