Again, our offense is terrible! It?s 1 v 1, ball screen, and whoever can get an offensive rebound put back. Just on ball screens, no back picks, and absolutely no low post screens. It?s not fun to watch bc it?s boring, and 1 guy has to be red hot for anybody else can score. How many times do you see an entry pass from wing to the low post per game, or high low game? Exactly!
Not sure what to read into (if anything) kenpom ratings this early, but it likes us so far...
#36 overall
#29 offense
#52 defense
Last year...
#33 overall
#24 offense
#46 defense
Our offense has been top 30 now for over a year now.
Kenpom on Iowa st...
#8 overall
#26 offense
#3 defense
We played them in pretty much a road game. It was ugly for sure, but they're a damn good team and it isn't new...
2024 kenpom - 8th
2025 kenpom - 11th
If Ole Miss didn?t hire Beard our fan base would not be antsy with Jans. Beard got them to the sweet 16 in year 2 and they look good again, so I think that contributes to the critics. I love Jans and think he is a great coach, but that small grouping does have a point that as good as Jans is, Ole Miss made a bigger splash and has better results the past 2 years overall.
Beard is absolutely better than Jans. Maybe bill self will choke his wife out and we can hire an elite coach too.Quote:

Making the post season consistently should be our standard. What happens from there happens. Basically, you are saying Stans was more successful because he won 1 more game most of the years he went to the tourney? That's ridiculous. It also took Stans until his 4th season to even make the tourney. Jans has made it every season.Quote:

That's mismatching. What you ask of them is different from how you deliver the message. Some coaches, apparently including Jans, can't seem to grasp this. Different personalities respond differently to how the message is delivered. One trick pony coaches in terms of motivational strategy are never going to be all they can be.Quote:
