No wonder there aren't any changes or improvements made. Guess you either didn’t hear, or chose to ignore Hummel’s statement during the broadcast that, at some point, “the players just have to make plays.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At some point, the coach is responsible. A game or two could certainly be blamed on the players. A whole season? No. Four whole seasons? Definitely not.

AxnJxn Posted March 6, 2021 Report Share Posted March 6, 2021 I don’t really get what his salary has to do with anything. He’s being paid an amount that is reasonable for the market he is in and the job he has. He’s just failing at it. I mean, do people actually think he’s just doing this for the salary?

dgambill Posted March 6, 2021 Report Share Posted March 6, 2021 I’m done playing the blame game. There is enough to go around. First Crean and his recruits and now Archie and his kids. Plain and simple it needs to be better. They all need to get better. There isn’t a single kid on the roster that I would freak out if they weren’t here next year....nor would I freak out if the coach is gone. I’m ready for a change. These kids aren’t bad kids and Archie isn’t a bad coach. It just didn’t work out. No hard feelings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or Archie tried to fit players to his system no matter what their strengths and weaknesses are. We criticized Crean a lot for not being able to tweak his system to fit players better. I think we've seen the same problem with Archie. Also my other thoughts are if Archie's offensive scheme is simple and easy to prepare for, there's not much room for players to do. Their offensive sets and moves are easily anticipated by opponents. What makes matters worse, with our bad 3 point shooting, we can't open up the floor either.

Hoosierdave Posted March 6, 2021 Report Share Posted March 6, 2021 49 minutes ago, BobSaccamanno said: Respect your views, but just my IMO, but I’d want to beat people with class. You could easily say “I studied their film relentlessly and felt like I could anticipate their attack.” That’s not outright calling somebody out. If I were a coach that’s how I would teach it. I am sure you know Coach Knight would skewer players when they went down that path. In my work, I never, ever call out a competitor by name. To do otherwise would reflect poorly on me. The way I do it is, I give negative examples to show how we are better but I don’t call people out by name. It plays a lot better IMO. Like I said, you’re a great poster and we can’t always agree! It makes the world go around. Not that I disagree I’d want my team to be classy when winning but respect is earned, not given. We haven’t made anyone respect us over the last 4 years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What’s going on under Painter in their clubhouse that this kind of thing is deemed ok? Just think if we had beaten PU 9 times in a row. We, including me, would be insufferable.
