My issues lie in rotations and in game adjusments. Seems like McMahon is content with forcing his scheme on his players rather than adjusting his scheme to fit his players. I feel like we would have much more success if players like Dean, Fountain, and Collins were allowed more freedom and we ran more sets for them offensively. Even last year, McMahon insisted on playing the same players even when there were seemingly better options on the bench (Ward and Phillips not playing for example).

Yes, his rotations have certainly been questionable at times and at the very least debatable.

I think even he has to be seeing now that Baker is not earning the minutes he's getting and that he still runs several sets for him a game is maddening.

Lack of in game adjustments can be seen in our most recent loss against aTm. Williams was outplaying Cook on both sides of the court yet he was subbed out in crucial moments for Cook who was cold.

That was something I noticed two, he did bench Cook for Williams once and I know late game is different, senior vs. freshman, but Cook took 3 very ill advised step back threes down the stretch and made none of them and none were even close to going in. Hell the last shot which could have tied it we called time out with 7 seconds on the shot clock to set a play and Cook ended up taking an awkward shot that he probably would have taken had they not called the TO.
