it's how they are lost. Over the last few years this team could go for 10 minute stretches where they have more turnovers than made field goals.

True. And it is maddening to watch. I don't know if you can totally eliminate the lulls but they should be curtailed with the roster on hand. It's totally correct to call that out, but I don't know if a blanket "We get out coached in the X quarter every year" is a fair assessment.

It ties into your link on the offense (lack of imagination/creativity) and Ziller's Hook from today on assists and offense. On offense, talent will win out over scheme. As much as we love some of the guys that play here, there hasn't been much talent the past couple years. Now that there is talent, we need to see those droughts reduced.

I have my doubts that Monty can accomplish that but he's had one game with his top 5 guys. Way too early to judge either way.
