Some will say we underachieved this year, some will say we had an awesome season. Some will blame the coach and others will blame the players and defend the coach to no end. Should be good entertainment here for the next few days!

Playing the ball too far from the basket; not playing King and Woodson enough; not teaching the players how to take charges.

With the rule changes we aren't built to be a great defensive team; but we are built to blow people out of the building. You can't have two of your senior guards shooting 25% from 3 point land and expect to win games; it just isn't going to happen.

5/15 from the line, including a few missed front ends.

I don't mind missing shots I mind allowing teams to shoot 60% on you and giving up career highs night in and night out.

Under the old rules, Geron and Dixon were proven elite defenders. Under the new rules, I certainly expected us to be better; but I'm not surprised that we are average.

When you are tiny, you have to be able to hit from the outside; it's as simple as that.

Average...Really...We are a poor defensive team and it is not all on the rules...It is not all on ball defense...It is also team defense...Post defense...Help Defense...It is all of it.

It begins and ends with the coach. I remember the days when we had a coach we respected for his coaching abilities. Those were much different days than now. You can keep your 4 star and 5 star kids. We may have a head coach, but in title only.
