“The sad part is that it is a game where you really cannot coach,” Weber said. “They take the coaching out of your hands. Those guys have to play fast, but you might put them in spots. One time, they trapped the ball and screened. One time, they run-and-jump you, then they switch a ball-screen. You have to keep making the next play and when you get in the paint you have to make that right pass.”

I guess we don't coach in practice anymore, or maybe we don't practice idk

The fact that this thread exists is yet another reason to hate our stupid coach.  I'm melting down here i realize but just once, just ONE rough ridin' TIME i'd like to hear "i did a poor job of getting our guys ready to play tonight" or something similar.  Maybe he's said it, but i sure as hell don't recall.

I said it in the game thread, but I hate how we just hold the ball when we get it in against the press. He has them so scared to attack and it infuriates me.

It's no surprise he thinks his players should pass it when they get in the lane.

you clearly missed the part where oscar stated this is not something that can be coached.  When you lose, there's really no coaching that can be done.  The game played itself out the way it would have even if the ghost of John rough ridin' Wooden was on the sideline.

My aunt use to have a midget weiner dog who seemed.to yipyap for no good reason other than to make noise, and he was always whizzing on things.  I think it's name was Oscar.

The thing is, we were much better without him today.

We’ll see if that holds true since he’s out indefinitely now.

I wonder if when he trots out the "it is hard to be a freshman point guard" whether he remembers to bring up the Trae Young caveat.

Odds oscar went home and popped the champagne when he learned Kam may be lost for the season?  Eliminates any pressure he might have been feeling to win games.  I mean who can be expected to win without your starting point guard?  We're never getting rid of this [redacted].

Its fun to make fun of the Brucecuses and think he's going to be here forever and all that, but the guy has been fired once under similar circumstances. He may not feel a ton of heat yet, but its creeping in and will only compound itself as the season goes along with each loss. I'm not saying that to feel sorry for the guy making $2+ mil per, but he's not popping champagne with after losing one his best players and he's not just here to collect said paycheck. He wants to win and keep his job and he knows that this team took a huge hit, especially if Kam is gone for the year.

well we saw him get fired and immediately thought "hey that would work for us" so I think he's good as long as he matches that performance. And even w/o Kam we aren't going to be as bad as that last Illinois season (IMO)
