I know our star players are young, but what do they need to do to "right the ship".
I think they need to play tougher defense, more aggressive, and not just jump in the air everytime someone tries to fake you out of your shoes.
Be tougher inside on the offensive side, get the ball in to Noel and WCS. Wiltjer/Poythress/Goodwin need to be more aggressive taking the ball to the rim.
This team has plenty of talent, but are allowing themselves to get pushed around. I think they will be fine come February, but they need to toughen up quick...

They need to attack on offense more

- Keep up the intensity on the floor. I did like that much from them today but it's going to have to continue as they work things out.
- Work on finishing around the rim. We easily left 10-20 points out there within 5 feet.
- Helpside defense. If Noel is going for the block someone needs to move down to the opposite block in the case of a missed shot. It just doesn't happen at all with these guys.
- Harrow getting into the lane needs to happen more. He got some open looks (didn't fall, but certainly open). And opened things up for other guys.
- Goodwin needs to work on his FTs if he is going to go with driving to the basket to draw the foul.
