This is a very good post and it’s truly hard to argue any of the concerns. I share them too.

I just can’t get over how this team cannot guard anyone and has no concept of playing defense. Offensively, is the same. There’s no ability or desire to attack except for Moore. There’s no sets or any concepts showing the team is actively hunting good looks. We throw the ball around the perimeter, guys like Bell and Carlos have no ability whatsoever to do anything against tough D, passing is brutal and/or non-existent and it’s like watching guys who have never met each other playing together for the first time.

And Red has no feel for the roster or roster management at all. That seems pretty clear. Anybody that has watched this team knows that Moore is the only guy that can do anything with the ball in his hands and score. Yet Red starts both halves with easily the worst backcourt duo of any power 5 team and most mid majors when we need scoring is just alarming. Throw in Bell who can’t do anything either and it’s baffling.

There’s no rhyme or reason for anything being done, no ability to adjust and certainly nothing is being done to coach these guys up and elevate their ability in games.

I have seen nothing in 40 games to suggest Red is even close to being able to handle this job. We need someone far better, far more proactive and someone that demands better. Fran is doing that for football, Red is the complete opposite.
