That narrative game log, coupled with what we saw on offense, just screams a team that played with an [uncharacteristic] lack of focus and intensity. Not a team whose gameplans are so horrible that we need to burn the playbook and start anew.

We can speculate for days as to why/how a team who had lost 3 of 4 leading up to that SJU game comes out and lays such a spectacular egg on their home court, but we'll likely never know for sure.

Saturday was the start of move-in for Spring semester. Hurley & Co were away in Springfield. Did some of the guys have too much fun Saturday night? Who knows, but it's possible. The Women's team also played pretty badly right after them and Azzi re-injured her knee.  Did someone forget to burn the sage to appease the XL Center evil spirits?

What's most important is that the coaches/players need to reflect and figure it out ASAP.  Honestly, I think overthinking and radical changes are a trap at this point. Would endorse a 1-2 personnel tweaks.

Only about 1 day until another tough away game in a hostile environment. We're still ranked, so the number on our back is still large.
