Message: [QUOTE="Hoophound, post: 2488768, member: 271"] There are big confidence issues resulting in the bad shooting. While we need more shooters, Adams, Vital, Larrier and Anderson should provide better shooting than they are. They aren’t pure shooters and two of them have quirky form but they’ve all shot much better in the past. The problem is the confidence level of this team is in the toilet and the whole mess is snowballing. Adams, Larrier, Vital, Cobb and Anderson should be able to scrap with most any team and lose by 10 points or so. Getting absolutely blown out by every decent team is an obvious indicator of coaching issues. Look at that lineup in vacuum. Adams and Larrier are “stars”, Vital is a hardworking team guy that used to be able to make shots, Cobb is gifted for a big guy. He needs development but his coordination and skills are great and Anderson is a very experienced and solid D1 veteran. It is hard to look at them and think some other coach would have as much trouble keeping games against top teams closer and beating a terrible Columbia team comfortably. This group isn’t great, but it should be better than this. [/QUOTE]
