Well, I am certainly not going to blast the guy for doing what we have all been saying he needed to do.

It does help explain why things have been so bad though, apparently nobody on the team, including the coaches knew what they hell they were doing on offense.

Is Brooks Hansen that absent-minded. Maybe with his NBA approach Penny leaned on someone that may have more knowledge and experience with installing that type of system. Since Penny is still learning himself he may have found out his players do not have the athletic ability and/or basketball IQ for the NBA style system. So what does he do? Go to something he is more familiar with and the players can adjust to.

I was with 247 when they were clamming about not being credited at times for breaking news but now I'm beginning to see why they are begging for new subscribers.

How as a coach do you run an offense when you yourself do not understand the offense?

Well that is both disturbing and encouraging... Disturbing our head coach did not know the offense down to the smallest detail but encouraging he finally accepted we needed change to an obviously broken system.

I think the whole "NBA offense" and "NBA prep" is a just a sales scheme. The NBA wants talent and do not really care much about the college system a player runs.

There is no doubt it is just a sales pitch.

NBA doesnt give a damn what offense they play in college, if they have NBA potential, then they are interested.

Bring in the jugglers, the elephants, and maybe even Rudd will swing on a trapeze. Ringling Bros has nothing on Tiger basketball

So that's why the recent uptick in posters here pushing 247 to those of us who are "missing out"?

This aint 1975. The "still learning" excuse doesnt work 3 years in for coaching at the high major level anymore.

Good. I hate this offense. I hate watching it when NBA teams run it. A made 2 is better than a missed 3.

What bothers me the most is he appears to throw Toppert under the bus.

The head of the snake takes that lick...Even if it is someone elses fault.

Keep it in house.

Toppert's Offense

Kids showcasing their abilities not playing as a team...Privately you can say that all you want...But you shouldn't air your dirty laundry.

Penny should take the majority of the pain and criticism publicly...He should invite it by saying he needs to get better at (X,Y,Z). But he only has one criticism for himself.

Penny is the face of the team. He should know the strengths and weaknesses of each player and assign roles based on that. Sounds like excuses.

RE: Penny says he's changing offense because ......
The biggest problem with Penny is that he is a loose cannon. Nobody had to know that he gave money to Wiseman's mom. The only way others would have known would be if he told someone. He didn't need to talk about winning national championships and wanting all the smoke. That was stupid. Now this comes out.

I'm not necessarily against him running the same offense he ran at East; but nobody had to know the reason why.

Yeah, there are several things that bother me about it. Just doesnt add up..

1. year one he said basically he just let Jeremiah do his thing.. ok, how does that offense differ from year 2 or 3 (except instead of Jeremiah its whomever has the ball).

2. I have heard Penny say numerous times "ALo knows how to run my offense" and I have heard others, color analysts, assistants, etc. etc. saying the same thing about Penny depending on ALo because he knows Penny's offense so well.

a couple of other things, but I am sure anyone reading this gets the point. It seems like some revisionism going on to justify things, and shift some of the blame.

I am glad to hear him say the bigs were going to start playing inside, but I dont believe that prior to this he didnt want them playing outside. Everytime Thomas comes into the games he starts jacking 3's like he is Reggie Miller and Penny never says a word or disciplines him for it.
