I consider myself a fan, though not a huge fan. While I do enjoy a great number of his songs, IMO, The Ballad of Jed Clampett set to the tune of Money for Nothing (especially when raised by the video) was his best bit of genius. This song was in the back of my mind last year when I started this thread.

While tenacity and ambition aren't exactly the same thing, there seems to be a definite correlation. This was my point - I'd rather have ambitious students than talented students for inspiration purposes.
