    People love to blame coaches but hate to call things what they are

    Carter makes a great move on his last miss ... but doesn’t do the fundamental of coming to a jump stop to get his balance

    Instead of getting a controlled on balance shot he gets an off balance shot that barely draws rim

    Will is all over him after the play about the jump stop

    Players got to make plays

    10 points in the paint at halftime. Against WSU.

    Unacceptable.

    The players absolutely suck, agree.

    Nowell still doesnt know how to do anything other than athlete, Hardy is a bench warming Pac12 PG, Tshonis shoots from his chest like a high school girl, Bey is the most Jag guy that has ever Jagged, Mcdaniels is constantly taking plays off and cant do anything other than be "long", wright has barely improved if at all, Timmons is a bench warming/practice center, Battle is a blackhole unadvised 3 pt shot, the zone defense sucks this year, the offense pretty much always sucks and consists of either Iso, low block or Horns...

    At some point, if all the players suck, the guys who are staying arent improving, you aren't bringing in new superior talent for next year, the offensive scheme continues to suck, and the defensive identity is completely destroyed... its the coach's fault.

    Sure, you can pick out plays here and there and say that the players fucked something up. Of course, it happens often on all teams. However, on the aggregate this is on the coaches. What I see watching this team play on offense is that what they are doing is extremely rudimentary. Very little motion, very little moving without the ball, poor ball movement. Basically it’s either a wild out of control drive, a tough pass to Stewart, or a jump shot. None of that is good. So what’s the simpler explanation, nearly all the roster is made up of low basketball IQ players who cannot learn how to play intelligently and within a coherent system, or that the coaches have not effectively implemented one? I’ll roll with the latter.
    Exactly, wtf are they even doing in practice??

    The offense is literally either ISO Stewart low block and then no movement so he gets doubled, ISO spread with a guard high, halfhearted Horns... THATS FUCKING IT... there is basically nothing else... which is fucking insane that there are shitty high school teams that run more efficient offensive sets than UW does.

    The low block stewart is the most infuriating because teams have been doubling him for fucking months now and we still have the guards dropping the ball in and then either standing fucking still or backing up so far that they take themselves out of being a scoring threat and an outlet for Stewart... its the dumbest fucking thing I have ever seen.

    Its obvious that the team basketball IQ is astronomically low but the offense has literally been 7th grade rudimentary levels all fucking year and they cant even do that correct.

    This team is easily the worst shooting team in the conference, abysmal from 3 and every Pac 12 coach defends to that.

    Only game they shot decent for a stretch was against Oregon in the first 3 or so quarters.

    Ty just needed the players to execute. Holy shit dude. You’re recycling the biggest doog reasons we all have mocked for years.

    Ty never showed any signs of success at UW ... but other than that your point makes a ton of sense (yawn)
