Message: [QUOTE="EASTFLA, post: 3847391, member: 10791"] I like Hurley because the #1 function of a coach is to recruit, and he can do that, but to your point, his offense is so predictable, and I'll say it to death. Why are we trying to get shots for guys that shoot in the 30s? That is how our possessions end-all too frequently. It is baffling to me. He openly admits the offense is not there, but what mitigation efforts have taken place to add to it? I have seen none. If this keeps up, kids aren't going to want to play in an offense that is designed as it is, no fast breaks, no leak outs. We had I believe 9 assists on 25 hoops last game. It isn't because we can't pass it is because too many possessions end with a rushed shot off a high ball screen after milking the clock walking the ball up, and weaving, leaving about 10 seconds to find something. When Polley is in the game he gets a high volume of shots (usually). This while we have a guy shooting 46% from out there, and we don't look for him at all. We have a guy in the paint, that has better footwork as a freshman than most seniors that can score off either shoulder and he gets 5 shots a game, 4 out of the offense. It's ridiculous. [/QUOTE]
