Coaches don’t turn someone into a dominant player at best they help a player achieve their potential
Coaches mistake diamonds for lumps of coal sometimes but they never actually turn a lump of coal into a diamond
If they could then Saban and Gino are spending way too much time and travel on recruiting
Vic's gonna win because he's a winner. He took a program that had never accomplished anything to where it is nationally respected and feared. Of all our teams I worry not about our women's basketball team being a winner. It's a culture here now.
So you loose twice against them playing the same way? Gotcha. That's great coaching indeed.Quote:

I agree Commerce. Good post.Quote:

On top of that, we ran our girls full court every possession. May want to save some legs in a tourney setting. Specially against a team not as good like ASU.Quote:

Maybe he didnt change cause he knew Oregon was going to light us up on 3. Maybe people had to leave their person at the 3 line cause number 20 would have taken us off the dribble every time. Maybe he knew putting the freshmen pg out there to hit some threes and keep 3 people off of T wasn't going to work. Who knows. Loved this team, but when you run into a team that has you number......well its over.
GotchaQuote:

The recruiting sites said they were 5 star playersQuote:

You say he won't have a star player? Watch Rickea Jackson in a few years and then come talk.
Great post!Quote:

Most of the time the best team wins, especially playing in the familiar surroundings. The Ducks were and are the better overall team. They have good size, quickness, very athletic ball handlers and good shooters. Yes we would have a better chance in Starkville, but regardless if they shoot 13-26 from the 3 point line and shoot free throws like they do it would still be close and IFFY.
IF there is one mistake I see in what Vic does in Coaching doesn't have to do with x and o's, it's his style of hard nose practice that drives players but can also wear them down physically and mentally. I do think the last 4 or 5 minutes we looked a little physically leg weary and mentally fatigued. We had a few lapses that we don't usually do. You can disagree as I may be wrong, but I know from experience one time in my Coaching basketball, I had a team that should have won State. I look back on it now many years later realizing I over worked my team and down the stretch we couldn't make plays that we normally did. I think we had a little lack of depth needed, losing Bibby was huge from outside shooting and depth. We only had one or two players coming off the bench who helped with scoring.
I think Vic will look to be more athletic in the future, will get better or more shooters and we will be more athletic like UConn, ND and the Ducks. We were the "power team" in the Elite 8, Baylor is close but they may be a little more athletic.
We played a ton of basketball starting with going overseas and the many hard nose practices.
It's Vic's style, I don't really have any problems with the way he Coaches and disciplines the players and teams. He is one of the top Coaches in America.
I watched the Ducks play the Jack Rabbits. they scored 63 points.. Are the jack Rabbits better on defense than Us? The Ducks were 4 for 20 from the 3. One thing the Jack Rabbits did was not let SI do it all. You have to stop her dribble drive or stop Her 3 point shooting. We let Her do what every She wanted. We wore our player out by pressing and it was not effective. Should have stopped. I'm really disappointed Vic made zero adjustments.
