Has to find some way to explain why all these great recruits he raved about, cannot shoot a lay up or even dribble the ball without bouncing it off their own foot.
TC, Nichols is not much of a "beast" when facing big teams. He and Shaq both need to add 15 to 20 lbs of muscle.
The Recruits i Raved about that's LEFT, are Markel who is good and getting better as i stated....Austin who is a beast right now.. And Shaq but who has decreased for some reason and Trashon Burrell and those are the best players left are they not?....Yes your right it is my Opinion, but just how many times has Josh beat down top ranked teams....How many times must we get destroyed by top ranked teams, before everyone see's there is a big problem?...Again he just seems inconsistant and Overwhelmed and it REALLY shows when we play the Top Ranked Teams....How many players under his watch have degreased, and how many have blossomed and developed.....Those are Opinions, but our eyes see what they see.....The World Is Ours Memphis....

Who's fault is it that we have all these players that can't dribble or make layups? The midget ref?

Talked to multiple people who know CBB (including former Tiger players)-privately the consensus is, at this point , we have 3 HIGH D1 players who are
ready. Nichols, Burrell and Shaq. Crawford is working his way into that group but Shaq is falling out as a "pretty boy" who
fiddles with his hair while running back on D and appears to be uninterested. Another point brought up by most is we lack physical and mental toughness.
The others would not play or be relatively minor role players at other
high D1 CBB programs (don't confuse this with #ChosenFive conference teams such as a Missisippi St.). Don't shoot the messenger.

Mixed bag-some feel he is growing into job; some know about APR requirements that do RESTRICT his recruiting. Some former Tigers are peeved because he has not hired more former Tigers (like themselves). Some think he is over his head; amazingly kind of like this forum. But all pretty much agree on talent level.
Wouldn't know Easterwood if i saw him.

Agree with this. It doesn't even have to be muscle. Just add some weight to both.

Timely article on ESPN: Can UConn, other elite programs be fixed?
They have talked to some of same folks I have.
Memphis Tigers (13-8, 6-3 American)
• Guard play, in particular point guard play; leads to inability to get into offensive rhythm
• Poor leadership and chemistry
• Shaq Goodwin inconsistent, struggling in league play
• Too many new guys
• Pieces don’t fit
Can they make the tournament? Coaches' quotes:
“Yes, but not this year. They have to upgrade the point guard position.”
“They are playing harder and are defending, but they just aren’t as talented as they have been.”
