Is there really a lot of criticism of Gmac's coaching? Or is it recruiting related issues, both his and how he's deployed, for why he's viewed poorly by some? I think it's hard to blame him for the disasters we saw in Joseph, Patterson and Howard. None of those kids have looked talented enough to be quality players at this level. Cooney improved, IMO, but never gained the consistency with his shot that we had hoped. I don't think a coach can be blamed for that.

The lack of fundamentals we constantly see with our guards is what irritates me, and I don't know if that's Gmac, JB, AA or was Hop. Kids shouldn't be leaving their feet to throw passes as often as we see here. Guards should be able to throw bounce passes. We should be able to move the ball faster and crisper. The post should be fed, even if it's just to reset the offense a bit. Struggling to finish through contact, and even without contact, is something that shouldn't happen as much with big guards or upperclassmen. I think all of that can fall at the coaches' feet.
