They are very bad this year. They are scrappy on the boards, but then can't convert the put-back from 2 feet when they get the offensive rebound. They are terrible from the free throw line. How many 3's did Long Beach make last night? They leave the shooters wide open constantly. They can't pass the ball and I am shocked by the fall off in recruiting. I really thought Nikki would be able to attract a lot of talent. She did a good job of recruiting at UCLA but it is not happening here. She does seem to get the teams to come on down the stretch, but I think we may be the worst team in the conference this year and even if we get Ballard back..there is very little help elsewhere. Moncrief and Harden are too inconsistent and no one else can score. I expect us to finish last or at least very near the bottom. Nikki has been a big disappointment.

I'd also add that she is vastly overpaid.
