As far as comments, as fans, we can only comment on what we have seen. And what we have seen so far, is well, not good. In fact, so bad, it is hard to have faith and project. But seeing X in the 2nd half, with Toney and Champagnie, there was some glimmer, but still it was Monmouth.
Again, I am not trying to pile on, I am just stunned......I don't know what happens. Guys improve from year 1 to year 2. At least most. So far, no one has. It's early. Maybe it is partly confidence. I thought maybe the Nicholls State game could have been a good thing, a kick in the ass, but maybe it was the opposite.
We are just a really poor shooting team, which is why I would like to see us get much more aggressive, and press and try to get more transition buckets. We saw WVU do that a few years ago when Huggins realized he did not have a team of good shooters, so he pressed all over the place. I am just not sure we are deep enough to do this for 40 minutes, consistently.
Like I said, X has left me speechless and the photo I posted with Capel having his head in his hands is the way I feel watching this team.
It's early. Hopefully we are playing our best basketball when the calendar says 2020.
