[QUOTE="alaskaillini, post: 1175852, member: 531679"] And the people on here calling for his head are college basketball experts? If you want to ignore circumstances and only look at final scores, so far this year, he may not be a good coach. But if you look at how other teams are affected by the loss of one player (i.e. MSU, or Duke having problems with Long Beach State today) then being competitive with 3 seniors and a sophomore missing from the roster is not an easy task. So far Groce has been successful at scheming a game plan to get his teams the lead by half time. If you are winning how much are you going to change what you are doing. It is not half time adjustments that are the problem, it is adjusting to the other teams halftime adjustments during the game where some issue lies. With a full roster, a coach has a lot of tools to use to make these adjustments. With only 8 scholarship players active today and four of those being freshmen, options to make adjustments are very limited. But then again many of the experts on here look no further than the won-loss record for validation of their opinions. [/QUOTE]
