Tau, my gripe had much less to do with in game coaching as much as preparation. The staff should have seen from the UNX game that we were atrocious at handling pressure. It’s what lost that game and it’s what cost us in the NCAAT. We turned the ball over and looked foolish. The announcers lamented at how poorly we handled it and they were dead on. The turnovers on pressure killed us just as badly as the missed free throws. Plus it wound up being a mental thing that overwhelmed the kids. It looked as if we had never practiced breaking pressure. And that is on Gott and staff. If he didn’t recognize we needed to fix that after the UNX game then someone who works for him sure should have!
