All situations aren't equal. You can't hold the coach for the University of Montana to the same standard you hold Mike Krzyzewzki. You can't hold Lewis to the same standard as Belichik. Speaking of Coach K, something he once said has always stuck with me. He said to never let your success or failure be defined by someone else's expectations. The job of a coach is to use the resources at his disposal to acquire the best possible talent he can, put them in the best position to win by a combination of scheme and inspiration, set realistic expectations, and try to meet and then exceed them. My opinion is that Lewis gets as much out of his situation as anyone should reasonably expect.
