Battle's not in a position to get better. Freshman need some help around them; he's getting zero help.  Frank should be getting better but, again, is that on the coaches or on him?

So far in this thread, the argument against GMac's coaching ability is that MCW and Gbinije were good, so his efforts there don't mean much.  Because Frank and Gillon are bad, he must be bad.  That's the argument.  Maybe it's not your argument, but that's what we're looking at and it's a clearly BS argument.  Mike Gbinije was not a good basketball player when he arrived on SU's campus and nobody would have predicted that he would be able to play PG.  After a couple seasons with this coaching staff, despite his poor ballhandling and lack of experience at the position, G was the leader on the team doing everything we needed him to do at PG.  That alone speaks to the coaching staff's ability to mold guards.  Like I said, Battle gets a pass.  He's been underwhelming so far but he's not even in the top 5 most disappointing players on the team so far.
