[QUOTE="Wexahu, post: 2829702, member: 72863"] I will blame the coach. It's his responsibility to understand what kind of team he wants to have and then go find players that fit what he wants to do. I watch our games and I have no idea what the plan is. I have no idea what we work on in practice. There is little to no skill development, sense of score/clock situations, or anything else that makes it evident this is a well-coached, well-prepared team. It's like the plan is to just kind of go out there and jack up shots and hope they go in. Take Bane for example, he's been in the program for 4 years now and is presumably our best player, yet I see no special effort from the offense or the gameplan to get him open for shots. Nor has he developed any skills beyond shooting a three and taking the ball to the basket in the open court. His shooting motion is about as odd as can be, kind of a half set shot off one foot push shot, he obviously loves the weight room yet hasn't developed one bit of a back-to-the-basket inside game over his time here, even though he should be very valuable in that role. My question is what specific things have been going on in practice for the past four years to develop the offense, establish a plan, and develop guys skill sets in order to make the plan effective. That's coaching, and I see little evidence that we are getting much of it. [/QUOTE]
