Theres a lot of different thoughts on this season so far. I think its hard to just give BU and Co. a pass because this is year one. He doesn't seem to think that so I wont either.
Its been a heavily disappointing season so far. We are about 2 made free throws and a couple completed in bound passes away from having zero (or at least a couple fewer) losses. I know theres some sort of saying that good teams keep games close and win, bad teams keep games close and lose (its more elegant but thats the jist) but compared to how we lost to teams in the Groce era, these are improvements (whether you want to think of a loss as good or not).
No reason to think this team is capable of being a top half B1G THIS YEAR. Question is when is this improvement going to happen, if it even does, cause there has been very very little over the first thirdish of the schedule.
