All the signs were there last week...

[HognitiveDissonance]

Helpless and porous defense.
Sloppy ball-handling(well, we didn't fumble tonight)
Just generally looking dull and uninspired. We were like an 8-cylinder firing on 5.
I posted the team had already taken on the identity of its coach. Player's coach he may be, but unfortunately, the only thing kids respond to is someone bearing down on their carcasses with the wrath of God if they screw up. Sad but true. There's just too much going on in the lives of 18-to-22 year olds...school, girlfriends, partying, etc...that if someone isn't in their face demanding accountability, a la Saban, Petrino, Stoops, and many others, things will slide into mediocrity in a hurry.
