Message: [QUOTE="cuselaxss26, post: 5417028, member: 8563"] I don’t think coach O is bad. Also only his second year and defense has improved to point. His system doesn’t seem to be to flawed almost seems kids just arnt doing what suppose to or get lost or not enough talking. They seem to panic when have ball n any type of pressure. Also i’m curious if game dwan got hurt n came out can’t remember what game it was but vaguely feel since that he has been awful. Maby been playing hurt which def coaches fault then. Or he just isn’t playing to his strength. He isn’t aggressive enough on ball which confusing as he likes to lay lumber at times grant always poor cchoice at worst times. But his man on man cover is just down right not good. He isn’t on guys hands he doesn’t play body which he should for how big he is. He is terrible getting round picks. Honestly hard to tell if all coaching or also players. Guys we’re running n diving to chase ball when weren’t even close to being first one near ball why? Why when we slide we go for stick instead of body or a legal hit. Lead with shoulder two hands on stick n get low so away from head or neck area. Also will blame coaches with some young potential talent on both sides of ball get these guys some time (little to late now clearly) n see what they have. We lack depth. Another thing blame coaches is english being on left side (facing goal) as he as no left hand whats so ever. Makes sense have english on that side if inverting or dodging behind net to get ball for shot as that’s where want a righty like english. But we don’t do that we have english dodge down ally ball constantly in his right hand. Makes it much harder for cross field skip pass or even pass to top with defender right on ya. Same goes for leo on other side. If not setting up for shot for their strong hand n just dodging purposes switch them. Think gait should have set goals for the year. And reaching those goals one by one be the focus rather then focus being straight chip or final four. What mean by that is example ( 1. reach 35 gbs in game , 6 cause turnovers , finish acc in top 2 , win acc regular season, beat team normally lose to (Nd be my guess) . Something like that reaching those goals making it little more to accomplish n also improving without so much pressure to just get to final four. Believe lars had something like that when he first took over uva. Beating duke was one winining acc game was another. [/QUOTE]
