We all follow a team and coaching staff that 'strive for perfection' and we all see them fall short on a daily basis. To comment on those 'failures' either in a general way or with specifics of  Xs and Os is what fans do, so no need to defend yourself.

I have found this year a little strange as we seem to have a higher level of negativity for so early in the season. I wonder if it is maybe based on higher expectations coming into this season than last year, or maybe even a higher general angst in our society?

Every year is a learning curve for the team and a much larger one for the freshmen and things start to gel around the start of the new year. Last year with only one freshman expected to contribute and the two sophomores being pretty special players the gelling occurred quickly while the expectations were for the team to suffer multiple losses before the NCAAs - so maybe people just forgot what it was like watching sophomore, junior, and even senior Moriah throwing up bricks from the arc through Christmas as she struggled to manage each year's new team.
