What should the coaching have done, exactly? Specifics. 

Require someone to run and up to towards the other end. Opens up the court and gives more passing options when inbounding a play.

We had a deep option the entire time.

We did not everyone was bunched in the half court and not making runs towards the basket.

Plus we hardly set any screens to give guards room to work with.

4 of them were. Their length and quickness made it so we couldnt throw over the top, initially. 

We had someone deep, though. 

There wasn't anything wrong with the design expect:

1. M Holmes being hurt

2. Officiating 

3. Scalia two missed open 3s

4. Holmes+Meister missed layups

It was a zone press

[TTT 932]

Holmes was always available for the press.  Unavailable and was struggling to kind of almost lumbering around.  Was it starting game in Iowa and she played well vs MSU she did visit trainer.

So IU Ladies coaches suddenly forgot how to coach.  An injury related issue with Holmes with this team will make it look that way for sure.

Look dude you and I are going to have to agree to disagree here . Screens could have been utilized and better runs towards our half of the basket could have happened. In my opinion. Even doing this a bit more would’ve won us the game.

Involve other personnel if current group not getting it done, switch up the press break, get the team back in the right mindset.

Yes I get it that players need to execute, but Coaches need to coach as well.

Runs? This isn't soccer. But yeah, we will. 

The design was complete fine though. We've played, and dominated OSU twice with the exact press break.

Our execution was poor.

And healthy Holmes at her best which she has been money most of the year.  Unable to be a dominant factor in this game and OSU figured that out.  It was really obvious.

What players? We had 3 girls with 4 fouls with like 8 mins to go in the game. 

This loss had little to do with coaching.

Because we did the same thing. Pass it to the corner.

Absolutely 

[Banksyrules 4,712]

Serious question. Are we not allowed to run up and down the sideline in the womens game to inbound the pass?

Sandvik and Geary both could have provided minutes.

Exactly! Poorly executed!!!

Dear god. Against pressure? No. Absolutely no. 

They would be worse options that Bates against pressure. Cmon man.

That’s coaching as well.
