It’s coach speak
Nothing more
You rather he blast the players ?
He makes an excuse and then says he isn’t making an excuse. Get this guy out of here. I’m surprised he didn’t use the War in the Ukraine as an excuse for his team not being able to focus. Capel is an awful coach and role model.
That’s not blasting individualsHe did. He said, "We need to get better players."

Not an excuseLOL!!! There he goes again, making lame excuses for his incompetence.

We are playing a walk-on Extended minutes-
Our talent level and depth clearly is not good enough
Why does everyone say he’s likeable? When have you ever met a dukie that was likeable? He is a dukie through and through. And he has an open contempt for this place not being as good as Duke? Why is he likeable? Because he shares the obvious view that Black Lives Matter?He's good at PR and coach speak and he's a likable guy. Realistically, his career is probably in terminal condition and he's hanging on for whatever money he can milk out of Pitt before he's fired/bought out. So sad this is where we are.
If you think any coach isn’t always saying that - you’re pretendingIf I hear my coach say, "We need to get better players," I probably wouldn't want to play for him next year.
I’ve met plenty of likeable Dukies since I lived in that area for 14 yearsWhy does everyone say he’s likeable? When have you ever met a dukie that was likeable? He is a dukie through and through.

He’s out of touch with reality, his team and the common man. Don’t find him likeable at all.

Hell Dave wannstedt literally said “we need to run faster “ while getting boat races again by wvu at halftime

No one “likes” listening to constant excuse makingAgreed! You hit the nail on the head.
He has reached Stallings-like level of dislike in my book.,He’s got to go and today won’t be soon enough.

AbsolutelyWhen he was hired, I was upbeat and wanted him to succeed, partly because he seemed sincere and likeable. Now I find him irritating and annoying and very insincere. He is totally out of touch with reality with anything.
Surprised to some extent some players are not already in the portal.
Clint Hurdle made similar comments and you saw what happened to him.
JJ Redick turned out pretty likable as far as athletes go and I absolutely hated him at Duke.Why does everyone say he’s likeable? When have you ever met a dukie that was likeable?

Hoping for the same hereClint Hurdle made similar comments and you saw what happened to him.
I mean hell as far as unlikeable because he’s such a competitive Dick - Christian Laettner qualifies -JJ Redick turned out pretty likable as far as athletes go and I absolutely hated him at Duke.
Like Capel, Wannstedt should have recognized the team’s weaknesses and fixed them before they became an issue during the season.If you think any coach isn’t always saying that - you’re pretending
