Our team can't possibly be struggling this much without coaches being majorly responsible for this debacle. The overseas players are not ready for collegiate ball but Mack, Andrews, B Wills, Maclendon didn't suddenly lose all their talent from high school. Something is systemically wrong with how the players are being coached. IMHO.

Did they coach them not to make free throws? To chuck up brick after brick from 3? The coaching shares the blame, for sure. But at some point the players need to put the ball in the basket, block out, play defense, etc.
ItтАЩs called youth. Mack us easy to guard. BWill is no threat to shoot the ball. Andrews is learning how to be a PG. HeтАЩs not there yet. Only time and hard work will fix the issues.
Youth plays a part for sure but there are other young players who excel and these are four star players. Something is just really off and disconnected.

Agree, Tamara, there is no self-confidence on this team. It looks like we expected our bigs to dominate.

Bingo. Cronin's fault here is roster construction (to the extent that college coaches still have control over that)
He didnтАЩt have control over losing half his roster. He retained a lot of players for 3 and 4 years. Then they all left at once.
exactly. And now NIL has made it impossible to reboot in the transfer portal and every recruit top freshmen.

Yes, but those young players are on rosters with older players. We have one older player and itтАЩs Nwuba.
Good point. But still to be struggling this much...
