The team doesn't pass the eye test because they aren't well coached on offense. They are a clunky disorganized mess. Rowe doesn't like to call a lot of plays or sets and prefers to give his players lots of freedom to create. Not good if your team has nobody with dribble drive skills. With Rowe at the helm the Whole has been less than the sum of the parts.

For those thinking it takes more than one year for a college basketball coach to make his mark you are not paying attention. With JUCOs and grad transfers supplementing high school/prep school recruits you can win immediately IF you are a good recruiter and good coach.
Rowe failed miserably in his first recruiting class and we already witnessed his inability to coach the existing players.

List of JMU coaches who had fewer wins in their first year than the previous year...
John Thurston, Sherman Dillard, Dean Keener, Louis Rowe. Yep, this is loser's row.
On top of that Rowe had the WORST regression of any coach in JMU hoops history leading his team to 12 less wins in his first year.

Keener inherited a mess and proved he wasn't the man to fix it.
Thurston and Dillard inherited a program in good shape and ruined it.
Rowe inherited a program in better shape than any of them and he sucked hind tit this year.

It is not okay to have this happen in a high profile sport when the move was intentional and deliberate by the administration. Rowe and Bourne are in the top 10 highest paid employees at JMU and they must be held to a higher standard than an average Joe.
