This is one of the rare cases where I think the problem is much more the players than the coach.

We've lost several close games. In those games, fundamental player mistakes were the main issue.

I have a hard time believing our coaches tell our players to take shots 5ft beyond the arc early in the shot clock, yet some of our players keep trying to do this.

The combination of no interior depth, and the new basketball rules kill us at the moment. Has Ware had a game yet in SEC play where he didn't have 2 fouls in the first 10 minutes?

Bingo, due to the lack of both bodies and talent the best weapon a coach has for discipline is taken away from him.

We can not even sit a man down to settle his nerves much less for doing dumb shite.

Makes it no easier to watch but I believe good times they are a commin'

Pretty accurate assumption. Regardless, watching this team versus Ray's first team is lightyears difference. Or even Ray's last team for that matter. (And I was one of the bigger Ray fans) Depth is still an issue on this team much like Ray's first.

I agree it's more the players. Howland can recruit good players, I hope he turns it around. He might be just riding this season out till he gets his players in...at least I hope so because we are very undisciplined and make stupid errors.
