Can we all agree that our record wouldn't be any different with any other coach?
What in the world is your point?

That a meltdown today is silly. We won. Only game we've lost is to a great team.
Serious question and not a PI; do you not know enough about basketball to see the problems? Saying we won and that should be good enough is at best ignorant. Would you be good with a 3 point win at Prairie View A&M? If so you might want to sit these conversations out. GW is terrible, terrible by any measure. I've been as pro-"we're going to be good this year" as anyone on this board. We have some very real problems, once again this team showed that not only are they challenged to score, but they have times where they are completely disinterested in guarding. They are soft, which is the worst indictment.
If you saw anything to be encouraged about outside of "we won" I'd love to hear it.
I'll admit, I don't have HBBIQ. I've always been a baseball first, football second, basketball third person, but I'm planning on being in these discussions this year.
I see the problems absolutely. We looked completely disinterested in the 1st half, and frankly we could've been down more if we weren't getting cheap air ball put backs from Nino. After Will's 3 that put us up 7 or whatever, I said that GW wouldn't be able to score enough and we'd win by 12-15. Yeah, we don't defend well, but I'm hopeful we'll improve.
I'm encouraged that Angel took over the game, and won. I absolutely think that we should be encouraged by his play in the last 10 minutes.
My point was more that choosing today to decide "The cupboard is bare, I'M OUT!" is stupid.
The next 3 games will tell us a lot.
