Message: [QUOTE="IthacaMatt, post: 5550811, member: 405"] Maybe I'm being naive, but do you think that part of the problem is that our coaches do not provide enough structure in the offseason? Now, I'm not an expert at the rules of engagement, but it seems to me that in some sports, teams are using the offseason workouts to really do team work, not just individual development and pick-up games. I believe that some teams have semi-organized summer programs where you can put in systems, so that you're ready to go when the official practices start. If you're just starting your work as a team on Day One, I think you're already behind. Aren't sports year-round at the top levels? It seems we have gotten better later in each of the last 2 seasons. Maybe other teams are doing in August what we're doing in October. [/QUOTE]
