At least Kansas fans have to be more disappointed with how the season is going than UK fans.

Roy needs to go next year as to be his last year, or this program will fall into UCLA territory

Carolina was down 5 or 6 when they got the ball right back on a steal (following a horrible turnover in the lane). The dude who made the steal drove the baseline and threw up an ill-advised bank shot, meanwhile 2 teammates are standing and watching from the 3-point line and not trying to get the rebound. If that's the way they play most of the time, they're not going to be a .500 team in this ACC.

They were down 3, Tokoto got the steal, Paige and MacDonald were spotting up and they should have gotten the ball or maybe Roy should know his player and as soon at JP got he steal call time out becuase you knew he was going to do something stupid.

I hope they fire Roy just so goldie will go away. He'd still bitch anyway though. Maybe I should just shoot him instead.

Yeah, he could have thrown it to one of the guys behind the arc but when he started to drive to the hoop, both those guys should have been running into the paint for a rebound. Instead, they just stood and watched.

You can blame the coach and you won't be wrong but that kind of shit is indicative of how the game is played today. Thus, the larger blame must lie at the feet of high school and middle school coaches who aren't teaching any fundamentals. Fuckin' retards.

I've heard the same thing said of small town newspaper editors not teaching the next generation about how to be a good newspapermen (that's almost Germanic - flapjacken!). Nay, I've seen it!

Things have changed so much in the last 12 years, kids are so uncoach-able now a days.

I have coached for 20 years now counting Rec league in college but the last 4 or 5 years they have gotten so bad.

Today I was working on a close out drill and if they offensive player happened to get the ball they could take a few dribble and get a shot off, I wanted them to put an hand in the face and box out. They were so bad at it, they all went for the block and hardly ever turned to box out.

They love the block shot, and the cross over dribble they thinking making some one fall is the best thing. They all over dribble and a lot of is the AAU circuit because that is all about individual skills and not team in most cases.

So today I am going back to the super basics and becoming a hard ass again.

After like 10 minutes I had to go back over on how to box out this is a skill they should have but they dont.
