This. We ran the same clear out, same side, same entry to Coleman over and over. To think that the hall of fame opposing coach isn't going to adjust to that is just silly.
You're an insider and carry some weight here. I've been pounding this drum through this whole thread.
Can we tack your post up? It's the personnel, end of story. No good options
Yep ... Dad's coaching at the rec center (Me and I am sure many of you guys as well ... Lol ...) make that adjustment ...
Maddening ...
And the worst part of that is that it works for him
Want me to make a compilation of Domask either getting his pocket picked, bouncing it off his foot or making a horrible first pass? It’ll take a while cause that’s a lot of clips, but Ty and Hawkins have both done much better jobs bringing the ball up the court and initiating offense.
And yet Baylor is NOT better than us so far this year.

This is the most damning comment yet. Like a Little League coach out coaching MLB manager.
I love me some Daddy Brad.....but these post game excuses and blame game won't win in March. Period.
Just feels like a chemistry issue. Clear individual efficiency discrepancies pre/post suspension.
The Illini’s “defense” is most concerning. MSU scored 88, and it’s not like they were hitting a high percentage of tough, contested shots like Nebraska did. WAY too many interior scores.
We would have needed Sigmund Freud as offensive coordinator to fix last years problems. Tyler is doing a good job on O this year with the limitations we have (no true Point). Just was unaware he was calling the shots offensively this year. The D has to change and quick. Did Hammer run D to start the year? If he did not sure why he is trying to fix/change what wasn't broke.
Before today, I was not aware that our defense is being run by a grad assistant, and our offense by our youngest, 1st year assistant coach, who happens to be the son of the head coach. If this is really the case, it is frankly EMBARRASSING. What in the world? What supposedly top level program gives such critical responsibilities to rookie staff members?
The first half of the season, when our defense was considered lock solid and really a core strength of the team, seems so long ago. Something needs to change in terms of these responsibilities. I have been the director of a high profile organization, and would never even consider anything like this. Sorry to be so blunt but our defense in particular has just taken a nosedive.
It absolutely can. We SHOULD win the rest of our games this month. If we don't then I will start to have some serious concerns about getting deep in March Madness. Still believe and trust in this team
Step back threes and threes off the dribble aren't highlight plays? Beilein flat out said we settled for ill advised
quick threes and pull ups. But if you feel TSJ taking 9 or 10 threes a game is playing to his strengths I have a feeling Beilein and I certainly disagree with you. With in the flow of the offense is fine but off the dribble early in the clock when other things are working effectively isn't ideal.

Hamer is not a grad assistant ... He is a full-time assistant coach ...
Well in Hamens defense the defense was playing without one of the best defenders and rebounders during that stretch today.
Or are Hamen and Tyler in charge of substitutions too?
