The general "inexperience" argument is absolutely now lame, but I think the "Bz has no ability" is also pretty lame given reports that the coaches and players actually like the guy. There's no real reason to act like the guy has zero talent and that people hate him.
IMO it all goes back to something I heard Coach K say. Success in college basketball depends on player experience, leadership on and off the court, but mostly the ability to overcome adversity which is why the other two matter. We have substantial player experience and based on Devin's comments, CMM has been the on court leader, which is why we've been playing more like a team as the season goes on.
The problem was overcoming adversity. When their on court leader left the game, they stepped up. When our on court leader got injured, McKie stepped up, but the young guys seemed to take on Bz's introverted, reactionary, passive aggressive personality....and dwelled on the excuses instead of playing through the adversity. I feared that as soon as Devin missed that FT so badly. Look at Devin's comments. They are more worried about the community's reaction to the game than anything, so Bz must be talking about it.....probably not overtly but it's coming through.
Bz is simply not a guy that can lead any team through adversity, he can only lead when not facing it. You can't be a college coach (or IMO any effective head coach) and not be able to lead through adversity. This GT loss sealed his fate....as if it were going to be any different anyway.
