I'll be critical of JJ's offense and refusing to move Simmons to the post, but I'm not sure what you want him to do with Blakeney

He can't throw the ball in the ocean right now. That's not coaching, he's missing open looks

At this point, Blakeney and Sampson are likely staying. If they arent, it means we've turned everything around

I have never see such a lack of fire by a coach. The players give such a lack of effort, and Johnny just sits and watches like nothing is going. This is one of the most athletic teams in the NCAA and the worst defensively. All attributed to lack of effort. He has to demand more from his players, or put someone out there who actually cares about defense.

I think they're gone because the NBA drafts on athleticism, physical tools, and upside, which both these long and athletic guys have in abundance. Sure, Blakeney is throwing up bricks, but that will change. He's still a natural shooter.

I assure you, NBA scouts aren't repelled from these guys' potential just because they are in JJ's shite-show offense.

Put him on the bench. He was invisible outside of his poor shooting last night over 37 minutes. TQ and Hornsby gave you more than enough guard play.
