The lack of self-awareness from an X and Os standpoint is astonishing from Red in the clip below.  I can see where all the long-time posters are now getting their talking points.  There is no amount of talent we can bring in that can cover for the lack of our offensive and defensive systems.  The fact that some posters seem to just completely overlook this is baffling.  I can see by the thread Dasher made that most of you don't watch other teams or other leagues play and it shows that if you think we can just throw some money at this and it will be fine.

On defense, we give up lay-up after lay-up and when the other team gets tired of doing that they start taking open threes you know why they are open?  It's not because of talent.  It is because they are not coached in proper rotations and are not demanded to give maximum effort on that end of the court.  And if they make a mistake there is no consequence just a gosh good try get them next time buddy.

On offense, we have one of the least efficient offenses in the nation because we are one of the only offenses left in the nation that relies on pure isolation most of the time.

You guys are holding onto an old-school style of big East basketball that you guys once loved that just doesn't work anymore in today's modern basketball.   The lack of wanting change is concerning, to say the least.
