Fire Autry

He actually had a talent problem at the end of his coaching career because the recruiting fell off.
Talent was there. He just couldn’t get along with a lot of it especially without Hop. Coaching and talent matter, damn it’s not an either or thing.

What kind of Question is that?
Does North Carolina and Duke count as premier programs?
I mean, UNC football did hire the most successful NFL head coach of all time.

I’m not sure you’re strong at making statements supporting your opinions.
 
I have come to the conclusion that the posters on this site are just fans and don't know Shizit about basketball. Some of these comments about what you think a coach can or can't do relative to in game strategy is laughable. I pose this question to all of the so called hoops experts in the 315: Was Coach B.oeheim a good coach? If so, why didn't he continue to win big in the later stages of his career? Did he forget how to coach? Were the quality of players not the same? Did the changing landscape of College Basketball prevent him from making the necessary adjustments to remain successful?
Thank you. This post may just be what my brain needs to distract myself from yet another completely agonizing loss by the Bills.
 
Talent waas there. He just couldn’t get along with a lot of it especially without Hop. Coaching and talent matter, damn it’s not an either or thing.
He had talented players, but every roster had a major deficiency in the last few years at atleast on one position. This year’s team there is no reason it can’t be an all around team.

So Dr Bill. Please let us know what you think Autry does well as a coach? I would be shocked if you come up with one thing
 
Coaching is over rated compared to talented players. Get better players and we will win more.

terrible. And he has to go. And he will go. I would bet. Just firing him now doesn't really help things. Makes us fans feel better. That is it.
Firing him now leads to national speculation about our next coach and our potential targets being asked about our job and feeling compelled to deny interest, while their school offers them pay increase/extension. It's not beneficial to us.
 
We had 18 TOs and 10 Assists. 14 of the 18 came from two players...
If anyone has been watching the pointshaving videos of those buffalo players I will say that George and even Donnie’s turnovers were worse than those. I’m not saying that’s the case.

I just think Autry, JJ, Donnie are snakebit. George is just an inconsistent guard. He is playing the exact same way he did at GT. Will throw 13 assists 3 days ago then have 13 turnovers yesterday and will prob have 10 assists his next game.
 
he’s gone after the season and knows it unless there’s a miracle ACC tourney run
Even the miracle runs don’t save mediocre coaches. He needs to show real improvement and making things work. Remember Keates at Nc state. Won out all the way to the final 4. Got him 1 more season then canned. Imagine what they just paid for Will Wade. Beat by GT at home. We’re upset by BC with a 5 point spread. That was 17.5! Honorable mention UNC fans calling for hubert Davis’s head after choking back to back games. Both those teams just tanked their seasons pretty good too.
