You’re not wrong. Woodson just got done addressing our pick and roll coverage in his presser. It’s nice to finally have a coach that can articulate the problem. I always try to give a coach 2-3 years before I get really critical and the way he answers questions makes me optimistic. With our last two coaches, I wasn’t confident they understood or were capable of fixing the problems. I don’t have that concern with Woodson. My biggest concern with Woodson has been his substitution patterns and his play calling in late game situations (full court pressure at the end of the Cuse game, for example).

Watching Woodson right now and he clearly knows where our problems lie. Very specific answers, unlike the clueless nonsense we got from Crean and Miller all those years.

That’s what we should expect. I know I’ve already said it once in this thread but this team was still playing Archie’s offense in mid-November. A month and a half of practices limited in duration by the NCAA isn’t enough time to implement a brand new system. Sure, Woodson should receive some criticism for waiting that long, but he isn’t stupid. He knows this team doesn’t have the scorers to run anyone off the court. With this group of players, we have to be really good on the defensive end to stay in games and that’s what he chose to focus on.

I’m not giving up hope just yet. We could very easily be 13-0 right now. Two one-possession losses and a collapse at Wisky that should’ve been a win. This team has enough talent, they just haven’t clicked yet.

SMFH

Gotta rebound here…

Watch is foul the 83% shooter

Haven’t been overly impressed with Woodson’s sets coming out of timeouts this year. Hope he proves me wrong here…

I have a feeling our next HC is already on our bench.

This team should not be running us on the glass like this…

OMFG. If that crap keeps dropping for them we’re screwed

Jeez they can’t miss right now.

When Woodson walked into a post-game presser in November and said they’d hardly worked on the offense at all, I adjusted my expectations for the season. I already knew we wouldn’t be a good shooting team. If you can’t shoot and you haven’t implemented an offense that will get you looks at the rim, it’s awfully hard to win games.

I can’t wait to get Galloway back. We really need a guy that understands the game and knows how to make things happen.

Our games against PSU as of late have been more painful to watch than a Bo Ryan team.

Yup. He has struggled against guys like Cockburn and I expect him to have trouble with PU’s bigs. This team is gonna have to find a way to win without him because I fully expect him to struggle in a few conference games.

I wouldn’t think so but some on here are convinced JHS will come in and play the point. If that’s the case and both Phinisee/X come back, it wouldn’t surprise me. Personally I’d really like to see what Lander would do with some of Phinisee’s minutes this season.

Just like that!

Gotta finish these shots at the rim smh

A good trash talker would have no problem getting X tossed.

Phinisee back in. Cue scoring drought #2.

Maybe in South Dakota. That would still be pathetic in an Indiana HS gym…

This lineup is no bueno…

I used to b**** about this every year and finally just accepted that they’ll never change it. Still royally p***es me off.

Man this better not go to OT…
