RE: Legit question, your opinion?
I think I already gave my opinion on it maybe two weeks ago or more. I just don't see much capability of significant upside. Sure, they'll win some games, but won't likely be dominating *anybody* not named Lenoir-Rhyne or Catawba. Even our guard play, stellar up until recently, seems to have gotten mired in the mud. We just don't have the horses, and I'll again repeat my opinion that Oliver should have put one more body on the (active) bench. That view was suspecting maybe an injury at some point, but with Adheke's departure, it sure would have been nice now. Worse.................the "chemistry", something I've always commented on on this board, is lacking. It's not terrible, but it's not positive enough to be an additive force.
All this shouldn't be surprising - but maybe the degree to which it's turning out is. New coach, new culture, new teammates, etc. I personally think Oliver hasn't yet found his sweet spot, mojo, m.o., regimen, whatever. He's still trying to figure it out, too, altho he'd never say that, and may not even realize it himself. All my opinion, of course.
