re: Will Wade = Kirby Smart of Basketball?

We had good leads in the Utah St. and USC games, but once those teams made a good play or two and started to get momentum, Jovonte had back to back bad shots and turnovers and next thing you know its a one possession game. You can look at bonehead plays by him against VCU too. If Jovonte has his head out of his arse this year we have 1or 2 losses this year. Etsu kicked our arse in every way

We took a step back because we lost two nba players and the administration hindered the program. It’s not like football where the same 5 teams are the best every year... take Texas tech as an example. Did you watch Johnny Jones? We didn’t even run in bounds plays... Will is a fine in game coach

It’s hard to ignore the fact he won an SEC Championship in his second year with the program. He recruited players to fit his vision for what he wanted for an offense and addressed a deficiency in rebounding and rim protection.

My criticism of him is he didn’t come close to replacing those guys from last year and is trying to incorporate the same philosophy. 6’6 Emmitt Williams is trying to play 6’11 KBW’s role. Jevonte Smart is trying to play Waters’ role and Watford is trying to step into Reid’s role. And it’s not working.

I’m disappointed that we played a European Tour, 2 scrimmages and 11 games and we’re still turning the ball over like we’re playing a summer pick up game with nothing on the line. Im disappointed that we have 5 key contributors back from an SEC Championship team, a top 20 overall McDonald’s all-American player and a really good JUCO transfer addition and we’ve lost 4 games to currently unranked teams. I’m disappointed that we have a roster of guys that can supposedly shoot from outside and we’re ending up 3-17 behind the arc. Likewise, I’m disappointed that in year three we still can’t employ a defense that can close out on three point shooters, so that a team that averages 6 a game ends up hitting 11 against us, which seems to happen often.

I know you can make some comparisons between this team’s early season chemistry problems and last year’s team before they found themselves but I just don’t see that success repeating if we’re going to try to play the same philosophy with players that can’t fill the same roles.

Just my frustrated take on this year’s results to this point.

You gotta bitch about something

Nobody cares about last year. This year, the team's coaching and recruiting deficiencies are obvious.

I want Wade to be a success, but it doesn't look like it is going to happen.

I’m not even convinced he is a good recruiter. I mean, sure, give him enough money and he will get a few blue chips

You can't be serious? In 8 months or so WW has totally forgotten how to coach and recruit? You probably wish Alleva and FKing were still making decisions at LSU to implode whomever coaches at LSU.
