Sad State of Bearcat Basketball

[leo from jersey]

Other than our baseline players, FG% is pretty poor for this current Bearcat team.

These may not be the latest stats available, but we could sure use two now I would think:

Josh Reed 23.8 minutes per game, 10.1 points, 4.7 rebounds, 0.9 assists, FG% 46
Skillings, 11.5 points per game, 6.5 rebounds, 2.5 assists, FG% 45.8

Skillings couldn't handle the urban Cincy - too much like Philly -- Waco is a religious town - lots of distractions for sure, but quite different. - There were major problems on the team in the past, but the administration has really tightened up the sports program.

Vince Lombardi, the Hall of Fame coach of the Green Bay Packers football team, was notorious for his emphasis on fundamentals. His teams won championships because they could block, tackle, and execute better than anyone else. It is said that once, frustrated by his team’s poor performance, he held up a football and said, “Gentlemen, this is a football!”

Perhaps CWM needs to see nothing in the game of BB is to be taken for granted. He must start at ground zero and start to teach and then demand the proper execution of the fundamentals. No offensive style will work until, you learn how to see the court, dribble, pass, rebound, screen and run the floor with sheer effort and enthusiasm. There are no quick fixes. The HS and AAU programs, for the most part, are not producing BB players.

I think that everyone should be able to dribble. Everyone should be able to pass. Otherwise, why are you out there?

Not for when we hit 2 threes for every 10 shots and instead of getting back on Defense, they mug to the cameras.

Sedz, what do you think of Casey Alexander @
Belmont ?

He was mentioned as a possible candidate last round too. I love him offensively. His teams have always given up a ton of threes on defense though, and that scares me. One thing Wes Miller does really well is defend the three point line. It would be tough to take a complete 180 in that area with the three becoming more important each year.

However, Alexander would possibly be bringing in different types of players to UC. Maybe he could get both basketball players and athletes.
