I'm reminded of what ex USC coach and ex Tampa Bay Buccaneer coach John McKay once said: McKay was asked what he thought of his team's "execution." He replied, "I'm all for it."
At the 2:30 mark, Holly should have jumped all over the referee for that clean block called a foul on Carter. That's why we get shafted so much IMO because we never hold the referee accountable.
Having Deshields this season serves as quite an eye opener meaning that this without her this assembly of McDonald's AA would not even be top 25. A revealing look at the current coaching abilities!
Were going to have to get some offensive rebounds and put backs to win this game. Va. Tech has far better shooters than we do luckily they are a turnover machine.
Good teams have offensive schemes and patterns,when a player gets the ball they know where their teammates are and where they are going, when our players get the ball they just stand there with a deer in the headlights look. No plan or offensive scheme, just stand or dribble and take a wild shot as the clock runs down. Need a coach that knows something about offense.
I can remember Reynolds and others being better offensive players when they first got to Tennessee you wonder what happened to them. Reynold's can't even hit the rim. If I'm coaching Va. Tech I try to double team Diamond and make these other players shoot. If they had shot thirty percent we'd have a 10 point lead.
Some of you are now admitting this is not working. It's going to be really ugly when thye start playing better teams if Holly persists in running this HS half court offensive (really) system.
Holly is too self-centered to admit that she cannot coach offense, therefore she will not hire an asst. who can. If i am correct, I think all her asst's were known for their ability to coach defense. Must have good defense, but if you cannot score you will never beat good offensively coached teams.
