Basketball question?


Mar 13, 2019, 5:09 PM

Why do we end up with defensive minded coaches who recruit defensive players that can not shoot. Would it not be better to recruit shooters and teach them to play defense? Just saying.

OP was defense oriented in the aspect of his hull court traps, but had a MUCH faster paced and higher scoring offense. Much more exciting style to watch that packed the stands. Just couldn’t win in March.

Easy, because unlike football, we are a 3rd tier basketball program. A 3rd tier that is punching as a weak second tier. We rank 14th in basketball investment in the conference and didn't bother to actually hire a basketball coach until the 1950s. We used to pad assistant football coach salaries by giving them the basketball team. (Kinda interesting if Dabo could coach baskeball under Bowden).


You want a good football analogy: We are BC football of the basketball world. Sure some folks want more but what we are doing is nonperforming with mid-range talent... and the better talent gets and excepts offers from other programs willing to invest.
