You can SAY your offense is based on this, that, and the other thing.

But where the rubber met the court, it was pretty underwhelming.  
Siena's O metrics were...  meh.

Not unlike Red saying how great our Level 5 D was going to be, because we were going to play VERY HARD!!!! 
And we did, for a handful of games. 
And then we didn't anymore.

All of which is why sooooo many fans were clamoring for an outside hire -
somebody with PROVEN offense systems that actually showed it on the court.
aka - Hodgson & Schertz, and maybe Murray (if we went the route of a non-HC).

Gerry had the
/ checks notes
//  NINTH best season in Siena history.  THIRD place in the MAAC.

They got BLOWN OUT by a crap Indiana team.
Lost to powerhouse programs like:  Iona, Merrimack 2x, Sacred Heart, Quinnipiac, Fairfield.

If not for going on a nice run in the MAAC tournament, and then giving Dook a run for 3/4 of that NCAAT game, would anybody anywhere in P4 have been looking at the coach who had that record in a low-low-low major conference??

GMac has not SHOWN to do anything special on O, over 2 seasons of results.

So yeah - he can talk about what they want to do, how they want to do it, yada yada yada -
but I'll remain skeptical to, at best, cautiously optimistic - until I see it on the floor in games that count.
