[QUOTE="jrichisamazing, post: 1359242, member: 8500"] I guess you can be mad at the coaching staff. Or you could be mad at the lack of talent. Both the truth is both the players and the coaches are still adjusting to each other. We talk a lot about the players not knowing the system yet. But we forget that BU doesn't know which buttons to press yet either. Earlier this year, BU tried to close games out with Alstork and Tejon. That didn't work. Tonight he tried putting the ball in Frazier's hands, that didn't work. The players don't know how to win yet, but the coaches don't either. And there's nothing wrong with that, it takes time and nobody knows how long. As for talent, yes we need more of it, but if the players and coaches were comfortable with each other and on the same page we have enough to make the tournament. I'm not giving up hope yet, but it's obviously an uphill battle. Things could click tomorrow or it might take another 2 months. [/QUOTE]
