The UConn troll himself Jeff Goodman posted this today:
Below we take a look at 13 teams that have either taken a dip this season or failed to live up to expectations and talk to coaches regarding the reasons why they are struggling. We're not saying all these are NIT teams, but the potential is there if they can't get things fixed.
Connecticut Huskies (11-9, 4-4 American)
• Missing a stretch 4 (a la Niels Giffey or DeAndre Daniels)
• Need another ball handler to help Ryan Boatright
• Don’t shoot well enough from the perimeter
• No inside play
• Don’t make the extra pass (selfish)
• Leadership lacking
Can they make the tournament? Coaches' quotes:
“Don’t count them out. They believe in Kevin Ollie.”
“If Omar Calhoun and Sam Cassell Jr. play better and make shots. But offense is hard to get too much better at.”
Other 12 teams in article: Florida, Cuse, Pitt, Michigan, UNLV, Colorado, Memphis, Harvard, UCLA, Texas, Mich. St.
