How would you guys grade the job Oats has done in his first two weeks?

I would go A+ but I have to leave room to go up if we get Watford, and/or Bolden.

I'd give him a very solid A so far.

I think Bolden will be our main two guard next year and will probably play about 25+ minutes a game if we get him. He has the ability to slide over to point when Kira needs a break.

That was obviously written by someone who is clueless about college basketball coaches.

Yeah, it's going to be really hard for Oats to surpass getting 17 wins a season...

The thing is i dont think he had good shooters on his team. They shot well because they got good shots if that makes any sense. Im pretty sure he said something along that line in an interview. Also he keeps offering slashers who arent shooters lol.

They also shot a ton of 3s. It's all about creating good looks and pulling the trigger. If most of the shots your team takes are layups/dunks, uncontested 3s, and FTs you're going to score a bunch of points.

Apparently he was offered by the former staff as well. Maybe we are already in good shape with him?

He is offering slashers because we have guards who can shoot, what we don’t have are many good ball handlers.

Can you find this quote where you say he claims he didnt have good shooters? I havent seen it. CJ Massinburg is one of the best shooters in the country. Even their big man shot a higher three point percentage than Kira Lewis who was probably our most consistent three point shooter.

So Mick fricking Cronin is a better hire than CNO? A guy that coached at a basketball school with literally decades of good history manages to not be a complete disaster and gets them in the Dance every year from a weak league but can’t ever get past the first weekend. Or the guy that took a school that’s been playing basketball for a hundred years without a tournament appearance takes them to 4 consecutive, wins the most games in a season in conference history and takes them to #14 in the polls at a backwater school.

Yeah, fansided is full of shite.

The Sacred Heart basketball account literally called John Petty trash on twitter. WTF.

quote:

1A Ball??? Diante Played against 50 Division 1 Recruits while playing at Class A school. Not AAU, but School Ball. That’s more than Petty, Kira, Herb, Reese, etc... What was Jones and Petty excuse for not adapting well? 5A Petty top 25 recruit. His arse (trash can emoji).

Holy shite balls. That is unreal

Your arguments message still holds but your facts are wrong here

Buffalos first NCAAT was under Bobby Hurley

Nate Oats went to NCAAT in 3/4 years. Two of those by AQ

Why you gotta call players trash? Seriously I would expect better from a team account. Didnt work for Diante at Bama and hope he has success elsewhere...but dont call our other players trash.
