[QUOTE="alaskaillini, post: 1517643, member: 531679"] Agree with all your points. However, after the game I pulled up lasts year's win over MSU on the DVR and watched it for comparison purposes (especially after Dakich recalled his comment before Ayo drained his second late 3). While the pressure defense may not have consistently provided UI with the best chance of winning, when it worked it was beautiful. We may have only won 12 games last year but that team played the game in a way that made it really fun to watch (especially in comparison to the style that had preceded it). Don't get me wrong, winning is better, but I appreciate the attraction of playing aggressive defense and at a face pace on offense. It has taken Ayo a while to figure out how to play at the slower pace. Moving from PG has seemed to help. Maybe he has more time and can focus more on making plays without the ball in his hands as much. [/QUOTE]
