I agree with this 100%
I also cant shake the parallels between how good he looked for Bruce Pearl and then when he first got here before our coaching/scheme threw him off AND how good Jarrett Allen looked for Atkinson and prior to here, and then in his first weeks here before he did the same thing Okoro did midseason.
I simply dont believe Allen would be looking this lost and unsure of himself, save the concussion, if he knew his role, believed in it and wasn't focused on thinking through the game.
Basically, these guys look better and play with confidence and then as they adjust to and are assimilated into our coaching/schemes they look lost and unsure of themselves suddenly.
If you are thinking on the court, instead of reacting/playing with full confidence, you are at a disadvantage. Good coaching and scheme fixes overthinking by having clear defined roles for guys in a system that they can excel at without having to overthink.
I dont believe we have that.
Don't disagree with this. The one thing that is for sure is the offense sucks and is worse than it was even under Beilein.
Can this be solved with an offensive coordinator? I keep thinking about Vanterpool and if we could get him on the bench and as an insurance policy.
It's hard for me to say JB needs to go. He worked all training camp on defense, which has been better and even good at times. I believe they have had something like 10 practices all year. A young team needs more than that. A team with a lot of turnover and injuries needs more than that.
