  1. We struggle against those teams because we lack that type of athleticism. In DI it is more about athletes than bball players. The ability to beat people off the dribble or jump over people is what gets it done against DI talent. Our girls are good DII athletes but we have very few DI-type athletes, if any, in our program. Kimbrough for sure, but she wouldn't be a 5 in the Big 10 or Big 12. Guinn, maybe, but she'd be a 2 at the next level. After that, who? Next years crop is interesting, we'll see if the coaches made the adjustment.

    [/quote Agree. but teams that scout us well know that when we run our 4 out 1 in offense all they have to do is play the passing lanes and switch on our screens. All we do is pass and screen away so teams just switch and their right in the passing lanes. We have done more on the ball screens the past couple of years and that opens up the court more and makes the defense at least think a little more about how to defend it. Plus you can end up with more miss-matches.

  2. I watched the game and we could not do anything on offense. We struggle against teams that pressure and over play the passing lanes. I wish we could adjust to that part of the game better but we don't, and that's part coaching. The girls play like robots sometimes because they are told the ball needs to go to a certain spot so they end up forcing things. then it's a turnover and their on the bench and their confidence is shattered. Roebuck is a good coach but seems to stubborn at times to adjust to certain things like staying in man to man defense to long. No doubt that the girls are mainly to blame, but i wish that roebuck would take some of the blame just once in awhile. He did get out coached badly last game.
