As an R-MC fan, kudos to the Tigers, particularly Turner King. Great performance.
It was a hard fought game, but the Jackets were outplayed and frankly outcoached in this one. Our shooting was woeful and right now, unlike HSC and Mr. King, the team seems to be missing a leader - someone who will take charge and put the team on his back.
I am not sure though if that is a player issue and coaching issue. I understand we have a deep team, with players deserving of time. But I frankly was thoughly baffled by the rotations Coach Davis used last night. Players seemed to be coming in and out constantly which looked to me defeated the purpose - no flow, no momentum ever was built. Very disjointed performance.
This team has seemed to disregress from the beginning of the season - not sure why whether it is fatigue or lack of confidence, but something seemed to be missing last night.
Hopefully they can take stock of themselves and begin to right the ship. Right now it looks like unless they win the Tournament, we will have another 20 win season with no NCAA appearance.
