Autry is a nice guy. Good family.

I was pretty vocal the minute he was hired. Never had the chops to be the coach here. It was evident. Wildhack took the easy road, gave Boeheim what he wanted. Year 1 it was even more evident Autry was not gonna work. Autry was a good player at Cuse, tbh his biggest problem as a PG was he was not a very high IQ PG. Usually you can tell a player is gonna be a good coach if they are a high IQ player and the leader of the team. Autry was not that

My BIGGEST thing is you take Year 1 to now Year 3. Autry has made the SAME mistakes time and time again in game. His rotations and substitution patterns, I’m not exaggerating when I say this….are the worst I have ever seen at the D1 level or higher. He has no feel for the game. You think after year 1 you can use the inexperience as an excuse but it’s year 3 and he’s stillllll making the same mistakes. He can’t use talent as an excuse….make no mistake here. This team is talented…if you put let’s say 2010 JB coaching this team. We are a legit sweet 16 threat or further. I mean that. This team is not coaches well, no discipline, offense is horrendous, rotations Autry use make no sense and kill any momentum any player has.

Moral of the story Autry should not have been the coach from Day one. He’s a fine assistant, probably wouldn’t even have him as my top assistant. He’d probably be my second assistant. His biggest value is recruiting. Never should have been the head guy here
