At one point or another earlier this season, pretty much every single kid on this team except Champ was maligned. Some(IE Cole is too slow to play at this level, etc) more than others. Criticism is one thing, but writing kids off so early in the season is a whole other. So happy to see these kids grow as individuals and as a unit. Excited to see them continue to grow.
Maybe we should have faith in a coach that has never had a loosing record in 19 seasons. A coach that has had to recruit against some of the biggest sharks in the business in the SEC. Maybe we should give him and his experienced staff a little more credit than we do as opposed to having knee jerk reactions when things are not going our way.
paultzman put up a chart earlier showing the players stats this season to date. We have 9 players that contribute on this team. 2 are playing at all BE level, something no one and I repeat no one on this board predicted. 4 more in Cole, Dunn, Williams, Moore are averaging in double figures or are borderline approaching double figures. Wusu is playing at a level far above anything anyone could have predicted and may make the BE all rookie team. And this is a guy who bordered on being a 2 star recruit. Roberts has certainly improved as of late and the Duke has been a little bit of a disappointment. So 7 players are playing above their rankings while the Duke and Roberts are contributing but still finding their way.
clearly the man knows what he is doing. And by the way zero drama, I repeat zero drama something we are so unfamiliar with following our last two coaches.
just remember we are never as good as our last win or as poor as our last defeat.
Listen to the words of our dear sage Panther.
