Is anyone confident we can have a winning team under Red next year?

I respectfully disagree,
The one thing Boeheim always did well was maximize the talent he had and designed an offense and defense that worked.
And because he always harped on defense we were seldom blown out like last night.
He didn’t always have great talent but only had one losing season, and that was just barely.
Red has managed to minimize the talent on the court
it is telling that the only 2 passionate players are the 2 transfers.
And that Cuffe ends up quoting a story from the Kansas coach to try and rally his teammates
Gerry brought the energy and street cred as a national champion.
Now that he and JB are both gone from the program, that street cred, passion and flat out respect for the coaches is gone.
i really dont think Red can fix this.
Breaks my heart to say this.
i just dont think he has what it takes to succeed as a top tier head coach

Wildhack has decision to make
Agreed on maximizing the talent regarding JB. How we even won 16 games and went 9-11 in the ACC with the roster we had in 2021-2022 was actually an amazing coaching job. We had great shooting, but was pretty awful in every other area of the game. On paper this roster should be atleast a tournament bubble team, that Boeheim could probably make a borderline top 25 team.
 
“’Winning’ team?”
Meaning .501?

Sure. And that won’t mean we’re good/acceptable/on the right track.
 
We aren’t winning with just the freshmen coming in and I have zero idea who’s worth keeping or who will stay.

We need a complete change in philosophy. We play meathead basketball. We can’t make 3’s and we don’t get enough shots at the rim.

Tonight was the 13th time in 21 losses where we have been beat by at least 15 points.

It feels like we are starting completely over again next season.
So, meathead basketball is inaccurate shooting and the inability to create good shots?
