Message: [QUOTE="Marbles90, post: 5204407, member: 7436"] For me the season could be summed up on one play: Smith and Ball going for a loose ball near the midcourt sideline. Smith shoves Ball out of the way. Ball goes flailing to the floor while Smith picks up the ball and glides in for a score. It looked like a bigger kid bullying a smaller kid on the playground. I think this team just lacks toughness. All the criticism about the coaching staff, I would bet they never thought lack of toughness would be an issue and unfortunately, it is very hard to teach/coach. Now, I know a bunch of BY'ers will blame the refs for not calling a foul on Smith but blaming the refs gets you nowhere. Fighting through the adversity of what the opponent is dishing out and how the game is being called is all about toughness - physical and mental. [/QUOTE]
