I know the team has MANY areas it can improve upon, but consider this:
Minus the Providence game (a one possession deficit), we have not trailed at the half in ANY of the other 19 games...pretty damn impressive. So I honestly ask you, what makes us a crappy second half team? Are we not physically conditioned (doubt it)? Are we running out there with completely different players (no)? Our bench was damn sure deep enough in the early part of the season where our depth was mentioned among the best in the country.
Do the coaches not see the need to adjust to anything as we are always leading at the half? I don't understand when people always say "well it's the Big East and teams know us better and scout us better, etc. Why aren't WE aware of our opponent's tendencies and how to shut them down and finish off games?
Rant over.
