  1. You can supply your own caption. (there are so many that come to mind)
  2. I'd like to see at least 2 years of the above before an extension is made. But that's just me.
  3. Do not disagree that fundamentals are integral at all. But not even knowing how to block out your man on defensive boards is inexcusable at this level. Technique improvement, yes. That's the tweaks I was talking about on offense & defense. But just because a kid can shoot doesn't check all the boxes for a great recruit in my mind. Not taking aim at you, just used your post to insert my opinion on our severe lack of fundamentals as a team, which lead to too many turnovers, and easy opponent's baskets. Like many of you, I'm just frustrated with where we're at. Certainly not convinced next year will be better. Hope so, but not convinced yet.
  4. IMO, our "fundamentals" stunk last year, particularly blocking out on rebounds. Yeah, we got a lot of rebounds, but how many times did the game thread blow up because MR, Ware, or whoever didn't block out their man, and the guy gets right under the bucket for an easy put back. Fundamentals should be a GIVEN before you even start practice. At this level, adjustments to your defense and offense for the upcoming game shows how well you're coaching your team. How to take away the best opposing players offense, tendencies of opponents, zone vs man, and on and on. FT% is on the players not the coach. Yes, there needs to be time allotted for FT in practice, but form, and reps need to happen before and after practice in 1:1 sessions. If we have to devote significant practice time to fundamentals at this level, we're all gonna be frustrated, and I'm afraid disappointed this upcoming season.
  5. Quit teasing me....for the past 3 years we've heard 4-1 offense. Have yet to see one set of it...unless it was by mistake...
  6. Maybe we finally play 4 or 5 out and get into transition more often. It would force Woodson to play a different offensive scheme. (note: not wishing injury on anybody...just answering the question)
  7. I still want another shooter, and a good one. With our luck, we'll have 2 of our wings get injured. (and I'd prefer another guard, but I'd take a wing without complaining)
  8. After last year's fiasco, when I see it on the floor, THEN I'll believe it. If Woodson doesn't put it together this year, he will be seen as another Lou Henson. Doing so little with so much.
  9. Does this "plumber" know something I don't about glue joints?
  10. Social media is "management by interruption" IMO. I don't text, no social media at all. If I want to talk with someone, I pick up the phone and call them. Email is fine for non essential messaging. Everything else is just noise. But those of you who are addicted to it. That's just fine. Your choice.
  11. I still think we need to find a true point guard. Rice may be an OK part time at the 1, Cupps isn't even close to being a true PG (yet), and I'd rather have Gallo @ 2-3. We've got the opening, just need to fill it. Seems like most of the attention in the portal is 2-5 positions. (we needed those as well, but I'd like a knock down shooter point guard)
