It seems to me that somewhere along the line JB changed his strategy (and recruiting) to emphasize the zone defense. He wants a certain body type with length, wing span, quickness etc. And we have markedly de-emphasized offensive skills...especially shooting skill. Cuse used to always have a high powered offense with a lot of scoring. For several years now we are a poor outside shooting team. We don't bring in scorers anymore. Maybe Malachi Richardson will be the real deal...we'll see. But you need more than one. Most of the really good teams now put multiple 3 point shooters on the floor and move the ball. We continue to seemingly have a philosophy of having only one perimeter shooter usually the shooting guard position. Of course a good PG is essential to running a fast break and having a good offense and we have a major problem this year. Last year Ennis was good at limiting TO's but he didn't push a break and he couldn't shoot. MCW finally was blossoming late and had the big FF run and then left. We really need to get a PG that can run a break and can be a 3 point threat too.
