Seeing a game plan in action takes me back to the Floyd/Eustachy days. It seems like Freddie has picked up a little something from the many coaches he's worked with or played under. There's a bit of Johnny, Floyd, Eustachy, etc, in his game.
Scoring over 70 in every game this year is impressive, and having a high power offense will surely be one more selling point for recruits.

CFH is a top quality coach and person. The reaction to the decision to not foul around here frankly reminds me of Hawkeye fans.:sad:
We've moved up to number two in ESPN power rankings, with CFH mentioned as one of the most underrated coaches in the country.http://espn.go.com/blog/collegebasketballnation/post/_/id/72320/big-12-power-rankings-17

I think we all need to take a balanced approach to this. First off, anyone that thinks Fred was the wrong hire or can't coach are off their rocker. Second, anyone who thinks as fans you can't question anything or it means you think he shouldn't be here is also nuttier than a fruit cake. We should have won this game, obviously in this situation, we should have fouled knowing the outcome, coach made the wrong call in the last 8 seconds, but man, did he coach one whale of a game the rest of it. NO ONE gave us a chance going in and it turns out, we should have won. So, quit jumping all over those who might question a coaching move here or there and also don't throw out the "Fred can't coach" crap as both reactions are as worthless as a poopy flavored lolipop.
You can certainly question a coaching move, but understand that even in the coaching community fouling in that situation is not the no-brainer that many posters are making it out to be. People are still going to disagree with people who attack Fred with Post titles like THIS LOSS IS ON YOU, FRED! (Emphasis is OP's) and the like. It is not a no-brainer and Fred is not woefully wrong for choosing to go with at least half of the coaches out there who believe not fouling is the way to win in that situation.
In short, everyone has the right to disagree with Fred and everyone else has the right to disagree with them. Everyone has the right to essentially call Fred an idiot for the way he chose to play it and everyone else has the right to call them an idiot for calling Fred an idiot.
I am looking forward to years when the CFH can return a core of players and only has to mix in new wrinkles instead of revamping the team every year.
Hoiberg said they were told to switch the screens and they didn't do it. if Babb was expecting a switch, he did the right thing by chasing him into the screen. He should have then picked up the screener.
EDIT: nevermind... I misread your post.
Babb said in an interview after game that they were supposed to switch the screen. He did what he was told to do. Go back and watch that play again and you will see McGee watching the dribble hand off and forgetting to pick up McLemore.
