Thoughts on MBK Program

Here's the issue I have with Howland. We are going to have a hard time accumulating more talent on a team than we have over the past few years.

The 2018-2019 team had Perry, Peters, Weatherspoon, Woodard, Ado, Stewart, Carter, and Holman. And that team couldn't get out of the 1st round of the tournament.

Howland can still develop talent. But he can't take that talent and consistently beat inferior opponents. Ranked wins are very hard to come by as well. We just don't play like a good team consistently enough under Howland.

I don't know that he will ever take us past the first round of the NCAA Tournament. Your best hope is next year your guards and Tolu all stay and you can put enough pieces around that nucleus to take you far. But even then, it still boils down to the same question. Do you trust Howland's ability to coach us into a consistent winner? And that answer to me is a definitive no.

It seems to me like the only way we're ever going to have a chance to go to a Sweet 16 is to have a senior laden group at about 3-4 positions and then have 1-2 early NBA guys.

The issue i have is that our offense never seems to take the next step. Ado is almost exaxtly who he has always been. I would have loved to see his game extend into a strong pick and roll.
