re: It's official. I can't stand this team.

I'm more concerned with his actual coaching.

That's the perplexing thing for me. I criticized Haith for his coaching acumen every chance I got last season. But this year, I've seen his coaching improve over last year.

So, I'm of the opinion that the players just aren't running the system. Last year, Flip was the problem. This year, there is literally no offense to run with the collection of players we have. I've got to continue to see improvement in coaching acumen next year. No doubt about it.

I also think the loss of Nester really hurt us

More than any of us can know. I think he was the glue during Haith's first year, and they ran him off. From what I understood, they wanted him to spend a lot more time on the road recruiting, and he wanted to focus more on the Xs and Os. Which I can understand given his age, he was in his mid to late 50s, I think.

Anyway, I agree - we are really missing his presence. No one is filling the role he managed so well.

I'm just saying he didn't want to spend all his time on the road recruiting. He was sort of done with that. He didn't want to be a primary recruiter anymore, and that's what haith wanted. So he went elsewhere. I can understand it. When your a manager of people, you use people to their best abilities. I just didn't think, based on what I heard, that they were doing that with Nestor.
