Message: [QUOTE="mauconnfan, post: 2462945, member: 489"] I'm having trouble looking at .500 the way they are playing. KO needs to get into larrier and Adams first and foremost and get them all in. I hate to say they are not "UConn" players as we all know what our program has been used to from a kid. I think Terry is trying to be and maybe we are expecting too much from him, he needs to improve some parts of his game. Jalen is between the ears and the chest too, needs to get his rear parallel to the ground and start guarding people like Boat, Kemba, Ricky - work as hard to keep his guy in front of him and fight on top of picks not lazily around them. It's KO's job to get that out of him there were no stars in JC's days, you f up you get the quick yank, needs to make its way back with a JC stare and a couple quick words of wisdom. Fire her these a**es is a start. Can't have too much 3 guard offense because if you have both Vital and Anderson in at the same time it seems to sometimes show their weaknesses. Not sure what it is but neither are great passers and Jalens decisions haven't been good so 3 at the same time? Not good. They need to find out who else can play together, Polley may need some rope, Whaley may need some time (amazed he didn't play against the Cuse I don't care how skinny her is at least he jumps and fights), Polley still has something there, Cobb needs to get his wind so he can go 20-25 at least and Diarra needs to be taught to quit bouncing around and D and getting lost. More important he gets lost near the rim because the kid can rebound the ball. Can they play zone more, with some work in practice of course? I mean in a nutshell they have some talent, need more, but can win games. I'm just not sure they can beat anyone they're not supposed to. Most of this is on KO, some on Gilbert not being there and some on the leaders. One way or another a lot has to change or changes there will be. [/QUOTE]
