They had one of the worst records in team history...then once Lombardi became coach, they never had a losing record and they won three world championships. Of course, I'm not saying that talented players don't make an impact, but coaching does make a big difference.

Wouldn't exactly compare davis to lombardi, lol. If they can get by oklahoma than beat a great team in the finals, than maybe but until than we shall see. Davis had a first round loss last year so to me thats proof that its the great players he had, not too much to do with coaching.
