It's not coaching

I loved seeing Hawk screaming in the huddle with before the final play.

Only to watch Sanogo and Jackson not even jump for a rebound.

If I were hawk, I’d be screaming the whole ride home for anyone who wants or doesn’t want to listen.

It's mentally soft players. Full stop.
It's definitely part coaching. Both seton hall and St johns can't shoot. We play a 2-3 zone with DC in the middle we don't get in foul trouble and we don't lose. Seton Hall is small - now way they could handle the both of them on the Offensive end. Instead we adjust our lineup to the other team's lineup like we always do. And how Clinigan wasn't in to protect the rim at the end there is a coaching felony!!!!

Screaming is wonderful.. However he was invisible in the second half, which is ridiculous for a supposed lottery pick.. and worse yet, it’s a trend

It's all coaching. Hurley took the long process of building this thing and has talked nonstop about culture and toughness. It's now year 5 with nothing to show for it and we're still as fragile as it gets. Five seasons with a bunch of different players throughout and they always wilt.

Meanwhile Sean Miller comes in year one and has his team ranked #8 in the country and they look like an offensive juggernaut. Shaka Smart comes into Marquette and takes them to the tournament his first season and now they're #20 in the country in his second season. UConn has a lot more talent than either team on paper. I can name a bunch of other coaches who turned their programs around right away.

It's all about coaching or a lack of coaching.
 
No, but Sanogo on the floor instead of Clingan to defend against a final shot up one sure as hell is.

If Clingan is in on defense, he grabs that rebound and we win. That’s coaching.
We wouldn’t be in that position if Sanogo would’ve made the damn layup lol. We didn’t lose because of “coaching” tonight. We lost because our players have turned into mental midgets at any sight of adversity and pressure

You're right, because SH only got 3 offensive rebounds in the 2h alone while he was on the floor. No chance he was giving up a 4th.
 
I mean Sanogo front ended a wide open layup to go up 3 with 50 seconds. That’s not coaching
Who created the offensive and defensive styles? Who puts in the lineups? At some point the defending of the ineptitude has got to stop. That’s how we get here. Four years of this. That missed layup didn’t cost us the game. How about the 10+ turnovers in the second half trying to force feed sanogo and giving up a double digit lead. Again

He's had good games and great games. Very few bad games this year so mentioning him for this game doesn't take away from coaching plays and what coaches allow. What about all losses prior? These kids need leadership from a point guard and better coaching.

Yes but it coaching too. The plan is designed for an inefficient high usage center. It was a nice thought but sample size is in. And then we added a big usage inefficient point guard. Nice numbers ( Newton last year at ECU, Sanogo last two years) but ultimately losing players to build around. Sanogo shot under 50 tonight that’s unacceptable for a center, I’ve been saying that for two years I didn’t even like his usage in creighton win. It’s long term fools gold. And combine that with how many turnovers we get trying to force feed him via coaching and we see what we get. Nice kid good player. Not a centerpiece. As long as he is a centerpiece instead of a piece this is us.
