[QUOTE="IdahoIllini, post: 1435111, member: 746160"] Losing Leron simply should not be an excuse for losing. Teams have attrition every year due to graduation, transfer, etc. Everybteam deals with it. I actually heard one of our post game radio guys say recently what hurt in groce’s last team the most was Hill graduating. Like you didn’t see that coming four years prior? It’s a silly argument. As far as the fouls go, we foul at such a high rate because we are forcing guys to play a style and system that is ill-fitted for their skillsets. Our roster would be much better suited using a packline defense and clogging up the lane. Instead, we pressure creating huge gaps that our guys have no chance to close and recover. We simply don’t have the athleticism or quickness. I get that Underwood wants to establish his system, but at what cost? Wins apparently. [/QUOTE]
