a mediocre defense that seems to let people drive by them at times (this is still a watch in progress, but I expect it is not going to get much better),
Why do you not expect it to get much better? Just for the sake of being negative? We've played two games against two very strong offenses.

Because the competition will be better and if you do not know how to move your feet against a team that is not going to make the tournament you won't move your feet against a tournament team. Defense is largely a skill that someone (coach) makes you do. Trent Johnson could coach defense but was apparently lazy or did not care when it came to recruiting.
Don't get me wrong, the program is on the upswing and getting more competitive. I just like to see coaching to go along with talent. Another aspect of coaching is running some type of half court offense when the fast break is not there. We seem to have some trouble with running a half court offense.
