It doesn't? We don't run plays, we can't rebound, and he obviously doesn't realize Lucca can't play defense. Yeah it has nothing to do with coaching. :no:

Again, please, tell me who has played defense tonight. Brackins isn't. Dendy isn't. Gilstrap isn't. Lucca isn't. Christopherson isn't. What's your solution?

If we finish the game down by this much, it will be about what I expected.

I agree - it has EVERYTHING to do with coaching. Still don't know what our plan is on offense.

Craig Brackins: 6 points, 2 rebounds. All we need to see. 61-46 Duke.

Again, coaching isn't the issue here. Gilstrap stepping out of bounds. Colvin hitting the guy in the fourth row on an out route. Being completely overmatched on the floor.

I'll give you those, but the terrible rebounding, lack of mental and physical toughness, poor rebounding, lack of a coherent offensive scheme...those are coaching issues.

Next season

Similar to when McCarney was replaced, I feel next season is a throw away season for ISU baskteball. What I mean by this is that there will not be a whole lot of talent here (again) and McD will struggle to get a 4-12 conference record. (again) What I am saying is if you want to get a new coach, after this season is the time to do it. Expectations will be low with a new coach and low talent just as they would be with McD next season.

If Jamie can admit he made a mistake, looking for a new coach at the end of the season is best thing that can be done for this program. I am not basing this off of tonights performance but performance as a whole for this program. Does anyone really think this team can get better than a 6-10 record in conference this season based on how McD has coached the previous seasons and this season?
