I responded to a statement that "When you have an SU team that doesn't even try to get back on D and the coaches are just as apathetic". The definition of apathy is a "lack of interest, enthusiasm, or concern".  I have no problem with criticizing the players for not getting back on D or even the coaches for not teaching them to do so but to say that the coaches lack interest, enthusiasm or concern is to be a mind reader, unless you've heard them saying something that revealed that. I asked you if you were close enough to the bench to hear what they said and you never answered that.

I'm not defending how this team has played. It's alarming, as I clearly indicated in my Downside posts:

You might also have a look at the question I asked on tonight's Adrian Autry Show:

That's hardly "an attempt to get me and everyone else to ignore their lying eyes".

I just don't like it when fans presume that they want to win more than the players or coaches do. This is our pastime. Basketball is their lives.
