Couple of perfectly decent to good transfers in Gibbs and Miller who were fun. But literally almost every other guy has been a dumpster fire, left Uconn or grossly underperformed expectations. I'm not sure he has the best eye for talent. The locker room basically mutinied on him last year. The school's still chasing football money and with that program being a half-tick up from barely conscious, the conference situation isn't changing. Kids aren't dumb - they see that. The whole thing is basically snowballing in front of everyone. I literally can't believe I'm like this after losing a pre-season game of all things, but I can't ever remember seeing a UConn team to obviously un-ready to play basketball... ever. And I just think it starts at the top. It's too much of the same thing. It's running pro-sets with players who just aren't good enough to run that style of an offense. It's a general lack of intensity. It's good players plateau-ing. The one or two obviously talented kids on the team are really good players and make waves nationally, but they're not developed as much as they could be - so you don't see guys like Allen, Hamilton, Butler, etc anymore. I love the guy, but i'm tired of defending him.I don't think he's really that great of a college basketball coach. I could totally see him being great in the NBA, but this is just... it's not good.
