I believe Kevin Ollie is a good coach and of course he can improve as we all can. He has become upset to where he's a little "at wits end" in appearance to this viewer. Here's some points I'd like to make as an observer:
1. First and foremost, when I see the coach on the bench, my wife and I see "whiney face". Im so sorry I have to say it, really. Look in the mirror KO and work on it, your a great guy, great teamate and care a bunch. Uconn is blessed to have you. Show them why. Many players have developed the same "face". Attitude is everything to a team.
2. Bench em even if the walk-ons need to play when they are playing without full effort. I MEAN IT. Other guys are itching to play. You'll see, people will step up. Comunicate with other coaches. It works for Geno, he's successful in what he does. Why not get his take, it couldnt hurt. How does he deal with "attutude"?
3. Teach the post, with a "post players coach", please, please, please, oh please. YoU are Anemic when it comes to passing into the post. To Enoch especially. Teach Facey how to move the ball with his hands to avoid a block. Hes good, just needs coaching. He has serious natural ability. There is a WELL of offense not being tapped.... Allow the other teams to get their BIG MEN IN FOUL TROUBLE.
4. Four or five guys on the offensive end are looking at a long jump shot going up, like its an airplane, UFO or something, standing in this huge semi-circle. We are taught better than that in jr high. Sorry for being rude. Ive seen it so much, its very dissapointing. Tell em to go to the hoop when it goes up, look for a man to box out...do something. It looks bad for sure. Maybe they watch too much tv or something...
5. Miller is jogging down court so often. Ive seen many shots go up and hes nowhere near half court. And its not like it was a fast break shot attempt either. You see the film.
5. Understand that there are other people watching film and seeing Hamliton spin, Gibbs always go left on the right side, Miller never turning baseline to the hoop, Rodney.....and much more. Enlarge their "game" for them. Other coaches are finding ways to stop what they see on film.
6. Always remember, they are still young.
7. EVERYBODY KEEP YOUR HANDS UP. Gee whiz.
8. Jalen, you will not dominate here like in high school. Attack smartley, and stop whining and wagging your head, its time to be a man. Sorry dude, i was there once myself as a player. It never, EVER helps you or the team. Tough love.
9. For whom it may concern; Its not about YOU psuedo-teamate. You know who you are. You probably think this blog is about you, dont you....
10. There are good things, but its not the topic for today.
